Gunthorpe Camping

Secure, peaceful site. Not overcrowded. Lovely clean accommodation and facilities. Still work in progress with washing up area but good start. Welcomed by host. Near river walks, pubs and restaurants. Will return. Received booking confirmation texts and directions etc.

Very friendly small site good facilities and clean. They were amazing at accommodating some additional tents so we could race at the water sports centre

Thank you so much hope to be back soon

Very clean, toilet and shower facilities excellent

The space, the security, the location near a cycle path and a family friendly pub

Needed a washing up area and shorter grass

Nice location, tents set up well for young children

No washing up facilities and toilets yet to be finished.

Great secure bell tent site near to the river with your own picnic table, 3 plug electricity outlet, kettle, double bed and 2 futon type chair to single mattress beds for the squids. So much to do around the area would have liked another couple of days. Great hosts, see less with directions, access and logs for fire if you need it. Very relaxing site with plenty of play space for the squids too.

Beautiful, peaceful, friendly site. Completely secure - fenced all round with secure gate, so perfect for the kids to run about, and also for leaving the bikes just propped up against the fence all day.
Fire pits and bbqs are encouraged, so it was lovely to sit out in the evening, and just enjoy the peace and quiet. It backs on to a field with cows in it, so a lovely view.
Out the gate and over the road is the river and a wonderful cycling/walking trail, highly recommend giving it a go.
Showers and toilets are clean.
The bell tent had a power supply/plus sockets, kettle, camping bunk beds for the kids and a confine double bed, also fairy lights, which were handy as night lights. We had everything we needed and were very happy :-)
The owners very friendly and welcoming.

Nothing

We loved the location as you have fantastic pubs, cafe, bistro restaurant on your doorstep! The fields were really peaceful and the tents were spacious & comfortable! Toilets & shower were clean, easily lit up at night and really warm! It felt like they had under floor heating.
A fantastic spot and we will definitely be coming back here again :) thank you Anthony & Lesley x

Super helpful hosts and a lovely area to stay. Nice solid picnic bench at the side of the tent. Also good that site was gated.

Quite a plain site.

Location is private, through coded gates, with the tents in a lovely orchard overlooking fields and farmland. It was incredibly peaceful and tranquil with only the sound of birds.
Tent was ideal for the two us, although may have been a little cosy if the teenage kids were here also. A little point, remember temperature drops at night. Our fault but we could have done with a duvet instead of just sleeping bags.
Loved the provision of electricity, kettle and comfy been bags. Great that each tent had its own outside picnic table.
Toilet facilities were a work in progress however the small block was warm and clean. I have to say the shower was superb, loads of pressure and hot.
It may be on the list, as there was further development work in progress, to have washing up facilities.
Met the owner briefly and he was extremely friendly and helpful. Although I'm not sure it would always be possible we appreciated the chance to check out later given we left at 4.30am for me to do a triathlon and returned at 1.30pm. Thankyou.
Overall locations is wonderful. Outside you have the River Trent and a number of pubs and restaurants within 100m, all set in a lovely village.
The site is handily located for the National Water Sports Centre and indeed Nottingham Centre.
I can recommend the Budgens Farm Shop just down the road at Lowdham.

There is nothing I can say we disliked. It would look much nicer if the section from the gate to the entrance to the orchard was tidied up a little with the removal of the old white goods.
