What customers say
Pitches are generally spacious, well-kept with water/electric hook-ups. Marina/canal location's a big hit for walks & pub. Staff are a friendly bunch. Facilities a bit old but clean. WiFi and road potholes mentioned, but improvements noted. Limited toilets/showers for touring pitches is a common theme.

Perfect little spot for a few days getaway.
Fully-serviced gravel caravan site
Liked Perfect location.
Access via the canal was fantastic.
Great cycling routes.
Easy and short distance to shops and pubs.
The facilities were always clean.
The staff were really helpful and friendly.
Disliked Extended for a further 2 nights, buy because of the booking system we had to move pitch. In a motorhome it didn’t take long, had we have been in a caravan we probably wouldn't have extended our stay.
We were given a code for the wifi, but we couldn’t pick it up. We have starlink, so not really needed.

Cracking site
Fully-serviced gravel caravan site
Liked Large hard standing pitch with water and electric.
Great toilets and showers. £20 Deposit for the key but back in my bank as soon as I left.
Quiet , lovely marina with some beautiful narrow boats.
Great pub just down the tow path.
Disliked Not being able to see the marina from our pitch but wasn't a deal breaker.

Unpowered gravel caravan site
Liked Great little spot for a night away! Lady at reception rang to see if we would make it by 5pm (when reception closes) but sent pitch info via WhatsApp just in case we didnt. Map of site to show where you're going. 2 toilets with showers open 24/7 (it was quiet so perfect but may be a wait to use if busy. £20 refundable deposit gave for a key to the other toilets and gate to towpath. This was given back on return of key to reception upon leaving.
Really enjoyed our stay!

Ok for an overnight stop, but I wouldn’t want to spend any longer.
Unpowered gravel caravan site
Liked Very close to Lichfield. Toilets and showers nice and spacious and clean.
Disliked The toilets were a long way from the pitches, and there were only two of them. Added to that, the showers were in the same room as each toilet, so if someone was having a shower the toilet was out of action too, meaning a long wait at peak times. You could pay a £20 deposit for a key to a third shower/toilet combination, but that was even further away.

It was ok.
Unpowered gravel caravan site
Liked Staff were friendly
Location to Lichfiled was great
Pitches were clear and clean
Directions were clear
Plenty of bins
Disliked Check in times state 2pm to 5pm, rushed to get there for 5pm but it didnt seem to matter as we got a text anyway and others turned up much later.
Bit overpriced for what it was.
Quite a run down marina.
Showers/toilet not seperated so trying to get access to a toilet in the morning when everyone is showering was a pain.
Recommend to friends Visit again
Lovely peaceful stay, perfectly kept site.
