What customers say
Riddings Wood Holiday Park offers a peaceful woodland setting with generally clean and well-maintained facilities. Visitors frequently praise the friendly and helpful staff, spacious pitches, and good value for money. The park is well-located for exploring the local area and offers woodland walks. While most guests enjoy the site, some mention that pitches can be sloped, and there are occasional comments about the distance to facilities from certain pitches and the need for more frequent cleaning during peak times.

Kids loved the park…
Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Kids loved the park
Disliked Most pitches are on a hill and it’s not the cleanest site. The showers really needed to be cleaned more. The female owner was extremely rude (other campers had also mentioned she had been abrupt with them too) which really lets the site down.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked How quiet the site was and how places to walk the dogs around the area. Lovely people that manage the site though.
Disliked How steep the pitches are and the drop from the grass to the pitch. Made getting the caravan on the pitch difficult. If you don’t have motor movers u will definitely struggle if someone is on the pitch in front with a tent.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked On entry staff very helpful and friendly the site is very clean and well kept we had a nice little pitch (18) it is nice to go on to a site where people respect to the rules of the campsite and kept the noise to a minimum after a certain time at night there are a couple of local pubs a short walk away (moulders arms and seven stars) and we had a nice Chinese from foo lin we will definitely be going back maybe longer next time thanks Nick and Tracy

We are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to welcome you back in the future.
The bins are emptied twice weekly, we did have a missed collection 2 weeks ago when the waste truck broke down. The past 2 weeks we have found that although we have 6 bins in the the bin compound guests only use the first 3 to point they overflow and then they pile bags on the floor if they went a bit further to the 4-6th bin they would find them empty. the top of the park by the toilets there are 2 bins guest use the first bin to point of overflowing and pile bags on the floor when the second bin remains empty. We do try to rotate the bins and pick the bags of the floor and put them in the empty bins. Guests also fill the bins with air beds, camping chairs and the list goes on, this has an impact on how full the bins get when we clearly ask guests to take any unwanted or broken camping stuff home.

Amazing Stay
Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Everything.... we love this site think this is our 5th stay and we'll be back.Amazing stay, lovely warm welcome.... nothing is ever too much trouble...we booked electric hook up as last one available to book online but asked to go on the field (non electric) and no surprise "no problem go make yourself at home". Lovely clean facilities and a pop up pizza oven on site...thank you once again and see you soon :)
Disliked Having to pack up and go home :(

A shame the finer details were not looked at. A cleaner is needed.
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Everyone was friendly and the takeaway vans that attend including the pizza van was tip top.
Disliked Such a shame as this site had the potential to be really good, but let down by the following:
There was only 1 x shower / toilet block for the whole of the site. It was also not cleaned at regular points in the day. I understand that this could be attributed to the clientele not keeping it clean, but a cleaner would have helped (plus additional facilities).
The dirt track in the way out was undulating and the sound of exhausts catching it didn’t sound good.

We are sorry to hear that you found your stay disappointing and will not return in the future.
The toilets may not always look like they have been cleaned, please be reassured they are cleaned by cleaning staff and checked through the day by other staff on site. We have a cleaning LOG in our diary which shows they are checked or cleaned every 2 hours. We are now going to put a cleaning chart in the toilets which will show the times they are cleaned and or checked so that our guests can see how often we attend to the toilets.
Thank you for your feedback and we wish you well in your future travels.
