What customers say
This well-maintained, secure site is praised for spacious, level pitches, clean, warm facilities, and proximity to the Grand Union Canal and a good pub. Staff are friendly and helpful. Some noted nearby road/rail noise; a few found facilities a walk away. Signage and late arrival access were noted. Highly recommended for stopovers and quiet getaways.

Leval pitches,
Powered gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked Lovely hard standing pitch. Great pub within walking distance. Would be great in the summer by the marina.
Disliked It was a bit of a walk to the toilet block along a muddy puddled road ,so not good in the night to pop to toilet. Showers where hot but mine was a bit muddy . Also road noise.

OK for an overnight stop. Never say never, but would not be top choice
Powered gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked Well spaced & proportioned level pitches.
Clean well equipped facilities.
Short walk to canal side pub.
Disliked A little pricey, but it did include unmetered electric.
Only 2 toilets and 2 unisex showers with 1 additional disabled facility to share between campsite and canal marina. Facilities are quite remote from campsite which feels like it is an after thought bolt on.
No clear signage into camp site (behind black gates, visible immediately as you turn off the road).
Surprising amount of heavy traffic noise from adjacent B488. Low level noise from railway line that others mentioned.
Yes it was rainy when we stayed, but pot holed muddy gravel roads around the site.
