What customers say
This picturesque marina site is praised for its peaceful atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff, and excellent canal-side location, offering pleasant walks. Pitches are generally spacious and well-maintained, with some featuring full service hook-ups. While facilities are mostly clean, some guests found them a little dated and noted a limited number, occasionally leading to waits. The nearby Plough pub is a popular destination. The site's proximity to attractions like Lichfield and the National Memorial Arboretum is also highlighted.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Overall the site was lovely access isn’t too bad.
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked Size of pitch, friendly staff, showers and toilet facilities were exceptionally clean. Quiet area, Good for a relax, hardly any road noise.
Disliked No barrier on the entrance for security, the office was locked until around 11am so couldn’t check out. If you want an early check out you will need to call in advance.
Fully serviced pitch but the Grey waste goes into the hedge. Would be good to be reminded that the £20 deposit for the key needs to be in cash otherwise it takes 3-5 days for a refund.
