What customers say

This is a peaceful, friendly site with beautiful lakes, ideal for fishing and nature walks. Many visitors praise the lovely, helpful owners and staff, the excellent on-site cafe, and the convenient location near Witham and the A12. While generally well-maintained, some guests noted that the toilet and shower facilities could benefit from an update, and background traffic noise from the A12 is occasionally mentioned. Overall, it's considered a good value, relaxing destination.

Liked Lovely site with a warm welcome. On site cafe did a superb breakfast at a very reasonable price. A little traffic noise from the A12 but this did not detract from the peaceful surroundings. Bus stop close by to Colchester. Good day out to a historic city. Also had a day out at the zoo. Will definitely will visit again. Thank you.
