  • Family-friendly Berkshire site alongside a freshwater lake
  • A 10-minute drive from Reading town centre and its museums
  • A short walk from an aqua park with a beach, café and watersports
At Caversham Lakes, you might find yourself wild swimming the morning away or rustling up a barbecue after a lively afternoon of paddleboarding. That’s because this family-friendly site is alongside a freshwater lake in Berkshire and it’s within walking distance of a family-friendly beach, aqua park and open-water swimming and paddleboarding activities. Wet and wild your stay might just be – handily enough, the site has portable toilets and cold-water showers so that you have somewhere to rinse off after the water activities. And if you’re hungry, just plant yourself down at the lake’s beach bar and café, which serves food and drinks throughout the day. If you’d rather be the chef yourself, barbecues are permitted on site, as long as they’re raised off the ground. There’s a no-noise policy past 10pm so that everyone can have a peaceful night’s sleep in this rural setting. Be sure to book any activities in advance – the operators are separate from the site. While you’re hatching your plan of action, it’s also good to know that Reading town centre is only 10 minutes’ drive away too (so, you’ll have easy access to museums, tasty food venues and the likes). Caversham Lakes is a spacious, back to basics site with pitches alongside the lake and lots of space for everyone to spread out and have a wild time.
