Very dog friendly.
Unpowered grass site
Liked Fantastic site with lake for swimming and cooling off the dog. Brand new toilet and shower block that was kept beautifully clean. Helpful and friendly warden. Great views and location. Lovely countryside walks, with the off lead dog walking field a real bonus. Firepits to hire are much better than watching the TV.
Disliked Having to leave.
Level pitches, high standard of cleanliness. Scenic.

Liked Litton has become my favourite camp site we have stayed 3 times already this year and we will be back. The laid back, family and pet friendly vibe is just what you need for a chill out camping break. Facilities are great with shower blocks being new in this last year. Staff are friendly, food at the cafe is delicious and the lake is not only stunning at sunrise and sunset it is perfect for pond dipping, paddle boarding and swimming. Dog fields are always spotless and a great size for the dog to have a good run around. Everyone always enjoys our trips to Litton
