Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Lovely shower facilities, spotlessly clean. Thoroughly enjoyed having the place to myself on my midweek stay. There was always a breeze, even on the hottest days.
Disliked The only minor thing is that the grey water disposal is not accessible for motorhomes - it works fine for caravans using the barrel system. But really a minor issue and it won't stop me returning.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Great views and it was lovely to hear the horses. The facilities are rustic in style but clean and tidy with hot water.
Disliked Broken glass and sharp tile like pieces on the track around the gates. The road is just the other side of the hedge you camp against.

From the manager: Hi,
Thank you for your review. The views and animals are what makes our lovley site, were glad you enjoyed.
The track is recycled planings and contained many recycled fine parts that are safe. Unfortunately we can't move the road however were lucky it's a quite country lane.

Highly recommend
Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Second visit here and once again not disappointed. Clean and well stocked toilet and shower block, the showers are brilliant especially after a day cooking in a heatwave. The non electric grass pitch was spacious and level with lovely views.
Disliked A little traffic noise from the road alongside but nothing to dislike about tge actual site.

Friendly, well-maintained campsite.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We had an enjoyable weekend at this campsite! The location was good - close to Donington Park Circuit and easily accessible from the M1. The facilities were nice, with clean and well-maintained showers and toilets, two of each. The grounds were well kept and the hosts were kind and helpful, ready to offer suggestions or assist. Pitch sizes were good - we had 5 medium size tents across 2 pitches, and it was a bonus to be able to park two cars opposite / next to it. The supplied fire-pit and logs were well priced. The site is on a working farm and horse riding school, but noise levels were not an issue. There’s a nice pub and a village shop in Belton, a short walk from the campsite. Overall, it was a great experience.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Beautiful countryside, easy to find, lots to do in the area including easy walking and cycling routes with direct access from the camp. Facilities clean and tidy, lovely shower.
Disliked Couldn't get on allocated pitch as large motorhome had spread out over the pitch so selected a vacant one and that was fine. Paid for firewood in advance but couldn't find out how to get it?

From the manager: Hi Allie,
Were glad you enjoyed your visit. Sorry to hear about the motorhome, unfortunately we were away when you visited and our site was busy (website failure). We would have sorted this for sure. Regarding the wood, sorry about that we have the wood ready for you when you arrive, it must have been missed. When you visit again drop us an email and we will get you a fire pit and wood for you stay FOC :)
