Camping pod (superior)

Liked: Stayed here glamping for the first time and I must say it's a mixed feeling. The pod was comfortable but I failed to read that there were no toilets in the pod. I had suffered with with terrible gas all day so you can only imagine my horror when I realised there was no loo inside. The walk each time to the toilet block was a massive risk, but one I had to take. To say I had a close call on occasions is an understatement. Overall though the experience was a good one, and I would definitely book again.

morgan r. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Shelduck (area 2) powered grass site

Liked: We liked the ability to pitch the tents and vans together to make a campsite where the kids could run around without fear of going into the road. The swimming is decent, aside from half the lockers not working and it being a 45minute session only. The new event area is very good, it’ll be interesting to see how the outside area fairs during the winter months/wetter periods. Parks aren’t complete, but they’re looking like they will be very much enjoyed by children.

Disliked: The common areas are surprisingly unclean, and the upkeep hadn’t been done. The park is under relatively new ownership and promised large changes and adaptations to the park which have happened; but unfortunately they’re just not keeping on top of cleaning or repairs. Many cans of beer were littered around the park, cigarette butts could be found all over the park and in common areas. Toilet doors were missing locks, toilet roll dispensers were broken and missing the fronts, toilet seats were also missing/broken in the campsite toilets. The arcade has a lot of different games, all giving out tickets to get very rubbish gifts, but the kids love it.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for sharing such detailed feedback about your stay we are glad to hear you enjoyed the flexibility of setting up your campsite and that the children had a safe space to run around. It’s also great to know you appreciated the new event area and swimming facilities, despite the minor issue with the lockers. We truly apologize for the cleanliness and maintenance issues you encountered, this is certainly not the standard we aim to provide, and we are taking your comments seriously. We appreciate your understanding as we continue to improve the park under new management, and we hope to offer a more polished experience on your next visit. Thank you again for your valuable feedback.

Standard camping pod

Liked: We spent a weekend at Billing Aquadrome and were delighted. Beautiful views and lots of attractions, especially for children. A great solution is the possibility of renting a standard camping pod instead of a tent, especially on colder days. A big plus is that the cottage has a heater and a socket. We loved the live music and the pool was perfect for cooling off during the day. We will definitely be back next year

Disliked: I wish they could renovate the cottages from the outside

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your delightful experience at Billing Aquadrome we are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful views, the variety of attractions for children, and the convenience of our camping pods. It’s great to know you appreciated the live music and found the pool refreshing. We also value your suggestion regarding the renovation of the cottages’ exteriors. Your feedback is important to us as we strive to enhance our guests' experiences. We can’t wait to welcome you back.
