Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Only stayed one night but it was pleasant enough. Pitch was on a slope but was ok for one night. Washrooms were modern and warm with great showers. The staff we encountered were very helpful and pleasant.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: We love this campsite. The facilities are always clean and warm, great hot shower and wash up area with hot water. The staff are lovely and polite and we are made to feel welcome. The cafe breakfast batch is cracking, starts the day off right! You can hear the noise from the road but we didnt find it intrusive. We will certainly be back. Thanks for another lovely weekend! 😃

Disliked: Nothing to dislike!

Liked: Peaceful site. Lovely surroundings. Clean. Showers were outstanding. Despite being so close to the motorway. It was simply a quiet ‘white noise’ in the background. Very pleasant and peaceful site.

Melissa W. Sept 2024

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: What a lovely campsite! We booked here as it is local to us and wanted to take my daughter and her friend camping for her birthday. They loved it! Clean facilities and lovely cafe, they do a cracking breakfast batch! Great security too and all the staff we met were lovely. We will definitely be back. One thing to mention, the ground is quite rocky so we used the storm pegs, but all good!

Disliked: Nothing to dislike really. I gave location a 4 as you can hear the motorway quite loudly although if you're on the electric bit of the field it's much better. Not really a bother for us though.

Local attractions

If you’re in the mood for a quiet picnic or woodland stroll, Coombe Abbey Country Park (15 minutes’ drive) is a 500-acre parkland made for whiling away a day outdoors. There’s also a play area, zip lining and climbing forest if the family’s up for an active day. Or you could always try out the angling here too if your break really is all about fishing. Entertaining the kids shouldn’t be too tricky around these parts either. Immerse yourself fully in the medieval world of dungeons, knights and princesses, jousting and falconry with a visit to Warwick Castle (35 minutes). Or scream if you wanna go faster at Drayton Manor Theme Park, home to rollercoasters, Thomas Land and a 15-acre zoo. Animal antics of all kinds are also order of the day at Twycross Zoo (30 minutes).
