What customers say
Pitches are usually spacious and well-kept, many with water/electric. Lovely marina/canal setting for walks and a pub. Staff are friendly and helpful. Facilities are a bit dated, but clean. WiFi and road potholes are noted, though some road work is happening. Limited toilets/showers can be an issue.

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked It's our third visit to Kings Orchard Marina. Overall, it's a lovely site with clean facilities available. Reception staff are friendly and helpful.
We like it for the surrounding area and a short drive to the National Memorial Arboretum and some lovely villages.
Disliked Although given a Wifi code, we were unable to connect to it from the pitch we were on. Another Wifi booster nearer the further pitches would probably solve this problem.

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked Pitches were nice and secluded with hedges separating pitches, showers were nice and clean, and nice seeing the canal boats and walking along the bridle path of the canal.
Disliked Nothing

Perfect little spot for a few days getaway.
FHU gravel travel trailer campsite
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
FHU gravel travel trailer campsite
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.
