East Retford, Nottinghamshire, England
Powered grass tent campsite
Liked The stream running through the camp was great for the kids as well as the rope swings and zip lines
Disliked The facilities unfortunately let this site down greatly. The toilets and showers blocks were not cleaned at all and were nothing short of disgusting and unsanitary. We did tell the owner but nothing changed. The shower holder just fell off the minute you moved it. Toilet roll all over the floor. Toilets covered in faeces. No space in either the toilets or showers.
On arrival the pitches aren't marked out so its a guessing game as to where to pitch your tent however if you have a short electric hook up you would be screwed as they arent placed next to your tent always.
The ground is also very uneven so expect your tent to be in a dip or on a mound.
The washing up shack only has 1 sink so you often had to queue to wash up. Then its pot luck if you get hot water.
To say this place is a wedding venue is shocking. Im not sure how anyone could be happy with the facilities for their guests!
Also the electric is only low voltage. Something you dont find out until you get here as there is no pre welcome email sent with check in details and FAQ.
The first night the electric went off on the whole campsite on a few occasions. When asking a staff member we were informed that it must be someone on sites fault for having a household appliance but surely the pitches electric hook up would trip not the whole campsite?! Not ideal when younare trying to cook and have people in your group that has a CPAP machine for sleeping therefore electric is essential!
