Electric grass pitch
Liked: Location, good facilities, friendly and helpful staff, even the weather was good!! I was originally booked in for 4 nights, this was an additional night as I wanted to stay a bit long, so 5 nights in total.
Disliked: Pitch I was on was very baron with hardly any grass. Very dusty too so the tent was always dirty on the floor as it got trailed in. Also tent caked in tree sap and bird muck due to location of pitch being under trees. Didn't spoil the break though.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Lovely location close to Castle Howard and nested beside the lake with its many swans and ducks. Very beautiful and peaceful. Warden friendly and helpful. Facilities are good. The shower block is new - could have been designed better with more toilet space and better sink facilities. Nice walks from the site and we came across filming for Blueberry Inn which was exciting
Disliked: Busy at the weekend but quietened down at the weekend.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Clean facilities
Disliked: Avoid during busy times. It’s described as peaceful but it wasn’t. They really cram you in on the touring field - being told ‘we can get 50 units in easy’ might be true but it felt like a festival car park without a festival!!

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to write your review Kath and thank you for commenting on the cleanliness of our facilities. We appreciate your time and your views. It is a shame that your visit wasn't as you were expecting or as peaceful as you would have liked but as a very popular and lovely location we naturally have busy periods, especially some weekends through the warmer months. For the majority of the time, especially mid-week, Lakeside is a great place to chill and enjoy the surrounding countryside. Regarding the size of the camping field; it is unallocated so that guests are able to choose their pitch; many campers like to position themselves around the edge but there is still ample room in the central area of the field even when we are at our capacity.
