What customers say
Friendly and well-maintained campsite with great views and a woodland setting. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are generally clean and well-appointed, though some noted distance from pitches or occasional issues with maintenance. Takeaways deliver to site. While some pitches are sloped, many found ample space. Families particularly enjoyed the playground. The site is a good base for exploring the local area.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Quiet site and very clean. Easy to park. We had a fully serviced hard standing pitch with ample room for awning and extras.
Disliked Needed a car to get everywhere. Locally no pubs open on a Monday lol.

Lovely place to stay
Luxury Woodland lodge (hot tub)
Liked Myself and my husband soent 2 nights here for our wedding anniversary.
Such a lovely place, kept well and patrolled well to stop any nuisance behaviour. Lodge was lovely and clean, bed made, towels provided as well as milk, tea, coffee,sugar, washing up liquid, sponge and tea towel. Staff were very nice , and responded quickly, even at 3am when we needed help with a smoke alarm ☺️ apologised and sorted problem straight away.
Disliked There was nothing to dislike about the lodge we stayed in or the staff, nice site 👍

Disliked Only downside was someone smoking weed very potent around children is not what you want to be smelling

Worth the money, needs some minor improvements
Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely site, nice views, surrounded by woods. Facilities were okay. Site manager was friendly. Site shop was very basic but local shop is a short drive away. I was at top of Site which is very good spot to be, bottom of Site is nowhere near toilets and showers and its a uphill walk. I liked the 11pm silence rule.
Disliked Toilets and showers just need a bit more attention. The facilities are everything when choosing a camp site. They were clean enough but they did need a second clean a day. It would make all the difference to your reviews.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Clean facilities friendly staff
Disliked Very overcrowded site far too many tents and not enough space we asked to move pitch when we arrived as there was no way our tent would have fitted in the space provided it was like being at a festival. The site quietened down after the weekend which was better but would not return

Good site with play area and woods for dogs. Clean facilities.
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Just got back from a long weekend here. Lovely camp site. We really enjoyed our selfs. Little park for the kids loads of green area for kids to ride bikes/ play football.
Allowed to have our own fire as long as it raised was amazing. Facilities clean and tidy. If you have dogs too there is an entrance to the woods from the bottom field my dog loved it. Overall lovely place with great people.
Disliked Had to come home 😭

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Lovely campsite. Lovely views. Fabulous that takeaways deliver to site! & A good spot for exploring different places. We will definitely be coming back.
Disliked This isn't a dislike - but just a 'this would have made it perfect.'
The play park could just do with a baby swing or a sand pit for the littler ones.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to review your stay we welcome all feedback.
We are pleased that you enjoyed your time with us and we hope to welcome you back in the future.
Great idea about the baby swing we will discuss with our owner, the sand pit is a good idea we had thought about this and a water play area but feel that it would be difficult to manage, we will keep our thinking caps on as we are always thinking of new things, we introduced the big games this year which have been a great success.
Many thanks for the feedback it has given something to think about.
Thank you from all the Riddings Wood team.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Clean facilities at all times, park and woods for the kids. Great atmosphere.
Disliked Hill, sleeping upwards, walk to the toilet, should be more central. This reason wouldn't visit again.
