Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked: The dog walking field was large and great for them to be let of their leads.

Disliked: Overgrown pitches with little or no view. Wash rooms were very tired and not at all inviting. Busy with commercial vehicles exiting pitches early each morning. Very unhelpful staff. Photos and description of the site are misleading.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked: Good location next to the marina, easy to get to Lichfield. We enjoyed the walk down the canal to the pub for dinner.

Disliked: Pitches were fine. We had no. 1 which wasn't the best view of the bins which was a shame. Loos and showers were a bit worn. The site is near a busy road and train line so was a little noisy.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked: Lovely well kept campsite Good wide pitches with some privacy screening of hedges Lovely looking marina and canal walk near by. Little shop, well kept toilets We enjoyed our little stay for one night in our camper with our 2 dogs.

Disliked: Wifi didn’t work for us as we were too far from the main hub I assume- but it wasn’t a problem really as we did have signal to still stream a film

Liked: Peaceful , pleasant location. Very helpful staff.

Disliked: These comments are not about disliking anything but a shop, cafe and a make over for the toilets would be great. Dumping waste water on our pitch seemed odd!

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked: The pitch was immaculate with power and its own water supply. Washrooms were clean and a good size. Staff were very friendly and catered to our needs immediately. The Plough pub half a mile away was great. Really good food and great prices. We will be returning next year. 5*.

Local attractions

Strap yourself in for a ride and put your bravery to the test at Drayton Manor Theme Park (20 minutes’ drive) or take things at a slower pace around Beacon Park (10 minutes), where there are 70 acres of wildlife and gardens. As you might already be able to tell, there’s a wide choice of things to entertain yourselves with in these parts… The Foxfield Light Railway (45 minutes) is one way to discover the Staffordshire countryside, on a steam train trip that has experiences like cream tea journeys or driver experiences. Other historical detours could include a visit to The Staffordshire Regiment Museum (10 minutes), a military museum, or the 150-acre National Memorial Arboretum (10 minutes). Outdoor activities on the mind? There’s a brief stroll around The Green Fairy Woods (10 minutes), great for kids, or miniature golf, sports courts, nature trails and play areas around Beacon Park (10 minutes). SnowDome (15 minutes) runs skiing, snowboarding and ice skating sessions or lessons. Meanwhile, Go Ape courses, bike rides and walks are a staple in the Cannock Chase District (20 minutes).
