Basingstoke Canal Centre

Canal Centre (added by manager 03 Jun 2010)

Our picturesque campsite with a waterfront setting is the perfect place to stay when visiting the Basingstoke Canal and local area. Toilets and shower facilities are provided along with water points, waste disposal and a new dish washing area. We also have a token-operated power-point to charge your mobile or power your hairdryer. The Campsite is open throughout the year although you will need to book in advance. Please note that Friday and Saturday nights are very popular. To book please call us on 01252 370073. When booking we will need to take a non-refundable deposit that is equal to the first nights stay on site. This can be done over the phone via debit/credit card.
