Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Beautiful setting beside a canal and pub . Food in the pub is lovely and you get huge portions.
The site is clean and well organised with coded barrier for added security. Check in is in the pub bar where your pitch is allocated . Friendly staff .
I would stay again !

Disliked No wifi or TV signal ( no fault of the site) even in the pub !
Unfortunately we had very rainy weather so didn't explore much .

Liked Nice big pitches , liked the barrier felt more protected against people wandering in.
Enjoyed our meal in the pub.

Disliked Felt the facilities could do with a makeover, there was only 1 shower for women + one for disabled people.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked very clean and well-maintained camp site that appears to be exceptionally well run. The campsite is next to a pub that owns the site and sits alongside a beautiful canal, creating a lovely setting for a relaxing stay.

The food at the pub was excellent, and the service was of a very high standard throughout our visit. We actually found this campsite by accident, but will become one of our favourite places to stay.

We will definitely be returning and would highly recommend it to others looking for a peaceful, well-managed campsite with great food and hospitality.

Disliked Shower block small even though very clean and maintained, somewhere to put your cloths would be a great addition

Recommend to friends Visit again

Perfect for what we want.

What customers say

This peaceful countryside campsite is praised for its spacious, level pitches, clean facilities, and friendly hosts. Located next to a canal, it offers lovely walks and is adjacent to The Wharf Tavern, which serves excellent food. Some visitors noted that the shower facilities, located behind the pub across the road, could benefit from modernisation and more capacity, especially for ladies, although they were reported as clean and functional. Despite minor criticisms regarding dated facilities and occasional electricity issues, the overall experience is highly positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.
