Liked We had an absolute ball for my son's first camping trip. The site had everything we needed to make full use of the activities at the lake. Yes there is road noise which I had seen people moaning about online but I wasn't going for a week of relaxation. Our aim was adventure so we got what we paid for. All the staff are lovely and work really hard. It was lovely to see so many families pitching up at the lakeside for the day. Good old fashioned fun and no tablets in sight.

Disliked Toilets a bit smelly as they are essentially posh portaloos but it didn't spoil anything. If you want luxury toilet blocks, go elsewhere and stop moaning

From the manager: What a brilliant review – thank you! We absolutely love hearing that your son’s first camping trip was such a success and that you came for an adventure and made the most of everything Alderford has to offer. “Good old fashioned fun and no tablets in sight” might just be one of our favourite descriptions! It’s exactly what we love seeing too – families enjoying the lake, getting outdoors and spending proper time together. Thank you as well for the lovely comments about our team. They work incredibly hard, particularly during the busy summer months, so we’ll be sure to pass this on. We appreciate the feedback on the toilets too. They are serviced regularly throughout the day, but we know they’re not quite the same as a permanent campsite toilet block and this is something we’re continually looking to improve. We hope your son has caught the camping bug now and that we’ll see you all back for another adventure soon!
