Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The tent pitches are huge the toilets and showers are cleaned twice a day very clean and tidy site lots to do at Barleylands You get free WiFi which is a bonus

Disliked: only 1 toilet was opened at night and that was the mens, as you need a code i was putting in the code but the door still wouldnt open so had to go in the mens and the mens toilets smelled much better than the womens

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: The site is large and clean with good facilities. The toilets are basic but cleaned regularly so no faults really. Will be coming back as not far from us.

Disliked: Toilets could do with updating. Grandchildren came for the farm went in at 3 but lot of things closed including tractor ride but nobody told us after taking our money. Other than that it was fine

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Very easy to find and pitch up, bus service to Billericay and Basildon for interconnecting transport easy to use, and just outside of Barleylands. Showers in the shower block easy to use, and lovely and warm,

Disliked: the only downside was perhaps a couple more toilets would be useful, as there were only 2 next to the shower block and queuing was inevitable,

Josie L. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Barleylands was a lovely clean site. The farm park there and craft village are both really nice also. We didnt try the football golf but definitely will try it next time we go.

Disliked: Only thing i'd change is maybe a little play area on the actual campsite as there is only a park in the farm park so if you dont pay for entry to the farm park you cant access it.

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Flat site, campers were very quiet and respectful of each other

Disliked: No one to greet you on arrival, cameras watching u like big brother. Combination doors to get access to toilets, no hot water for washing up, only saw 1 team of cleaners all weekend and that was on the bh mon as we were packing up. washing up facilities were dirty, food in plug even though a sign says put food remnants in bin, no bin liner on frame to use the whole weekend, no dog walking apart from tiny field which took 5 mins. Spoilt the weekend as first time on this site but won't return.

Local attractions

Bounce down to Basildon (10 minutes’ drive), where the town centre has cinemas, a shopping centre and plenty of restaurants and pubs where you can spend evenings away from base. For more urban explores, you’ll be about an hour by car or train from central London, making Barleylands a top option for weekends away from the capital or a mix of rural and city days out. Getting to the seaside is also easily arranged here, as Barleylands is 20 minutes from Thorney Bay beach, a family-friendly spot on Canvey Island with great views over the Thames Estuary. Southend (30 minutes) is also an option for traditional days by the beach, with amusements and a pier to sweeten the deal. For more things to do, take the family off to Adventure Island theme park (30 minutes), Diggerland Kent (40 minutes) or, for quieter times, try stately homes like Hylands House (25 minutes) and Boreham House (25 minutes), both of which have a range of gardens and pretty parklands to explore.
