Walks around the lakes to offsite local nature reserve & cafe. Walking distance to Retford.

Sorry to say but toilets, showers, facilities not fit for use - absolutely disgusting. No staff around, no one to greet us on arrival. Cafe, bar, pool table mostly closed. Electric off all night, no one around to fix it and no offer of a refund. Other campers asking us for help as no staff around. The place is busy with fishermen coming and going at all hours. We passed the local tip on entrance, and water treatment works (stench & flies). Loads of pot holes which had been filled but still very much a problem. Only staff visible during our stay were those who came along around 9am on the day we were leaving, on their tractors making loads of noise for a couple of hours. Made no effort to say hello, or wish us a happy new year, or thank us for our custom etc.
Hardstanding pitch, which was only accessible by driving and walking across grass/mud.
On the island in the middle of the lake are several great big piles of scrap metal which is an absolute eyesore and adds to the experience of being on a tip.

Nothing open didn’t even no we was coming

Nice view

Pitchup said to check in in tackle shop then the staff were quite rude in the tackle shop and said I was in the wrong place. Reception was closed. Toilets were not the nicest, there was a cigarette butt on the toilet seat.

Nice for fishermen

Toilet block awful, no soap in dispenser( not a bottle,)no water in either tap in the one I used and shower switch fell off the wall as I left( didn’t use shower) . Hard to find fresh water taps

The views were really pretty
Staff were lovely
Great breakfast available if needed

Toilets were too far from our pitch but would not stop us going again would just chose a different pitch
If there is a fishing competition on then be prepared for loads of cars around the edge of the ponds if a car had parked near us we would have struggled to get the van out

Absolutely everything

Nothing

Fishing and quiet area

Breakfast

No one or no signs to say what to do where to go and no one answered the phone answer machine said closed, it said arrive before seven and we did.
