Big place but still seemed quiet. Love the huge pitches and the tidy shrubs. Enjoy 👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Very tidy site. I always say if the look good in winter, think what they are like in summer 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev

[@gvbalajee]

yes must visit WAGTAIL COUNTRY PARK Grantham Lincolnshire

[@PoshcatsCamping]

We enjoyed it. I am sure it will get busy in the summer 😃🚐 Trev

Hi Trevor & sue, looks lovely, have a lovely time there with Bob & jenny. Lots of love to you both. Linda xx

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thanks Linda, we did have a lovely time with great company and a bit of winter sunshine 😃🚐 Trev

[@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel]

What a lovely peaceful looking place love those hedged pitches , nice lodges and on site bar / cafe , hopefully one for us in the near future 👍 thanks for the site tour 😀 Mike & kirsty

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thanks guys, there’s no shortage of countryside around this campsite. We thought it would be good for cycling in summer 😃 Trev

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Nice video, you did a good job with the details.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Forgot to mention free wifi 🤣🤣 It was a great site, really good choice 👍🏻 Trev

[@HitchUpAndTow]

Looks like a very nice park and reasonably priced, might have to add this one to our list. Stay safe Mark and Coral 👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

It’s very nice at this park. Ask for a disabled pitch near the lake and facilities near where I stood on pitch 12. The site is pretty level and there’s nice views from your van there. The access road is a little narrow but you are used to it with your experience of CLs etc 👍🏻😃 Trev

[@stewchesman5259]

Looks a really nice site Trev. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your time ;))

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you Stew, really appreciate your comments 😃🚐 Trev

[@lindsaybenison813]

Nice wee stop for a few days, thanks for sharing, it is not warm up here at the moment

[@PoshcatsCamping]

It’s chilly here but now in Derbyshire and it’s been 14 deg C so spring is definitely on its way 😃🚐 Trev

[@mavicsteve9275]

Actual speed is so much better, little and often that’s what we like😊😊

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you, I think the dashcam was a bit long this time. 🚐 safe travels 👍🏻Trev

[@RickandHeather]

What a brilliant site that looked, definitely one to remember when we’re that way on 😊

[@PoshcatsCamping]

It’s as good as it looks. Not overpriced and is very respectable. The pub shown at the end is a short drive from the site but in summer it’s probably walkable 😃🚐 Trev

[@RickandHeather]

@@PoshcatsCamping walking back is always the issue 🤣

[@mpaws]

Loved that you didn't speed up the driving part so I could see the scenery. The park looks really nice (I also watched on Bob and Jenny's channel) and the pub food looked delicious. A very nice video thank you.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you 😊 We have had a great time with Bob and Jenny. Such great company and so well organised 😉🚐 Trev

[@ruthkirby9277]

What a beautiful site you picked. I haven’t watched Bob and Jenny’s vlog yet but did you walk to the pub or drive? That portion of fish and chips was very appealing and a very good excuse to visit. It’s just 30 minutes drive from us so could be a low cost trip with not much fuel used😂. Thanks for sharing your visit, regards Ruth

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Good idea to keep it local. It’s surprising how a local weekend can really help to recharge and rest for a busy week ahead. We took the car to the pub but in good weather I think it’s walkable with a fair wind and not too many adult beverages 😉🤣 Trev

[@yorkshiremotoroamers]

Beautiful site. Stop off here a couple of years ago - must go back.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

It’s really nice Kev, we had 3 nights midweek and it was really quiet. Lovely spot to relax next to the lake listening to the waterfowl 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev

[@HappyPlaceCamping]

Lovely drive! Looks like a really pretty campground. Smurf is such a pretty vehicle. I really love the blue. I get so tired of white RV's. Browns seems to be the next most popular color. Interesting that there are homes there. Looks like a decent little lake. They are some pretty nice sized sites. And it's nice that you have some greenery at our site too. I really dislike the campgrounds here that are all concrete. Or mostly. I want grass and trees. OH man, ya just had to end with food, didn't you? LOL. That fish looks amazing! What was in the rectangular dishes with the tomato on top?

