Barlow Country Club

Positiv Lovely site, quiet and guests obeyed park regulations

Positiv Great private pitch sheltered quite nice fishing around the corner

Negativ No toilet facilities but we new that

Positiv The location was superb, the pitches were the biggest ive seen and surrounded by 10 foot hedges that had recently been trimmed giving fantastic privacy, the grass on the pitches as well as the main area was also recently cut, the whole area was clean and tidy, easy access to the power and water outlet as well as easy access to the toilet and sink waste, on the day we were arriving we had a text message with all the instructions we needed and communication with the site was quick and helpful, local pubs and caffe were fantastic serving lovely food in a great venus. A perfect location to base yourself.

Negativ This in no way affected how much we enjoyed our stay but needs attention, there is a large fenced of area for the bins, unfortunately none were labelled so we didn't know which was general waste or recycling etc, if they were set out with labelling it would be easier to dispose of the waste but again its not a deal breaker thus the 10 star review

Positiv Large, private pitch.

Negativ Couldn't really understand why it's called a "Country Club" but that didn't really matter.

Positiv The size of the pitch was really generous.

There are some fabulous circular walks from the site which were enjoyed with our dog.

This was a peaceful site for the most part. There were some parties around that we could hear but they finished at reasonable time.

Fantastic pub in the village Tickled Trout food was delicious staff were lovely.

Negativ We weren’t greeted at any point but had good text directions and instructions the day before and day of our arrival.

Hedges very untidy and way too high.

Hard standing required weeding.

The Elsan point was in a shed that was difficult to unbolt and high off the ground.

Waste water area was untidy and in disrepair. Bin area just a jumble of numerous bins.

The whole site was in great need of some TLC which is a shame as it has great potential.

Unsure why it calls itself a Country Park.

The fishing lakes beside the site were fabulous but there was no easy access from the pitches making it less attractive. Very disappointed in it and definitely not value for money. I guess the fees haven’t changed since the facilities block fell into disuse. Can’t emphasise enough how beautiful this could be if some tension was given to these areas.

Positiv Private pitches and quiet area.
Nice dog walks.
2 nice local pubs in walking distance.
Nice cafe on site.

Negativ Shower and toilet facilities not working

Positiv Easy to find an access ,Excellent pitch,very quiet and peaceful,enjoyed are stay ,an will be booking again ,never got to try the cafe ,maybe next time

Negativ Nothing

Positiv The pitches were spacious, well spaced and having our own individual water supply made life easier. The site was clean and tidy with well mown grass. Night time security was okay with locked gates. Level pitches.

Negativ The hedges around the pitches were a bit too high and imposing. The padlock on the gates at night was fiddly and time consuming. The site would have benefited with lighting at the gate, chemical disposal point and in general.

Positiv The whole site! We loved the secluded individual pitches, location and the peacefulness. The pitches were all very tidy and maintained.

Positiv The tree-lined, enclosed pitches offer ample privacy and the delightful sounds of birdsong.
Prompt response to text messaged queries.

Negativ The gate is broken.
The electric hookup is functional, but dirty and partially obscured by trees.
The on-site cafe is actually a 10-minute walk away, through the Fisheries.
There are many huts, buildings etc that appear to be abandoned.
There is no visible staff.
There is no country club.
