 Warm welcome on arrival. Pitch was brilliant, reasonably sheltered from wind,
Toilet and shower block were clean, although they were quite chilly late at night and first thing in the morning.
Childs play area is basic, just a few swings but it kept my 7 & 2 year olds entertained for hours along with many other children this weekend.
A lot of the pitches had a view of the play area allowing the kids to go play without the need to follow them all the time.
Nights were quiet with no main roads nearby. Will definitely pay this campsite another visit in the summer when the weather is a bit better.

Having booked for 4 days we ended up staying for six.B What a gem.
Lovely sheltered site with possibly the best dog walks we have ever found. Good value at £12 a night for us two and dog,
Spotless facilities and very welcoming and helpful owner,
Close to Mablethorpe and the quieter beaches, I only wish we lived a bit closer so we could go every weekend !
Will definitely go back.

Fantastic! A lovely site which felt very open, well laid out with alcoves of trees to separate the areas of the site. Upon arriving Chris greeted us (and could often be seen round the site chatting) nice friendly chap, only rules are to be respectful and clean up after yourselves.
The ladies showers were basic design but as had proper showers I was very pleased (didn't have to press a button in). The men's did have the push button however. As another reviewer mentioned there was a free hairdryer. Also a kettle and washer.
My kids spent hours playing out on the swings and with kites (all the kids seemed to have one). A very relaxing holiday.
The only fault we found was that the entrance got very muddy (to the point we thought the car and caravan were stuck), yes it had rained quite a lot in the week we were there, but a bit of gravel would resolve the problem.
Would we go again - OH YES!

What a fantastic campsite and great value for money!
On arrival the very friendly owner greeted us and gave us a choice of where we pitched our tent. Despite it being school holidays it wasn't too busy and you get plenty of room to picth your tent.
The site is well sheltered and the pitches didn't seem to get waterlogged despite some heavy rain!
The site is situated in an extremely quiet area with dog walks easily accessible straight from the site. It is a short drive to the nearest shop and pub so best to take your supplies with you. The site is within easy reach of Mablethorpe, Skegness and Sutton-on-Sea. Mablethorpe beach is excellent for exercising your dog as there are no restrictions on what times of the year you can use it.
The facilities are good. Ladies have two showers and two toilets. Men have two toilets and one shower. Showers and toilets are separate and were clean at all times. There is a laundry and hairdryer provided for the ladies. One sink is provided for pot washing which was adequate. There is also a fridge and freezer provided for campers to use free of charge which is very useful for supplies and ice packs.
We had a fantastic stay at West End Farm, would recommend it and will definitely visit again.

Thanks to the Sat Nav hint on their personal website, we were able to find the campsite without any problem at all.
What a lovely place, set back from the main road down a small lane, it is enclosed by trees providing some shelter from the wind.
The owner greeted us (a very friendly gentleman call Chris), who pointed out the facilities, which included free usage of the freezer for ice-blocks and the fridge in the reception hut.
The site is very well maintained with a small play area for children which my daughter loved, a clean and daily maintained shower and toilet block with piping hot showers!. There is also a laundry room which to my surprise had a free hairdrier for use (no camping hair for me!)and to the rear of the block an undercover sink for dish-washing. There is also an elsan disposal point and water points around the park.
The campsite itself is relatively flat so no worries about sloping ground for pitching your tent.
The site is kept secured by a large entrance gate and security device. Access is given after you have been to reception.
We visited a local hotel for a drink which was no more than 5 minutes drive from the site and a trip to Mablethorpe took no more than 15-20 minutes.
The picturesque Wolds are very close by. The local town of Louth is well worth a visit, especially on a Saturday as its market day!
Basically, our second trip of the year, and yet again we came up trumps.
We will definitely visit again.

