Kingsmead Centre

Me gustó Nice space, tidy & clean.

No me gustó Would have been nice if the bed was made before arrival. Provision of a tea towel would have been useful (or a note to say one should be brought from home). More transparency about the internet would have been appreciated. Very draughty so access to heating would have been nice. Booked use of a high chair but one was not provided.

Del administrador: Thank you for your review. I'm sorry that your stay wasn't as good as you expected. Some of the issues that you mention were totally my fault -You did ask for me for the high chair and I completely forgot as we were so busy over the bank holiday. I can only apologise for my mistake. Likewise there should have been a tea towel in the caravan. If you had popped to reception we could have given you one. We would also have been happy to put the heating on for you, if we had known you were cold.

As for the internet, there is no hidden agenda on the charging, although I have messaged Pitchup.com to see whether we can make it clearer that it is not free. We only charge to cover the expensive costs of providing the wifi in our rural location but it is fast, reliable and covers the whole site including the remote woodland camping pitches. The most you will pay to connect is £1.50 per day, which we feel is affordable and acceptable for the service offered.

Once again, I'm sorry I overlooked your high chair but a visit to reception could have very quickly sorted all your issues and allowed you to enjoy your stay in comfort.

Me gustó Excellent facilities, lovely quiet friendly site

No me gustó On a hard standing pitch, there was quite a drop front to back but more than doable

Me gustó Absolutely loved the location, the pitches were well set apart for space and privacy. It was quiet after 9Pm which was delightful. The footpaths and site itself was beautiful, emersed in nature. The facilities were well done and clean, The shop was fabulous too! definately will come back again.

No me gustó Only problem the toilet tissue ran out in one of the washroom areas, bins weren't emptied and the wash basins were out of order. But none of these things were an issue as the site was quiet, I suspect it could be a problem if there were lots of people in need.

Del administrador: Thanks for your comments. Great to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately, one of the taps was broken over the weekend and we unable to get the correct replacement for a few days but there were more sinks available.in other areas. The taps are now all working.

As for the bins - these were only full as the collection lorry was a couple of days behind schedule due to the bank holiday

Me gustó Very clean, tidy site. Caravan was large and well equipped, nice to have the deck area too. Very peaceful area and great dog walking field

No me gustó Nothing in regards to the site or accommodation
Had to pay for WiFi but wasn't too much but factor this in if you have teenagers

Del administrador: Thank you for your useful comments. It was lovely to meet you all.

I have spoken to Pitchup today to see what can be done to show better information about the Wifi. In the meantime, I have uploaded a photo of our pricing list to help future guests plan accordingly.

Me gustó Really lovely site with great sized pitches that felt secluded whilst being close to amenities. Well provisioned shop, great local walks, clean shower and toilet blocks.

Me gustó This was a trial weekend for me to see how I got on with solo camping.
Kingsmead was the perfect venue for me.
I was on the Meadow (no electric hook-ups) It's a lovely big space, and soooo quiet! You could see every star at night too 😊
There were essential facilities on the field - bins, water and portaloos which were perfectly ok (I was expecting festival conditions - these were clean!) But the permanent block was only a short walk away, with wet rooms (shower, toilet, basin-great idea) and a fridge/freezer.
I absolutely loved my stay and will certainly return.

Me gustó Very nicely laid out site, lovely secluded woodland pitches and the open pitch area was also nice. Very friendly and helpful staff, good clean showers and toilets. The site shop has everything including camping accessories.
Most phone signals are bad but WiFi connection is very good value

Me gustó Really loved our stay so cute. The bedding was so crisp people very friendly I love the way all the pitches are slightly private.
Definitely would like to stay again
Private bathroom was definitely a surprise love that idea. Felt very cheeky.

Del administrador: Thanks for the review and photos of your stay. Nice to hear that you enjoyed the private bathroom!

Me gustó Pefect location!
Such a peaceful place to stay.
The owners are super friendly and even opened the shop late for us as we were running behind time.
They also helped us move our caravan and couldnt be any more helpful
The area is very quiet and has a friendly vibe and is the cleanest campsite we have ever stayed on.
Highly recommend stopping here, wish we had stayed longer.

No me gustó nothing perfect stay
