Wilksworth Caravan Park

Site is absolutely lovely, myself and husband arrived after reception closed, which was not an issue, our pitch details were left for us. One of the lovely wardens was around to help.
Woke up the next morning and what a delightful park. It is exceptionally clean and lots for children of all ages, bmx park, volleyball net, outdoor pool ( when weather is hotter), large play area and a cute tiny town.
The shower facilities are exceptional, under floor heating, the showers are so warm and clean. We only stayed for a couple of nights but are definitely coming back for a week next year

Excellent location and very good facilities. So much to do and see all around it is the perfect base for a family holiday. Surprised at how good the shared facilities were. Shower/toilet block was always very clean, and warm for those late night loo dashes! Plenty of space bearing mind site was pretty full for the first part of our stay it never felt that way. Swimming pool was a great bonus. A shame it wasn't open earlier as would be great to have been able to have a swim before going out for the day rather than feeling we had to rush back to get back before it closed. Last week of summer hols but still busy so not opening until midday seems odd (presume restricted by staffing numbers). Good to see 2 lifeguards on duty at all times though. Excellent kids playground, big field with football pitch, little mini-town for smaller kids, plus volleyball and kids playground. All v good condition.
Pitches very well kept. Managed efficiently with effective clean up of each pitch as soon as someone vacated.
Lovely cafe on site.
All in all a very good location and good choice.

Without wanting to sound like a killjoy, I believe if rules are there they should be abided by as much as possible. The park advised at check in that quiet time is from 10pm. Of course you still expect there to be chatter and laughter (and the occasional family disagreement!), but people continued to drive in until 1am with loud car stereos, and then go into their tents and watch movies! Call me old fashioned but I see camping as a chance to get away from TV and noise, but if you must watch movies at least use headphones. It was like being at a drive-in movie one night without the benefit of watching the movie, just hearing it!
Nobody seemed to patrol in the evenings (despite a sign up saying there would be extra checks as the entry barrier was broken).
This was the only real disappointment that stopped me giving 5*. You could say the park cannot control the selfishness of some people, but it wouldn't take much for them to patrol and ask for the noise to be kept down.

Facilities good and clean tent pitch was a good size.Very friendly staff and great little cafe for breakfast.

The annoying neighbours lol

Restaurant

WiFi not working properly. Kids pool closed because of fault. Not much good for 3 year olds. Security barrier not working. key pad on toilet block not in use.Dog walk pathetic. Bins overflowing adding to wasp problem. Had to ask for my pitch to be cleared of rubbish before pitching. Have used this site before under previous ownership with no problems. Company who own it do not take phone calls to discuss issues. Put in writing and got very poor response. No response to follow up communication. Overpriced. Would I go again. NO

Good service with reception and restaurant. Food was good value.

Pitch was next to bins and very far from toilets. Pool was too cold for our 4y/o

Kids play area, pool, friendly staff, coffee shop.

The toilets are very old, and there were only one block for the whole site, so by the end of the day some of the toilets unpleasant. Could do with some major investment to add more facilities. Pitches are also very close together.

The play area for the children was amazing, because it is separate to the roads the children are safe and can roam freely.
The toilets and showers were clean and warm, they were regularly checked.
Staff were very helpful and informative about places to go. The food at the cafe was also yummy!

It would be nice to be able to use firepits in the evening as this adds to the atmosphere.
The swimming pool was very crowded and murky, not sure the lifeguards actually knew how many people were actually in the pool.
