About Oakhill Leisure

Oakhill Leisure is close to the historic market town of Newark and the cathedral city of Lincoln. Set within 70 acres of managed woodlands, lake and fields, you're free to roam, relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. There are 20 touring pitches with electric hook ups, all on well cut and maintained grass. Tents are also welcome and there are grassed non electric pitches for campers. Ask to pitch up in one of the rally fields, sorry no electric hook up here, and you will be well away from it all. A 20-30 minute walk takes you around the fishing lake, woodlands and fields on site and makes the perfect excuse for some daily exercise. If you can't be bothered to pitch your own tent, try the site's glamping arc ready tent which overlooks the fishing lake. It sleeps two comfortably with two sofa beds, a barbecue fridge and microwave. There is a lovely outdoor area with table and chairs provided overlooking the lake.

Oakhill Leisure is open from 01/01 to 07/08 and 08/09 to 31/12 in 2024 and from 01/01 to 06/08 and 08/09 to 31/12 in 2025.

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass PitchesDec 2024

Would highly recommend to anyone, it was very quiet and there was plenty of space. It was well run and very easy to book, all was in order when we arrived. One of the best toilets and showers block ever seen

Motorhome - Electric Grass Touring PitchesOct 2024

Somewhat difficult to find. The Sat-Nav use of postcode brings you to the village. There is no listing for the road used as their address on our Sat-Nav - by chance, a road in the village (with a different name) leads onto, or was formerly called, the named road, but any information about the roads suitability for large vehicles is not known, like height, width or weight restrictions not known or given. Largely given over to sited caravans, but there are spaces for tourers and motorhome/campervans. Warden lives on site, which has gated barriers. Good facilities block. Created for fishermen, with lake next door said to contain sizeable fish. There are walks around the site, rally fields and a play area for children but 3 miles from civilisation.

Site's response

Thank you for leaving us an overall site positive review. For some reason, car sat-navigations are not the most reliable, Google maps would have brought you to the correct location. There is also a pub, Co-op and local take always just over a mile away. So not quite as far as you mentioned. We are glad that overall, you enjoyed your stay with us.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Superb service was provided by the 2 staff who run the site. The washing up and shower facilities are new and kept spotless during the day. A number of caravans occupy the site but not all are occupied at any given time so availability of showers and washing up is excellent. A great base from which to explore Lincolnshire!

Site's response