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you for your lovely comments. We are so happy with Smirf and recently looked at some other RVs but couldn’t imaging trading him for a new one 😳 It very cold camping now but we keep cosy in the van 🚐 Trev

[@debbiel6443]

Thanks for this Trevor. This site is very close to two karting circuits. Very handy for us!! I wonder if it was karts you could hear and not dirt bikes? If it was a Wednesday evening and the weather was calm it could have been that.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Ah certainly could have been carts. Not a problem noise though as it was far enough away. Could be a handy stop-over for you. 👍🏻🚐🙂 Trev

[@debshamish6533]

Lovely large open pitches - home from home Bow Top Gypsy caravan (#Appleby 🤣). Another one for the list of possible stop overs when en route down south. Thanks Trev 👍🍻🚐

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Facilities are lovely and we enjoyed being by the lake. Safe travels Debs 😃🚐 Trev

[@suzybeetravels]

Looks like a stunning site. Wouldn't fancy the access road it looks really narrow on camera. Does look pretty though 💜xx

[@PoshcatsCamping]

We didn’t find the access road too much of a problem despite some of the road surface needing attention with countless potholes. Pity, as the campsite can’t do anything about the public roads. There are a few passing spots and there’s very little traffic up and down the roads near the campsite as they are not the main roads through the villages. It was a nice winter location 😃 Trev

[@birdnest5814]

Really nice place. Love that dog walking area and the lake. Pitches are big and I like the hedge in between. Good tour👍😊💕

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you, it’s a pleasure to walk around such a lovely campsite. The lake really adds to it 😃🚐 Trev

[@andrew-karens-adventures]

Hi Trev & Sue - Now that's a coincident just watching your video & what pops up on my picture app from 6 years ago - Us at Wagtail Country Park in Bessie the MH - access road doesn't look any better forgot how nice the site is, certainly lots of improvements have been done since our visit 6 years ago, thank you for showing us around 👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thanks Andrew, yes a lovely spot. A great coincidence too 👍🏻😃🚐 Trev

[@LeisureBit]

Looks a cracking site, really clean and decent facilities. The food made our mouths water at the end 😂 - lovely video and looks a great site - one for the list 👍 All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thanks guys. The Stag was the pub. A good walk or a short drive. We chose to go in the car but absolutely delicious food and pretty reasonable too 😃🚐 Trev

[@patgillmore8460]

Looks a lovely site but the bad condition single track access road would put us off ! There didn't seem to be adequate passing places if you met a motorhome/tractor coming this other way, unless you wanted to incur some adventure stripes !!

[@PoshcatsCamping]

It was quite narrow and the sides of the roads are not in good condition. There are a few passing places and the visibility is good, no high hedges or blind bends, so it wasn’t as scary as it looked. It’s a shame the roads are so full of potholes but it’s the local councils that are to blame not the campsite. I hope the campsite are pushing the council to improve the road surface locally. 🙂 Trev

[@gallivantinggalantes]

Hi Trev and Sue, loved the music and your journey to Wagtail Campsite. This looks a really nice site very spacious between pitches and the facilities look good. Good that there is somewhere to buy food and drink on certain days. Enjoy your stay. x

[@PoshcatsCamping]

We drove past your home village this week. We were waving like mad 🤣 did you see us ? Safe travels Julie and Tony 😃🚐 Trev n Sue

[@ManyFunAdventures]

That's a nice place. Looks really well looked after. Like the lake bit. We lived in a couple of Park Homes previously. Great homes.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

We were amazed by Sheila and Joes new park home. It’s such a nice feeling to reduce the maintenance responsibilities and have a nice cosy space to live in. 😃 Trev

[@harrythehymersholidays]

So pleased you loved Wagtails. This was the first site we took Harry the Hymer to when we got him, as it’s only about 25 minutes away from us. Did you find the other part of the site around the second lake? The dog walk carries on all around that section as well. One of the nicest on-site dog walks we’ve found. Best wishes, Suzie & Alan 😊

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Hi Suzie and Alan, yes I did the entire walk with the pups early one morning and it was fabulous. The second lake has park homes all round it now so I didn’t film there to protect their privacy and just filmed the touring park area. We could have spent a lot longer there as it felt very comfortable and we had a nice dry week 😃🚐 Trev

[@harrythehymersholidays]

@@PoshcatsCamping that makes sense. When we were there, there were touring pitches around one side of the lake and they were building some new park homes around the other side. 😊

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you for watching 😃

[@gillheath2545]

Do you mind me asking what size your dog crate is, I like the soft ones for travelling. Enjoy your travels 😊

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Hi Gill, we are still out on the road but I will measure it for you when we get home 🙂 Trev

[@PoshcatsCamping]

As promised, here are the appropriate dimensions length 700mm, height 500mm, width 520mm. It’s suitable for two small dogs or one medium dog 🐕
