What customers say
This peaceful marina-side site offers spacious pitches with excellent facilities, including individual water and electric hook-ups. Guests appreciate the convenient canal towpath access for walks to a nearby pub and the friendly, helpful staff. While generally well-maintained, some reviewers note dated toilet and shower facilities. The approach road is consistently described as having significant potholes, though some newer comments suggest recent improvements. WiFi can be inconsistent, and some report noise from nearby transport links.

Overall nice site
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked Nice well sized pitch with own water and wifi

Enjoyed our stay.
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked Very much enjoyed this stay. It was quiet, although full and everyone respected all other site users.
Pitches are a good size, fully serviced and private.
Disliked Nothing really to dislike tbh.
If I HAD to grumble, it would be regarding the road in and the driveway entrance which is very bumpy with sleeping policeman and potholes but once on site, everything was ok.

Perfectly OK.
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked The pitches have electric and water. Showers and toilets were clean and functioned well. It served a good purpose for us as a stopover on the way to a campsite much further away.
Disliked Given you are near a beautiful marina, there is no view of this. Although dogs are welcome on site, the layout of the pitches means it's hard to find somewhere level and grassy to put a tie-in stake in the ground you can clip your dog to.
