Liked The setting was beautiful. Showers and toilets were nice and modern.

Disliked The shower and toilet block needs checking more frequently throughout the day in my opinion, because at times they weren’t the best due to thoughtless people leaving them in a state. There really shouldn’t be any excuse for this as the facilities are provided for everyone to clean up after themselves but I think a physical check up is required.

Liked Beautiful lakes, lovely to walk around and very well kept. Nice cafe on site but not open much.

Disliked People were allowed to have 2 or more outfits on a pitch and there was barely 2 meters between me and my various neighbours. The showers were clean, but they smelt really bad. Lots of weeds everywhere and cigarette butt's on the pitch.

Liked Fishing on lake was good specimen lake too far to walk and very noisy

Disliked Toilet blocks not cleaned for 4 days no toilet roll not acceptable smell in shower room no shower mat very noisy right next to motorway even ear plugs did not filter out the noise at night hard standing pitch was full of thistle we had to clear them before we put up awning water in washing up area was cold not even tepid had to boil water to take and cold water in basins in toilet

From the manager: Hi thanks for your review.
I'd just like to address a couple of points.
Firstly, the shower block is cleaned every single day - once by the cleaners and then they are checked every 2 hours by staff on site and cleaned if needed. They also check the toilet rolls.
We have recently upgraded all the showers (only last weekend) and there was no smell.
We are next to the M69, something you would have been aware of when booking and not something that we can help. The noise is barely there from the campsite though.
I personally mowed the grass and it was strimmed also so I know that the hardstanding wasn't full of thistle.

What customers say

This campsite offers spacious pitches and is praised for its clean, modern, and well-maintained toilet and shower facilities, with many highlighting the warm, powerful showers. Anglers appreciate the numerous well-stocked fishing lakes, and the site is generally described as peaceful and scenic. Staff are frequently mentioned as friendly and helpful. While some noted occasional issues with toilet cleanliness and a lack of toilet roll during busy periods, management has responded to concerns regarding shower upgrades and cleaning schedules. Motorway noise is present but often described as a dull background hum.

Liked Nice large field, toilets were clean and well stocked with toilet paper, reception staff were kind upon check in, field was tidy, bins/washing up/water was convenient

Disliked We weren't given a map so had to figure out facilities ourselves, water points weren't signposted (they are the lit up poles by electric pitches, btw)

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).
