What customers say
Campers rave about Orcaber's super clean, modern washrooms and showers. They love the big, flat sites, lovely country setting with great walks, and the friendly staff. A few noted Wi-Fi or noise issues during busy periods, but most want to come back.

Camping pod (large)
Liked This is a fantastic place, the pod we stayed in was lovely and cozy, even though it snowed. The showers are brilliant, very clean and hot. They have two shower heads at different heights which is great if you don't want to wet your hair. Jamie and his wife(the wardens) were super friendly and helpful, went above and beyond. The showers and toilets were a short walk from the pods, this was a little inconvenient in the dark. I would suggest a couple of hooks in the pod for coats would be really handy.We also went to the new inn at Clapham for Sunday roast which was lovely and would recommend, it's under new management and staff are very friendly

Great site
FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Spacious pitches, lovely shower & toilet block. Friendly staff.
Disliked Shop had no basics like bread, rice. A 50p dispenser would be useful as the reception/ shop was hardly open.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Honestly what did I not like I stopped on ST08 and it was so peaceful and relaxing
Everything was immaculate, the washroom had underfloor heating, the showers and toilet area were the best I have seen.
If I had to rate this campsite out of 100 I would seriously score it 1000!
Highly recommended i will be back 100% the best campsite I have ever stayed on
Disliked I’m usually one to complain but I couldn’t fault this place in any way shape or form
Hats off to the owners

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked Nice well looked after site, the size of the pitch was very good, toilet and shower block was very well maintained and always clean plus plenty of space, loads of nice walks to go with your dog.
Disliked Fenced the camping field up with 12v electric tape and put sheep on but didn't put any signs up to say it was live my dog and a few more got a little shock.
