What customers say
This is a friendly, well-maintained campground with spacious sites and a beautiful riverside setting. Guests loved the great food and welcoming atmosphere of the on-site pub, plus the live music. While the women's washrooms are updated and well-liked, the men's need work. Some guests noted it can get busy, especially during peak season.

Liked Nothing not to like for a nice simple holiday with the benefits of the pub being there and the food truck that comes in the morning and evening.

Wouldn't stay there again
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Lovely walks along the river Pleasant bar staff
Pitch was perfect position sunrise to sunset
Disliked Toilets for just being refurbed come out of the toilet wash your hands and you have to walk into the shower block to dry them or you could come out of the toilet open the door cross contamination because you've just been to toilet wash your hands then dry them.
Some pictures were in the middle of the grass verge electric wires across the little Drive path so you have to be very very careful when walking along.
Other pictures relieving rubbish like baby wipes on the ground so they were blowing all over.
The gas bottles to heat the water for the outdoor kitchen was exposed to people kept turning it off so we had no hot water.

Overall great site, great facilities, great pints from the pub.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Group of 4, stayed for 3 nights.
As a first camping trip this was an incredible experience.
The campsite staff were hospitable, and so were the other campers.
Being our first trip, with a tiny car. It's fair to say we came a bit unprepared.
The campers next to us gave us hot water for pot noodles, and the pub provided us forks.
We sadly didn't see the river that is incredibly close to the campsite until the final night, but it was great to sit there with a drink and just talk about life.
Camping here was quiet and relaxed. There was no pressure from the outside world.
It's like a big network of people, who collectively help each other without batting an eyelid.
Disliked Leaving! We all enjoyed our stay thoroughly and are planning on rebooking for august!

Sullen owner but lovely site at a reasonable price
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Great location by the river Trent with good walks along the river with the dog. Spacious pitches. Didn’t use facilities as Moho was self contained. Pub didn’t open until 3pm for the days we were staying (Tues and Wednesday) but stayed and paid for an extra night as told by the owner they were doing food on Thursday
Disliked Lady owner was very abrupt and stern. We paid for an extra night as told by her they were doing food. This turned out to be Pizza only which was served in a box. Not quite the romantic meal we expected. If she was friendly would have given it a “ten”. Everything else was perfect
