Bayleys Rest camping pod
Liked: Beautiful site, they accommodated us wanting to be close to a relative staying in one of the pods. Really friendly staff. We have previously paid almost double for other sites which have been nowhere near as nice! We had a lovely corner plot looking out to bushes which was lovely. I could see a park for kids and the lake- just wow! There is also a games room!
Disliked: The only thing I can pick on is having to wait for someone to drive down to check you in, but honestly it was 2 minutes so I’m just nitpicking!

Nice site but exspensive when you have to pay extra for a dog.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Great location and facilities. Nice clean showers and toilets. Some lovely walks right from the site.
Disliked: Do not like the fact that it is £5 per dog. I do not agree with having to pay extra for a dog.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi thank you for your review. The cost for the dog of £5 is per stay, and goes to help with the cost of the dog bin removal, maintenance of all the dog facilities. (off lead area, dog games/toys, dog shower), im afraid as a small site, as have to charge or we would have no option but to not allow dogs, which is a shame, as we have 2 dogs and think its wonderful to take your furry friends away with you.

Electric optional grass tent pitch
Liked: Site is flat, well maintained and bays are marked so it’s not a free for all with tight spacing. Dog off ledad pen with toys was fab. Toilet/showers clean and plentiful
Disliked: Shower did run out of hot water mid use. People don’t all follow the rules (some noise late and off lead poorly trained dogs) not a owner fault so much. Hinckley building works audible from about 7 am on weekdays

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Clean well run site. Handy little shop with basics. Pleny of things in the games room for the kids. Fridge freezer and washing up area with plenty of hot water. Two set of shower blocks, cubicles are toilet and shower combined, very spacious the newest white one is very good is brilliant with powerful shower , without the annoying push-button ( the old one does). All are very clean. However surprisingly no hand drier or paper towels, but a single hand towel, not very hygienic! Water and wastes good clean set-up Fishing lake looks nice and peaceful
Disliked: A bit of a marmite one, camp fires. I appreciate that many people like them, But I don’t, especially being surrounded by them. The site is very remote, everything is a trek away beaches , pub or shop etc.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review. We are in the country and surrounded by nature. If you looked at google maps before booking you would of seen this. In general things are a 30min drive away. We only have single phase electric, which does not give us enough power for hand driers. also the noise would be disturbing for everyone around the lakes. Paper towels, i'm afraid don't work, as people put them down the toilets and as we are not no mains sewage, but a treatment plant, this would block the pumps and break the tanks. The towels are an alternative and changed 3/4 times a day.
Loved it.
