Anonymous Non-electric grass campervan or tent pitch
Liked Close proximity to the water.
Disliked Arrived and the access gate was locked.
Called the contact number, no response.
Managed to gain access but no reception or persons responsible on site. Therefore no idea what to do or where to go.
Site generally untidy, uncut high hedges obscuring views of the lake. Booked for two night left the next morning.
The worst campervan site experience we’ve had.
Certainly no worth the money.

Quiet and peaceful site with a glorious view
Non-electric grass campervan or tent pitch
Liked Loved the site, absolutely beautiful view from a well laid out and clean site. Very quiet when I stayed. NOT a complaint at all, but I could have done with some signposts to the loos, it took me a while to find them!
Disliked Nothing at all, I will definitely be going back

What customers say
This well-maintained campsite offers spacious, private pitches with stunning views of Rutland Water. Guests consistently praise the tranquility, cleanliness of facilities, and proximity to walking and cycling routes. While generally adult-focused and peaceful, some reviews mention occasional noise disturbances. Basic facilities are noted, with suggestions for improved privacy in shower cubicles and covered washing-up areas. The site's location and beautiful scenery are major drawcards, with many planning repeat visits.

A wonderfully peaceful weekend!
Non-electric grass campervan or tent pitch
Liked We had the most wonderful stay at The Hide at Manton Bay, the camping pitches were spacious and private with amazing views over Rutland Water. The toilets, showers and washing up facilities were back to basics but complimented the site, had plentiful hot water and kept spotlessly clean. We were lucky enough to visit on a weekend when.there was a pop up food van on site, the burgers were amazing!!! The Lyndon nature reserve is a must visit, lucky to see Osprey, bring your binoculars!
Disliked Nothing to dislike here.

A great site with wonderful views…
Anonymous Non-electric grass campervan or tent pitch
Liked A great site with wonderful views over the lake and easy access to the cycle path. A short drive away from Oakham which has plenty of restaurants and shops. Loved the private and quiet nature of the site. We would definitely come here again for a weekend.
