Engagement party
My husband & I will be moving to the area in July 2006 to retire from Scunthorpe after 34 years and remember our engagement party at the Grange & Links in 1971 it was a lovely evening enjoyed by all our friends we came from Louth on a coach, we were looked after very well by all the staff, we hope to visit the Hotel again.
What super times we had in this area.

Camelot Court history
My grandma and grandad moved to Sutton on Sea. They bought a brand new bungalow at Camelot Court, I have photos of the bungalow being built. I have since been left the bungalow and my parents have now also moved to Sutton to a new bungalow.
I am interested in the history of Camelot Court. I understand that Camelot Court and Garend were built on the site of a large house and I remember Stable Cottage at Camelot Court being built and the old stables knocked down. I also remember a large old building where Doulton Court now stands, I went in there once as a child though I was always told not to! There were rows of beds ...read more here

Bohemia Caravan Site
This was the year my Grandma & Grandad bought a Bluebird Caravan, which they sited on the Bohemia Caravan Site. Just over from the sea top this caravan was the beginning of many happy holidays to be spent at Sutton-on-Sea. Bohemia was lovely, always tidy, flower beds planted - even if there were gas mantles to be lit, water to be fetched and the toilet/shower block over the way. The entire atmosphere of this site was lovely, and Sutton-on-Sea always a delightful place to visit - there will always be fond memories of Bohemia.

Extracts From Sandilands & Lincolnshire books
This view is taken from the steps up to the sea wall behind the dunes, and looks across the small resort of Sandilands, just south of Sutton on Sea. In the foreground is Boathouse Cottage, now rendered, plastic-windowed and hidden behind a high rendered wall. Beyond the greenhouse is Briarwood, one of a number of rather good sub-Arts and Crafts houses dotted around Sandilands.

A tremendous visual change here is that there are now no breakwater defences along the beach. The bathing huts are still there, and so is the glorious sand. Sandilands can be found just to the south of Sutton on Sea.

The biggest change is that the shop is now twice as big: it includes the post office, and takes up the whole of the downstairs of the semi-detached house. The house next door with the white bay windows has been covered with what looks like white plastic cladding. During the 1953 storm the flood water was up to window sill level.
