What customers say
Marnham Lakes is praised for its peaceful, countryside setting, spacious pitches, and friendly staff, particularly Martin. The site offers good fishing and a bus bar is a popular addition. While facilities are described as basic, they are generally found to be clean and well-maintained. Improvements are ongoing, with a new toilet block under construction. Some guests noted potential issues with narrow access roads and occasional unpleasant smells from a nearby plant.
