What customers say
This is a clean and spacious campsite with well-spaced pitches, some offering electric hook-up and water. Facilities are generally reported as clean, with recent shower upgrades. On-site food options, including a food truck, are popular. While many appreciate the location and quiet atmosphere, a significant number of reviews highlight concerns over the site being overpriced for the facilities provided, with issues such as lack of on-site staff, closed amenities (brewery/cafe), and inconvenient access to local lakes. Some guests also noted problems with toilet facilities and waste management.

Anonymous Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked We returned from last year & we loved how much the camp site has improved. You have worked hard throughout the winter to sort the grassing issues you had in 2025. Really cool camp site. Thanks.
Disliked My only negative was my boy was playing & there were a few areas that had spikey weeds & he stepped in them whilst playing in the middle of the field (opposite the electric hook area)

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked The campsite is very overpriced for facilities, its a lovely clean campsite with great food hut and facilities are adequate , pitches clean and well portioned, just very expensive for what is provided.
Also it seems very silly to not be able to access cotswold beach lake through the field. We stayed here specifically to be close walking distance to lake and beach, it is very close but blocked off with big hedge, so have to walk in the opposite direction to get to lake- 20 min walk

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Access to showers and toilets. Location to the water park and a local pub.
Disliked Couldn’t find an Elsa’s point and all toilets were struggling with some blocked and unusable. Lack of storage for waste is a big problem I hope you can fix it for next year.As I can see it is a new camp. Also showers were always cold on my visits daily lucky it was so hot.

Perfectly maintained campsite. Close to lakes. Drive places don’t walk
Anonymous Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Pitches perfectly sizes for our vw camper. The entire site was huge, with loads of facilities. The other campers were exceptionally friendly.
The van onsite did really tasty food.
Disliked Local pub (Hunter’s Arms) is excellent but very expensive. Not a single shop (that I could find) in the village. Trying to walk to the local lakes was hard (along main roads), and once you get there you need a wristband to be allowed to purchase a tea/coffee.
