What customers say
This site offers beautiful views and has excellent, brand-new shower and toilet facilities. Pitches are spacious, and staff are communicative. The site was undergoing renovations, which did not significantly impact stays, and ongoing improvements are evident. Some guests experienced delays in receiving refunds due to site closure for refurbishment, though the manager confirmed refunds have been issued. The site is advertised as quiet, with no bar or restaurant, and future vehicle access restrictions are planned.

Liked Facilities brand new and kept clean and tidy. The site was still undergoing the last of its renovations but didn’t impact the stay and can tell when it’s 100% done it’ll be a really good site. Pitches nice and spacious, site manager explained everything really well. Close to drive to pubs and the main shore areas of Rutland water and can access the nature trail to walk/cycle by the lake from the campsite

Liked NB this review is for a complementary (free) stay in the field, not the actual main site, so cannot comment on facilities etc.
Emailed prior to arrival to let me know they were not able to open as planned due to ongoing construction, apologising and promising refund + offered free stay on their certified location field instead. I took them up on the offer as I was already in the area.
Fresh water tap & black waste disposal point at field entrance gate. Friendly owner.
Location is 5-10 mins walk/cycle downhill to the Rutland Nature Centre. (unfortunately, Rutland Water is not accessible to view/walk around etc without paying entrance just FYI but partial reservoir views from some of Lyndon Top's fields)
This field was adjacent to the road so some noise from vehicles. Hopefully their other pitches are further down the lane towards Rutland Water so quieter!
Refund took a couple of weeks but has now arrived, many thanks.

Disliked The site was closed for refurbishment on the weekend I was due to stay so I couldn’t stay.
I was promised a refund but have not yet received this over one month since the planned stay. I have tried to email the site but had no reply.
I was called about the issue but have not had a follow up and am still waiting.

From the manager: Good evening, I’m sorry you have not had your refund yet, everyone on our list has received theirs so I don’t know how you have been missed. We also don’t have any emails from anyone saying they still haven’t had it.
As your email is anonymous, would you please call the office tomorrow with your name and booking details and we will get this sorted straight away.
Once again, we are sorry this has been missed but hope to welcome you on site now we are open.
