After being sold to property developers, who proposed to use it to house asylum seekers,[2] it was acquired by PGL[3] who now operate it as a centre for adventure based holidays for adults and children.

[2] Later, while part of the De Montford University, another complex consisting of Boston, Brownlow, Bourne and Louth Halls was built on the former rugby and football pitches.

In addition to the three main buildings and the student halls of residence there were other properties including: In October 2001 the Lincolnshire School of Agriculture was transferred to the University of Lincoln, and in September 2002 the Caythorpe Campus was closed, with its courses being relocated to Riseholme College.

[11] In December 2002 the Caythorpe Action Group was formed to fight any proposal to use the site as an asylum centre and represent local concerns.

The plans included a man-made lake, orienteering course and archery facilities with an all-weather pitch, theatre and bar, hedge maze, field study centre and rifle range.

[18] The centre was opened in the spring of 2006[19] after updating the accommodation blocks and provision of activities such as zip-wire, archery, trapeze, high ropes and kayaking.

[22] At an "Investor Day" in September 2009, PGL's parent company, Holidaybreak plc, announced that the total expenditure on Caythorpe Court was £13.8 million.

[23] Enactus UK (formerly known as SIFE Students_in_Free_Enterprise) had a long association with PGL Caythorpe Court and has regularly held training weekends at the site.

[24] The PGL site was used as a Strategic Evacuation Centre by Lincolnshire County Council in response to the East Coast Tidal Surge on 5 December 2013.

[25] PGL staff working at the site over the winter period quickly prepared accommodation and food provision for incoming residents of Boston, Lincolnshire who were at risk due to flooding in the town.

PGL Caythorpe Court has annually supported the Battle of Arnhem Memorial weekend[26] which is held in the local village of Caythorpe, Lincolnshire providing accommodation to visiting veterans of the 216 Airborne Signals Regiment & their families, and providing staff to assist in the running of the annual Gala event[27] In 2018, Caythorpe Court began undergoing major updates, including a new 200 bed guest accommodation block (named after the local village of Cranwell) and a new staff accommodation unit named after Isaac Newton, who has strong associations with the local town of Grantham.
