Alderford Lake

Líbí se The lake was spectacular

Nelíbí se The toilets absolutely stank and the road so close behind was so so noisy

Doporučit přátelům Navštívit znovu

Líbí se Large pitches
Close to lake and activities
Good location
Very basic at the min
If the washing and toilet facilities were improved would return

Nelíbí se -Toilet and washing facilities are very poor for price - if site was fully booked unsure how 3 female toilets and 3 male would cope
-could not control shower temp and found it very hot during the heatwave with little ventilation so was very uncomfortable
- no area to wash face, teeth or hands etc
-luckily staff was on site to discuss showers which were not working after closing but had tried number first which did not work - luckily staff members still on site
-no real check in and during extreme busy periods day visits parked in camping bit(secure for tent?)

Líbí se Pitch sizes were great
Camping field was great
Location next to lake was great

Nelíbí se Only 1 sink.
The smell from the toilets was horrendous
Had to pay each day to use the lake so a really expensive trip for a very very basic site.

Od správce: Thank you for your feedback, Catherine. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed the spacious pitches, camping field and lakeside location, and we appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed comments following your stay.

As this is a newly opened campsite, we know there are areas that require improvement and your feedback has been genuinely helpful. We fully recognise the concerns raised regarding the toilet facilities, washing-up provision, site security and communication, including the contact number issue, all of which are being reviewed as we continue developing the campsite experience.

Lake activities are booked separately to camping, allowing guests the flexibility to choose how they would like to spend their stay. Camping guests are also provided with a discount code to use against lake activities during their visit.

Thank you again for your honest and constructive feedback. Comments like yours are incredibly valuable during these early stages and will help shape improvements moving forward.

Od správce: Thank you for your lovely review, Maria. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and that you loved the bell tent. It’s great to hear everything was spotless and that the fire pit and complimentary wood helped make your stay extra special.

We really appreciate you taking the time to leave such kind feedback, especially during our very first opening weekend. We hope to welcome you and your family back again soon.

Líbí se Location, good pitch size, great for access to the lake

Nelíbí se More washing up facilities, shower rooms need to include basin for washing and toothbrushing etc.

Toilets require servicing more regularly

Od správce: Thank you for your review, Nick. We're really pleased to hear you enjoyed the location, the generous pitch sizes, and the easy access to the lake.

As this was our first weekend open, we’re definitely still learning and really appreciate the constructive feedback regarding the washing-up facilities, shower room basins, and toilet servicing. Comments like yours are incredibly helpful as we continue improving the site and facilities for guests.

We’re glad you had an enjoyable stay overall and look forward to welcoming you and your family back again soon.

Líbí se Lovely position and each pitch was big enough despite it being very busy.

Nelíbí se Toilets and showers were adequate but there were no wash basins ( apart from three to wash dishes) thus nowhere to clean your teeth.
We were initially asked to pay to go into the lake area. This was not made clear anywhere on the website or in the ( many) emails we received before arriving.

Od správce: Thank you for your review, Bridget. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the setting and the spacious pitches, especially during such a busy weekend.

As this was our very first weekend open, we’re still learning and really appreciate your helpful feedback regarding the facilities. We completely understand the point about having dedicated wash basins for brushing teeth and general washing, and it’s something we’re already taking on board as we improve the site.

Lake access information and charges were included in our pre-arrival emails, but we appreciate the feedback and will review how clearly this is communicated to guests ahead of their stay.

We’re glad you enjoyed your stay overall and hope to welcome you back again soon.

Líbí se Next to the lake so perfect for visiting. Bell tents were nice and clean.

Nelíbí se Toilets for dirty and no handwashing area. Washing up area limited to just 1 sink for everything. Showers were ok if working which wasn’t guaranteed.

Od správce: Thank you for your feedback, Glenn. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed the lakeside location and found the bell tents clean and comfortable.

As this was our very first opening weekend, we know there are areas where improvements are needed and we really appreciate you taking the time to highlight them. We fully recognise the issues raised around the toilets, showers, handwashing facilities and washing-up area, and these are all things we are actively reviewing as we continue developing the site and improving the guest experience.

We’re glad you still enjoyed your stay overall and hope to welcome you and your family back again.

Od správce: Thank you for your review, Jenny. We’re so pleased to hear you loved the bell tents, found the beds comfortable, and enjoyed the location by the lake. It’s great to know you’d like to return.

We really appreciate your honest feedback regarding the showers and facilities. Unfortunately, we experienced unexpected issues with the showers during our very first opening weekend, and while we were working hard behind the scenes to resolve them, we completely understand that clearer communication on site would have made a big difference to guests. Your comments have been really helpful and this is something we’ll improve going forward.

We also appreciate the suggestions regarding additional washing-up facilities and separate lake entry for bell tent guests during busy periods, and we’ll certainly take these ideas into consideration as we continue developing the site experience.

Thank you again for staying with us and we hope to welcome you back again soon.
