Bolam Lake Camping Paddock

A aimé : Beautiful views across the field, the campsite was nice and quiet as we went just after the bank holiday. The toilets were checked morning and night and stayed clean and well stocked throughout our stay. The dish washing facility is basic but works, a kettle is supplied for hot water, they also supply eco friendly washing up detergent, bowl and scrubbing brushes. Bolam lake is just across the road for a lovely walk which was enjoyed by everyone, even the teenager! The owners are lovely and gave a very friendly welcome and checked in to see how things were going and if there was anything they could do to help.

N'a pas aimé: Nothing to dislike, enjoyable stay. Unfortunately due to the amount of rain I needed assistance to get out of the field but this is no fault of the owners.

It was great to meet you - just wish the weather had been a little better during your stay. Thanks for staying with us and we hope to see you again in the future.

A aimé : This was a lovely immaculate run site with a really family feel ran by people who really cared and nothing was too much trouble. We were welcomed both on and and off the site. The weekend brought very wet weather and campers who found themselves struggling to get off the site were quickly assisted. The portaloos and dishwashing area were regularly cleaned and all campers were regularly checked upon.

A aimé : This was my first experience as a solo camper. Jill and David are a lovely couple that have an amazing site. It’s clean and well managed and they do their best to make you feel welcome and make sure you have everything you need. I’ve never known site owners to come around and chat to visitors like they do. I felt so safe and comfortable. The toilets are extremely clean and well kept too. It’s right across the road from Bolam Country park which was ideal because I had my dog with me. I will definitely be back!

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks so much for sharing your feedback - it was great to meet you and your lovely dog. We really enjoy meeting the lovely people who stay with us and our aim is to offer everyone a warm welcome, clean facilities, spacious pitches and the opportunity to just relax and enjoy the countryside. It's lovely to share a lovely bit of Northumberland that has been home to us for nearly thirty years:) We hope that you visit again soon.

A aimé : Site is lovely. Just a grass field, but facilities are excellent and the nature nearby is great. Even the toilets are clean. Hosts are lovely people, they offer lots of help and guidance.

N'a pas aimé: I was hoping for a quiet, relaxing stay with my wife and 3 year old. It was advertised as a quiet, no party site with quiet hours. It might have been, before the large group of teens (I guess some of them must have been over 18) arrived and decided to have loud, base heavy music until late, then even after we got them to turn it off, the loud and drunken behavior went on until early hours. Their fire was on until late, they were disruptive for everyone around them and they didn't care who was annoyed. Having experienced similar problems in the past at other sites we picked an off-grid site with no bar and quiet hours. I suppose this type of thing is just a staple for campsites these days. Some may be able to put up with it. It will be fine if you stay up past midnight anyway or are a heavy sleeper. I feel bad to leave a negative review, because it's not the hosts' fault, but had I read a review like this before booking I may have chosen a different site.

Réponse du gestionnaire : We are very sorry that your stay was disturbed by these inconsiderate campers. We send out comprehensive information to all of our guests who book with us that clearly states that all campers must respect quiet time from 10pm – 7.00am and unfortunately on this occasion this small group have not respected this rule. We are on call 24/7 and if we are made aware of such behaviour we would speak to the campers directly and if they were not prepared to respect quiet time they would be asked to leave the campsite immediately. Thank you for your feedback as it is important to us - we are just sorry that we could not have resolved this issue during your stay with us.
