The soft hum of alpacas greeting the morning drifts across this wonderfully unusual campsite on the edge of Barrow-upon-Humber, where the flat Lincolnshire marshlands stretch toward the Humber estuary. There's something utterly charming about waking to the sight of these gentle, inquisitive creatures grazing nearby, their presence adding a touch of whimsy to your camping experience.

Perfect for families seeking something different from the standard campsite and anyone drawn to animal encounters, this small site sits in the heart of North Lincolnshire's agricultural landscape. You're well-placed for exploring the market town of Barrow-upon-Humber and the wider Ancholme valley, with the estuary's big skies and birdlife within easy reach.

Pitches accommodate tents, campervans, and caravans, though facilities details should be confirmed when booking. The real draw here is the alpacas themselves—these curious characters often wander close to the camping area, making this a memorable stay for children and adults alike. Check about campfire policies on arrival. Expect a relaxed, rural atmosphere where the pace slows right down and the main entertainment comes with long necks and impossibly soft fleeces.
