Excellent site, really well organised with great facilities.
Electric grass pitch (riverside)
Liked Really excellent facilities, all kept very clean. Nice friendly welcome and information leaflet about site and local area. Beautiful unspoilt area. Wifi on site which was a real bonus.
Disliked With the benefit of hindsight I would have selected a hard standing pitch as I visited in school holidays (single traveller in campervan) and the grass pitch area was mainly occupied by families, which was fine but not as peaceful as some other areas of the site. I was attracted by the idea of riverside camping. There is actually a low fence between the pitches and the river and a 'riverside walk' which is accessed further up the site, which wasn't what I was expecting although I can see why that's been done.

Great campsite and perfect for astronomy enthusiasts
Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch (premium)
Liked Very nice site, with big pitche, clean facilities and friendly staff. Lovely positioned near a river and with direct access to it, great for relaxing holidays and very dog friendly. Our dog loved the enclosed dog field , and he was even welcomed with a tennis ball as a gift at Check in😍 Dogs even have their own shower and shampoo if needed. Facilities were very nice. toilets and showers were clean, nice dishwashing area, a few books, magazines and games available to borrow too. And of course the cherry on top and the main reason we wanted to see this campsite, the amazing sky full of stars (never seen so many and so beautiful to be fair) and their observatory with the telescope. Really nice touch 👌 There is no shop on site (they sell some ice cream though), so if you forget something at home your only choice is walking 30 min to Preisteigne or drive there if you can.
Disliked The bright lights near the observatory which obstructed the much expected views. We have still enjoyed the stars from the pitch but with the telescope not a lot of luck (the EV charger next to the dome was making so much light and was reflecting too much directly on it) . The cozy area created there is amazing and definitely a nice touch but would be even better in a darker area of the campsite 😁

From the manager: Thank you for the great review. We are are so glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and got to see the fantastic night skies we have been having at the moment. They have been incredible. Here at Rockbridge we like to make sure everyone is included when staying with us (even the dogs). We have started a small shop onsite with non perishable items but we are always open to suggestions if there is something you think would be great. You never know what we may have next year.
Hopefully we will see you again soon
Welcome break! Super site in beautiful surrounds with affable staff ♥️
Electric grass pitch (riverside)
Liked Warm, 'on-the-ball' welcome at reception and helpful, friendly staff
Super site
Spacious pitches
Excellent facilities
Wonderful location (riverside pitch)
Walks in every direction from site
Disliked Disconnecting my WiFi connection before checkout time of 11 am after a four-night stay was a surprise and disappointing! Especially as the internet would have been useful arranging onward travel and accommodation plans! 😔

From the manager: Many thanks for your review Louise, it is much appreciated. Sorry you had Wifi issues on the last day, we will look into this, as access to this is 24/7, we don't have remote access to switch it on or off.
See you again soon, all the team at Discover Parks.
A amazing clean campsite to go to. Definitely recommend and go again.
Electric grass pitch (riverside)
Liked This is the best campsite I have ever been to. It’s quiet, very clean and reception staff were polite, helpful, knowledgeable of the area and just amazing! Ice cream only at reception, there were no onsite shop which actually was ok and unique. If you drive less then 2 miles there’s a little shop with your essentials. There was always hot water for the showers, the shower cubicles weren’t wash rooms like other campsites they were actual glass cubicles so that when you came out within you room you had a dry area to stand with seat and handwash basin which for us was amazing! We were pitched by the river which was calming especially late evening and early morning hearing the trickling of water.
Plenty of walks around for my lab and boys loved going in river to play when we had the heat wave. Very refreshing!
For the first time we felt safe to leave camping chairs outside overnight and days out as did other fellow campers.
We were there when the eclipse and comets and the shooting stars was an amazing spectacle.
