Makins Lakes

Μου άρεσε Easy site to book, stayed last weekend and agin this weekend. Close shops, great fishing. Loads of room for dog on 20m lead outside van. Toilets/showers clean, washing up area nice and clean and well lit. You are given a gate code so no probs after the 4pm deadline

Δεν μου άρεσε They could do with sorting some pot holes out, it’s not really a dislike but to be mentioned.

Μου άρεσε Great size pitch, toilets realky clean and warm in the block, there were only 2 showers (female) one was broken however the one that worked was lovely rain fall shower head. Great views of the lakes. Nice outdoor washing up area under cover.

Δεν μου άρεσε Needs a bench/seating area in the shower room. Grass was very boggy take your wellies. Some of the electric points are broken it was very hit and miss. Could really do with an electric point upgrade and more of them.

Μου άρεσε Close to water if I wanted to fish, toilet/showers close to most hard standing pitches. They previous people that have left bad reviews saying electric posts are damaged I didn’t see any of that.

Makins sent me a welcome txt message with gate code, yep I didn’t see anyone but I didn’t need to! It was all there

Δεν μου άρεσε Toilets are in good condition but could do with a more regular clean. There was muddy sinks but bear in mind this is a well known fishing destination, anglers probably nip up for a cheeky wash and …. You know what! It’s to be expected but o do think more often wc inspections or code locks added to the doors for camping only.

Μου άρεσε Toasty warm in the toilet block. Safe site with coded gate Quiet at night

Δεν μου άρεσε You need a long hook up cable . Very dark needs lights on road to toilet block . Washing up area messy glass on floor . Pitch very loose and all ends up in van and a bench in the shower would be good .

Μου άρεσε View of the lakes.

Δεν μου άρεσε No one to meet us. Didn’t see a member of staff in 4 days. Arrived 31/12 left 3/1. I suggest don’t open park new year if all amenities are closed. Shower block desperately needs a refit. Electric hook ups exposed to elements.

Μου άρεσε Nice lakes and walks nearby. Toilets were reasonable and warm in the winter. The pitches were well laid out and generally flat.

Δεν μου άρεσε The site was generally run down with little sign of good site management, which is a shame because correctly managed it could be a lovely site. Large potholes even though they had piles of hardcore material that could be used to fill them. The electrical hookups were mostly not working and in very poor or dangerous condition. The site should be shutdown whilst repairs are made. Live wires are literally exposed, whilst children run around playing and uneducated adults attempt to hookup their power leads to find a pitch that actually has power. I witnessed this on a daily basis, people setting up and then having to move to another pitch to find power. When we enquired about the problems we were told that the management team were on holiday and the site was closed, but they were taking bookings and people turning up daily to encounter the same issues. Regardless of any excuses, the exposed wiring could lead to a fatality.

Μου άρεσε Show/toilets fantastic. Best shower I've been in on a campsite how can any one moan about them? Laura was fantastic messaging us before we arrived and responding when we asked if we could overstay in the morning by a hour and half. Absolutely no problem. Don't read and believe all reviews, will come again when we are in the area!

Δεν μου άρεσε Nothing, yes your close to the m69 but that's for your convenience!
