Hardstanding electric pitch suitable for caravans, motorhomes, rvs, trailer tents and folding camper

Exterior of safari tent with private decking with access ramp

Quiet site between River Lee Country Park and RSPB Rye Meads
A 20-minute walk from Hoddesdon; 30 minutes to Rye House train station
Bicycle hire, countryside views and shop on site

Folks who like wildlife, cycling and country views will surely like the idea of settling down between RSPB Rye Meads and River Lee Country Park in Hertfordshire. That's where Park Lee Valley Caravan Park Dobbs Weir conveniently sits, surrounded by green countryside and bordered by a river on one side where guests can go fishing during the fishing season. After hiring a bicycle from the site, it's only a 10-minute cycle to the River Lee Country Park's boat centre, next to a pub and café. The country park has a lovely network of cycling and walking trails, as well as a wildlife discovery centre (20 minutes' cycle), a white water centre and a disc golf course (both half an hour's cycle). Lee Valley Caravan Park Dobbs Weir is also a doddle to get to, especially for London dwellers. It's half an hour's walk away from Rye House train station, where there's a direct 35-minute train to London Liverpool Street station. The centre of Hoddesdon is also only a 20-minute walk away from the site, making getting out to supermarkets, restaurants and shops as easy as can be. There are plenty of handy amenities on site too, from the heated toilet and shower blocks (with wheelchair accessible toilets) to laundry facilities with drying and ironing and a chemical disposal point. Pitches are nicely spaced out, and dogs are welcome on site.

2 bedroom safari tent (no pets)

Liked Facilities were very well looked after. Loved the site, we didn’t want to leave.

Disliked The amount of Geese poo and ants, but we know that can’t be helped. Would have been good if the playground was there to give the kids something else to do

Wee Brave wigwam (no pets)

Liked Stayed for one night in a Wee Brave. Helpful staff and reasonably comfortable. Very clean facilities. Fridge and radiator looked a little rusty but the shed was well-equipped and all working. The sofas can be rearranged to make a sleeping platform that spans the width. This was spacious for one. Some tea, coffee and milk was provided which was very welcome but I ate at the local pub. Ideal accommodation for the Lee Valley.

A lot of space, canals, lakes and green areas, great for family fun

Big Chief wigwam (no pets)

Liked A lot of space, canals, lakes and green areas. The office and camping area is very well organized.

The number of showers and toilets is also good and clean.

The cabins were clean, organized, and not too hot inside.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review, all your comments have been shared with the site team. We hope you choose to stay with us again soon.

Not a camp site I will be returning to.

Local attractions

Lee Valley Caravan Park Dobbs Weir's location in the Hertfordshire countryside puts guests within striking distance of walking and cycling trails, watersports and other activities in the Lee Valley Country Park. However, that's not the only reason that you should visit these parts… Hertfordshire Zoo (15 minutes' drive) is on the other side of Hoddesdon for animal encounters, and Epping Forest (25 minutes) is to the southeast, with a small zoo and more hiking and cycling trails. The very keen walkers among you may want to set your sights on a more challenging path. The Essex Way, a rural 81-mile path that can be followed as far as you like, begins in Epping Forest. Harry Potter fans could take themselves off to Warner Bros. Studio Tour London (40 minutes) for a day among the franchise's famed costumes and sets. Meanwhile, those who are more interested in history can go over to Copped Hall Trust (25 minutes) to fawn over the Georgian mansion and gardens.
