What customers say
This campsite gets rave reviews for friendly staff, clean facilities, and a lovely woodland setting. Guests loved the peaceful vibe, spacious sites, and proximity to pubs & attractions. The playground is a hit. Minor gripes included pitch leveling, occasional mud, and facility distance. Improvements are underway, though some upkeep is still needed.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Good site for children but can be too busy/packed in.
Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The pitch being so close to the kids park. The grounds are well kept.
Disliked The pitches are far too close together. There aren’t many walks in the surrounding woods. The toilet and shower block isn’t monitored as closely as it should be. One of the blocks was out of order so we had to walk to the other side of the camp site with small children for the toilet in the night.

My only suggestion would be to have fairy lights in the hot tub area.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Great location, beautiful views. Clean and friendly site. Good access to all areas that we wanted to visit. Dog friendly ours had a lovely time.
Disliked Could do with another toilet/shower block. It got busy at peak times. But they're clean and well maintained.
Also some signs to point the way to the woodland walk.. we found it on our last day.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Really friendly staff.
Great little playground space for the kids to play at.
Really quietened down in the evening with a general relaxed vibe.
Short 15 minute walk to two lovely little pubs.
Clean toilets, showers and washing up space.
Disliked Non electric pitches are mostly on a slope so limited number of ideal pitches available.

Liked Really liked this holiday park. Nice and small. With everything around you. Reception staff lovley and welcoming. We really enjoyed this site, the kids loved the park and the woods behind us with the dogs. It was very peaceful and the other campers around was friendly and respectful. Clean showers and toilets.
Disliked Would be better if the showers were on for long enough. Washing your hair with shampoo and having to press the shower on again as it kept turning off after 10 seconds each time was abit annoying. But other than that I had a lovley time.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The playground was great. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice hot showers. Lovely walks nearby. Great to be surrounded by tall trees and woodland. Two great pubs a short walk away. One does nice food, the other shows sports and has a pool table.
Disliked The site is a hill. Some flat parts for tents. Would be great if there was a cafe nearby.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Pitch size was really good, clean site overall.
Playground was great for the kids.
Toilet facilities were modern.
Staff were welcoming.
Easy to get to from the M1, although smaller streets to get to the site.
Plenty of food shops within 5-10 mins drive.
Was also able to order takeaways to the site for a night that we didn't feel like cooking, I'd recommend the local chinese.
Disliked Toilets ran out of paper a few times during busy times, maybe just carry your own to avoid this.
Toilet block was at the top of a hill on site compared to the tent area at the bottom, had to carry a torch to walk up at night.

Sorry about the hill and we do our best to keep up with the toilet roll demand.
Would definitely come back if we could be placed on a level pitch
Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Facilities were well looked after, nice warm shower, friendly staff, in the shop there was options to buy things to make a fire with
Disliked Sewer smell throughout our stay which was really off putting. We were also on a slope, I know when you’re camping you’re out in nature but maybe they should block off the sloped pitches as it felt as though we were falling out of bed all night
