What customers say
Spacious, well-located site with friendly staff. Guests love the natural setting, ample room, and campfires. Kids enjoy the adventure playground and farm. Facilities are basic but clean, though portaloos & limited showers/sinks can be an issue when busy. Good value, easy London access.

Nicht gut!
Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked Nähe zu London
Disliked Schwer zu findener, unebener, urbaner Grünbereich mit eigensinniger Einteilung. Der ist zwar frei zu wählen, jedoch selbst bei der Anfahrt Vorsicht walten zu lassen. Nach 17uhr keine Nutzung von Spielplatz oder anderen Einrichtungen, da wir explizit ein Campingplatz mit Spielplatz suchten, war dies natürlich enttäuschend . Die Dixi-Klos waren wirklich nicht sauber und die Duschen unansehnlich, diese bedürfen für den aufgerufenen Preis wirklich ein Upgrade! Zudem hatte sich leider ein sichtlich nicht gesundes Kind vor den einzigen Trinkwassereinrichtungen übergeben. Wir ziehen direkt weiter…

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked Really spacious campground, quiet surroundings
Disliked really awful toilets (just 2 smelly dixies), have to walk to guest toilets on other side of country park for decent offering. Only 1 outside shower. Why?

Great campsite
Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked I love this campsite. I stayed here before a year or more ago and it was great this time too. Plenty of space, friendly staff and neighbours, everything worked well, no problems. I love that you can have a fire here. All good! Thanks very much.

We'll definitely be back, staff were all very friendly
Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lots of space, the kids enjoyed the farm and playground.
I really appreciated that the camp site has a security on site and that they walk around the field in the evening.
Disliked Having to pay to have a fire.
The port a loo style toilets were a bit gross, people leaving No. 2's visible instead of continuing to flush was a constant problem and not nice to have to deal with when young kids are desperate to use the toilet.