One of the best campsites that I've ever stayed at.
Friendly welcome by (I'm assuming) the owner who offered us a choice of a a few pitches. The site was busy, but seemed spacious due to several area being separated by trees.
The ground is top quality - grassy, soft and well maintained.
There is a pot and pan washing area, male/female toilets and one shower for the men (unsure how many for for women). Even though it was busy, there was no queue for the toilets/shower. The shower block is centrally located so I'm guessing people could see if it was busy and use them when they could.
The men's shower was ok. It's a push-button tap which has a short delay and the temperature did fluctuate, but not extremely. There is also FREE use of a fridge for sealed containers and a freezer for ice blocks. There are also EHUs if required.
Children and dogs are welcome. There is a small playground (a few swings) for the kids plus enough open space for running around. Again, the areas separated by the trees meant that other campers had privacy if required.
The site is secured by a keycode gate overnight so you can come and go as you please. There is no road noise or light pollution.
Unlike other sites I've stayed at the years, West End Farm is the least stuffy. There was no lecture about rules or curfews. Despite it being busy with a mixture of clientèle (couples, same sex groups, families, retires), everybody staying there respected each other.
I had a very pleasant two night stay at West End Farm and would strongly recommend it to anybody looking for a pitch in the north-east. £5 per person, per night, is an absolute steal for this gem.

Just returned from a weeks stay at west end farm 4 adults 3 kids and 4 dogs. We had a fantastic time and all loved the quiet well sheltered site.
Toilets and showers really clean laundry was well used and had no problems.
Chris the owner was really helpful and friendly.
Been visiting this area of Lincolnshire for 36 years now and never want to come home.
We have booked again for bank holiday and are really looking forward to it.

We stayed here during the first week of the summer school holidays and had an absolutely brilliant time! The site is beautiful. Lots and lots of space for children to run around safely and a little park, which kept our two children entertained for hours!
Chris, the owner is very friendly and regularly wanders around to ensure people are happy! The showers are 'basic' but very clean and there is a washing machine, which you do not need tokens for!
The area itself is well worth a tour around. Mablethorpe is a typical seaside town, but the beach is fantastic and the sand is lovely. Louth is a really pretty little town with lots of little 'boutiquey' type shops. Lincoln is definitely worth a trip out. The cathedral is amazing, although it is £6 to get in. You can go in to the entrance just to get a sense of this wonderful building.
We would definitely consider going back here.

We stayed at West End Farm for 5 nights at the end of July. It was quite a rainy week but the site didn't suffer from any waterlogging problems (that we noticed).
The site is surrounded by trees and is therefore very secluded. Entry is secured by a padlocked (key coded) gate. One of the camping fields for tents without electric hookup is before the padlocked gate so it's not as secure. However, the owner gives you a choice where to pitch so the decision to pitch in this field is your own.
On arrival you are directed to the reception area, which is a shed sited in the camping field near the farmhouse. This building contains a fridge and freezer for campers' use (free of charge) and tourist information leaflets. Very handy.
The toilet and shower facilities are situated in a large wooden shed-like building, and were more than adequate for us: clean toilets (two per sex); two showers for women and one for men; a fresh supply of drinking water (but only located at this block); dishwashing facilities; a laundry with sink and free washing machine (exceptional!); and chemical toilet disposal point. Hot water was plentiful and the building was warm. I only had to queue for the toilets a few times, which is to be expected in school holidays.
We were pleased that there was a small playground for children (4 swings) and a large central grassy area for football, cricket, or other games. This is a great site for children of all ages, who meet easily and start playing together nicely.
The campsite owner Chris was on hand daily to provide tourist advice or just chat with. He also cleaned the facilities himself, which was nice to see. He can't provide hot sunny weather though (I asked).
Unfortunately, the site doesn't have a shop to sell basics such as milk and bread or camping accessories, and this is something the owner should consider for the future because local shops are scarce. The nearest supermarkets were in Mablethorpe (Lidl and Co-op) and Louth (Morrisons and Co-op), both over 15 minutes away. Personally, I'd recommend shopping in Mablethorpe because driving around Louth is a nightmare!
Nice things to see in the area are Hubbards Hills in Louth (an area of outstanding natural beauty with fields for picnics and a stream running through to paddle in). Mablethorpe has a nice beach and the beach huts are worth seeing (although the town itself is a bit run down in places). Some camping neighbours recommended Sutton on Sea as a lovely town and sandy beach.

We visit this site at least twice a year because we love it.
Quite but not too far away from the coast,loads of walks nearby.
The owner is very friendly and leaves you alone as long as you respect his wishes.
We take 3 kids,2 dogs and they never get bored.
We would recommend this site to anyone that likes a bit of peace and quiet to just wind down and enjoy the surrounding area.
Always plenty of hot water for showers and pot washing, freezer / fridge and laundry on site all free of charge.
Small play area for the kids but they always find something to amuse themselves and keep busy.
