Liked: What a beautiful tranquil place. Only ten pitch’s so small area for tourers but a few cabins and statics over by the other lake. Still hardly saw a soul. Gorgeous views from the van. Open fields and hills beyond with a kite or two flying by. Lots of rabbits and squirrels around the site. Beautiful lakes, water so green! Big pitches and nice and flat. No shop or reception but a lovely big heated room with a pool table and two sofas. Great area to take a bottle of wine up and have a few games of an evening. I beat hubby 😁. Only staff we saw was Bob who was a right character and we loved him. Lovely chap. Not much around the site so you need a car really but there is a sort of diner/shop a little walk away but we didn’t try it. Plenty of space to walk your pooches around the lakes in the morning and so pretty. You are allowed to fish as a guest too. If you want chilled vibe. No hassle. Back to basics feel, this is your place. If you like a well organised site with staff and a shop and immaculate facilities this won’t be for you. We loved it.
Disliked: We were braced from the reviews about the facilities so weren’t shocked. And they really are not great. But on the positive the water was very hot and good strong jets. Just the facilities themselves really need updating and a good overhaul! Toilets in with the showers which was just plain weird. 4 of them but three really as one had no lock in the door. Nowhere to put your stuff at all except the floor (which was covered in grass and muck from the drains which overflowed every time someone showered) so you had to place it on the loo seat. But two didn’t have loo seats! You starting to get a feel of it now 😆. But as I say. Lovely actual shower. Just sort the drains and put up some holders and give it a bit of an update and it’ll be grand. One more point, google map your entrance first or it’s very easy to just sail by. The signage is not great at all.

Liked: Peaceful, picturesque site. Very hard to find via normal maps. Facilities are dated but clean and spacious. Management was very helpful to new inexperienced travellers, with the warden, Bob, being friendly and kind.
Disliked: Google maps sent us on a wild goose chase. We finally found the site after asking a few people.

Liked: Stunning place. Loved the tranquility of the site. Bob (the warden) was a really friendly guy. Always available if you needed anything. We didn’t meet Katie but the communications via email were spot on. We got talking to a couple of people who have stayed at Wigmore Lakes for a number of years and not one person had a bad thing to say about anyone. I can understand why. It’s bliss. Basic but clean facilities. Perfect for camping. Loved it! We will definitely be revisiting.
Disliked: We didn’t dislike anything. It was great

Liked: Lovely setting with nice level pitches.
Disliked: Unfortunately the toilets and showers were a letdown to the rest of the site, they need a deep clean and overhaul. Bad drain smell , mens toilets especially and outside. Caravan toilet waste emptying point very untidy.

Liked: Found all members of staff very helpful . Site was very well looked after and clean. Shower block clean and tidy. Pitch was off very good size . Pleasant lakes to walk around and have already recommended to a fisherman in our area. Will be making a return stay next season when we are in the area again. Would recommend to anyone travelling in the area to use as a base for English /Welsh touring.
Disliked: The strong winds but that was an act of "God " and we were protected by the break of trees and hedges around each pitch.
