What customers say
A top spot for chill wild camping with plenty of space, often by the river. Campers rave about the clean loos, top staff, and peaceful vibe. Kids love the river, rope swings, and freedom. Basic but has fire pits/wood for sale. Easy check-in. Some note limited facilities/noise.

Overall good reasonably priced campsite.Would recommend
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Lovely campsite by the river. Plenty of fire pits available., can also purchase logs. 4 toilets/showerz
Disliked Quite a few aeroplanes flying over in the day. We had other campers set up right next to our tent and didn’t respect our space, even though there was plenty of space left in the field

Overall a really wonderful time and we will definitely be back.
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked We stayed here last year for the first time and come back this year. We already plan to return next year again! We love being able to just disconnect from the world. Being able to have a fire to sit around is a big plus for us. It makes it. As well as being able to go down to the river and just spend time with each other as a family without added distractions. The kids absolutely love exploring and finding different ways down to the river and going in the river.
We just absolutely love it.
Disliked Minimal things not really dislikes because without these we still loved every second. Last year the hut was open serving tea and coffee in the mornings and on the evenings- we didn’t know this had changed so didn’t pack tea and coffee making things but really missed it. (Like I said nothing major and we got over it quickly 1st world problems really 🤣).
Parts of the grass was really over grown which at parts we had to walk through because of where pitch availability was. Again nothing major. But I was just very on edge of ticks because I know they like long grass 🤣

Liked - Plenty of space even at peak times
- Great location with Warwick and leamington spa within 15 mins.
- clean accessible river (too shallow and overgrown to launch a cayak / paddleboard from - but there’s plenty of launch points a short drive away).
- The toilets were always clean and stocked
- Warm showers in 2 of the toilets
Plan ahead for the fact you need to take the rubbish away with you - there are some local skips open every day.
Would definitely come back!

Overall a really lovely place to visit.
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Just got back from a long weekend camping with a couple of other families. Absolutely idyllic, we all loved it and would definitely go back. Loads of rope swings for the kids to play on, lots of little bits along the river to explore, which was lovely and shady when the temperature was high. A lot of the time was spent paddling around and we had a last splash after packing the tents away 😁 Facilities-wise there are two toilets, and two toilet/wetrooms, and one washing up sink, so sometimes a bit of a queue but not too bad at all.
Disliked One thing to bear in mind is that all rubbish needs to be taken off site with you, and we’d packed our car to the max. We tried to separate out anything that we could burn in the fire pit to reduce what we needed to bin. Toilet roll is replenished daily but bring your own hand soap as there's none provided. Was kind of noisy until gone 11, so that’s worth bearing in mind if you’re going with little ones.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked It's great that you can pick any spot rather than have assigned pitches, and lovely that they are relaxed about having fires. Love the scenery and the fact it feels like a very well kept secret. *Lovely* location - the river is beautiful. Russell on-site makes it feel that the place is well looked after.
Disliked I liked the simple and quirky toilet block but having the showers in the same cubicle as the toilets meant in the morning it could be a very long wait for the toilet as two out of the four of them were being used as showers. Could be improved by having toilets and showers separated.
