What customers say
Well-kept site, spacious, level pitches (many with hook-ups). Friendly staff, secure access, great canal-side location near a pub. Clean, spacious showers, though dated. Road/rail noise a factor; views vary. Canal access involves lock gates. Arrange late arrival access.

Overall a lovely sight, right on the canal so great for walks
Powered gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked The space, the peace & quiet and the choice of facilities
Disliked I asked if the sanitary block beside the office was locked at night. I was told it was not.
However, we are early risers, when I went over for my morning shower they were locked. It was too cold to go into the open top block so I passed on my shower

Lovely site
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Lovely spacious site, friendly staff, good pub and restaurant
Disliked Nothing other than the site is easy to miss and you can drive past (to which we did)

Generally a nice site but let down by the shower facilities.
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Generous sized pitches, welcoming staff, relaxed site, secure gate system, good pub next door.
Disliked Shower/toilet block, very tired looking and in desperate need of a decobweb and floor scrub. A mop & bucket to go over after use would probably improve things no end.
Close to the road and trainline so fairly noisy from an early hour.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Pitch size was generous. Electric and water on the pitch. Gated access was good for security.
We were informed on the day of arrival that they were short staffed so were given the access details over the phone.
Disliked As we never got to see any staff, we didn’t know where all the facilities were and couldn’t find the chemical disposal before we left.
Not very well lit.
No path to the toilets.
The showers were dirty and were in desperate need of a deep clean.
Road and rail noise may bother some people.
