California Chalet and Touring Park

A aimé Location by the lake, well planted site with lots of green screening. Security excellent.

N'a pas aimé No toilet paper in either ladies or Gents for some time. Ladies washroom flooded and dirty.
Watching a resident wash his quad bike with a hose, during the hose pipe ban. Water running down the road on site.

A aimé Like the site. Very quiet site and just right for us.

N'a pas aimé Need to replace some light bulbs in there pillar lights. Could do with a extra step at the men's toilets it rather high.

A aimé The surroundings. Lovely tall trees and nice country park to walk around right next door. Quiet site, friendly people and a friendly cat called munchkin

N'a pas aimé Extremely small pitches. Literally not even enough space between neighbouring pitches to peg out your guy lines. If one tent set on fire they all would. No privacy or space. Should not allow gazebos because there’s absolutely no room. They also allow parking on pitch, also a tight squeeze for this. If you wanna hear your neighbour snoring maybe this is the place for you. Run out of toilet roll and showers far too hot (and I like a hot shower) couldn’t change this either. Showers were not cleaned between Saturday and Sunday meaning a complete mess Sunday morning, so decided to wait until we got home.

A aimé We chose this campsite for proximity to Reading festival, and it was only a 30 min cab journey away.

Staff were cheery, site was relatively quiet, local country walks.

N'a pas aimé Pitch size for tents is not as advertised at all. Booking system says 9mx9m, which I emailed to confirm as the pictures looked very small. Again I was told 9mx9m, but on arrival the pitches measured no more than 6m in width.

Very expensive for a tent pitch, the site was obviously catered a lot more to motor homes which we did expect going in.

When the toilets/showers were cleaned they were to a good standard, but we stayed over a bank holiday weekend so cleaning was sporadic.

A aimé Peaceful setting and good location, there was lots to do in the vicinity. The park and cafe nearby were a real bonus

N'a pas aimé The camping spots were really crammed in. 3 pitches would have been better than 5! What a shame that you completely let yourself down on not keeping the showers and toilets clean and stocked over the weekend! The showers didn't drain properly so standing in others shower water and the floor was filthy. Not cleaning over the weekend is a bad decision! My 5 stars reduced to 2 because of that. Not what I paid for.

A aimé Pitch was a good size

N'a pas aimé Site seemed a bit neglected in parts, it was clear there was some development going on but 1st impressions wasn't good. It was clear that the site had long term residents there so felt a bit like was invading their site. Toilet and shower facilities could do with some TLC as they felt tired and grubby, same used nappy on the floor in toilets for over 24 hours. Signs were stuck on doors with some sort of caution tape which looked scruffy. Toilet disposal area was disgusting and grid covered in dirty toilet paper. Shower went of about evey 15 seconds and there was no where to put your clothes without them getting wet. Site has lots of potential if managed properly and some basic maintenance and care was taken.
