What customers say

This well-maintained site is praised for its spacious pitches, lovely lake views, and excellent, clean toilet and shower facilities. It is particularly popular with anglers, offering numerous fishing lakes. Guests enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, friendly staff, and convenient on-site shop and cafe. While some mention road noise from the nearby M69 and occasional issues with facility cleanliness or maintenance, many found it to be good value and a relaxing place to stay, with plans to return.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Hardstanding level pitch. Electric and water on pitch. Great fishing and cafe. Also has a small shop. Showers ok.

Would definitely return for another fishing weekend. Great relaxed vibe, would definitely take kids to learn to fish.

Disliked A little road noise but didn’t bother us. One of the lakes is quite noisy with road traffic but we avoided this lake, the others were fine.

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).
