What customers say
A lovely spot for families, with top-notch facilities, spotless loos and showers. Staff are a gem, always friendly and helpful. Plenty of room on pitches, a great central play area and tidy fishing pools. A quid for showers is a bit steep for some, and the railway line can be a bit noisy at times. The cafe’s breakfast is great value.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
I would avoid during rush period otherwise could be great site.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked The pitches were excellent—level, very spacious, and ideal for a comfortable setup. There were great options for kids, including a nice play park, and the relaxed rules made the stay enjoyable. We also appreciated that barbecues and campfires were allowed.
Disliked The experience was let down by the toilet and shower facilities, which were clearly overwhelmed and insufficient for the number of guests. Management did apologize during check-in, which almost felt like they anticipated these issues. Showers cost £1 for 5 minutes, but the water pressure was so poor (barely dripping) that you’d need several coins just to have a reasonable shower. For what was provided, the charges felt unjustified—especially when many campsites offer far better facilities for free.
To make matters worse, the water supply stopped working on all three days of our stay. While the campsite has great potential, it simply couldn’t cope with the bank holiday rush. Perhaps things would be different on quieter days, but based on our experience during peak season, there’s a lot of room for improvement.

Not good enough. Dirty, smelly and not enough made overall
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Big open family space that was quiet after 11.
Friendly staff
Disliked Showers didn't work and were dirty. Not much signs of cleaning anywhere, some m very unpleasant smells around the site.
£1 coin for a 5 minute shower and it didn't work. Almost no water came out.
Two male and female showers for the whole of two massive fields crammed with tents and other campers.

clean toilets and shower facilities really make the campsite comfort.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked We stayed at Carney Pools Camping and Caravanning for 3 days and 2 nights and had a great experience. The site is very spacious, with plenty of room for camping and for children to play. The toilets and shower facilities were very clean and well-maintained. There’s also a supermarket just an 8-minute drive away, making it very convenient for supplies. The site manager was very friendly and helpful, which made our stay even more enjoyable.
Disliked One small downside is that the on-site shop has limited choices, so you may need to drive out for more supplies. Also, there is no shared fridge available.

Nice basic site. Good pub within walking distance.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked The play area in the middle of the field was great. I could keep an eye on child while in the van.
Close to railway line. Child loved this and the noise wasn’t a problem.
Disliked Could do with more showers and toilets.

Camping pod (four person)
Liked The pod was spacious and clean, the fishing was easy to sort out and well maintained. The area itself was so tranquil and the trains didn't really bother us at all actually.
Disliked The cafe wasn't open, I see reviews how good the breakfast was but they only open when the site is busy which is fair enough.

Good for just a fishing holiday, not so good for families with childre
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked -Fishing
-Park
-Cannock chase for the children 10 mins down the road. It's a must if you have children, and take a bike with them as they have so many lil bike tracks for them dotted round the forest, as well as loads of lil fun trails where younfind characters and lots of different parks dotted round the forwst also, it really is amazing.
-toilets were clean
- great customer service and let us change dates when we had a vehicle fault and couldn't make our original date.
Disliked -trains, we were on pitch 5 so basically back to back with train lines which went past like every 5 mins, even through the night, not good for a light sleeper.
-A bit too quiet for us, we went during the week because it's summer hols, thinking there would be lots of children there to play with our 3 children, but the place was so quiet, there was basically only us with a tourer and 1 tent on the first 2 nights so the children got bored very quickly with only having the park to keep them occupied.
- The rats, although I know it can't be helped it's out in the wild, but this rat ( we named him coolio haha as he was just not bothered anout people and would casually walk down paths not hiding just in the open) he would literally walk casually within a few cm's to caravan and not flicker an eyelid with us being there, even sitting there why we took a pic. Was funny at the time, but when you're leaving all kids toys out overnight you don't want rats be going all.over them.
