A aimé : It was £25

N'a pas aimé: You get what you pay for. Toilet facilities were clean. No problems there. Overall a very run down sight. Everything round about looked like it needed a good clean up. Eg. Children’s play area

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for leaving a review. Firstly, you are right about the price, you do get what you pay for. We are a family orientated site and some of our best feedback comes through that we have a lot of children’s play equipment on site as children are allowed to be children here. Unfortunately they do not always clear up after themselves and we get bikes and toys back to where they belong. Not sure what you mean by the stating “it needed a good clean up”.
As for being a very run down site, we have spent many hours maintaining this site and also improving the facilities. We are continually changing, replacing and improving everything that it needs. There are always ongoing projects which we are committed to finishing and this is a continual process. At the end of the day The Beeches Campsite is not for everyone so let’s leave it at that. We do however take great pride in this facility and the majority of feedback is positive.

A aimé : The campsite was lovely and quaint. The play ground and the bikes were really good for the kids. Shower and toilets kept clean and was very welcomed by the staff.

N'a pas aimé: The quiet time curfew.
Been asked to keep noise down in middle of day.

N'a pas aimé: Nothing really, bit of noise from the road but it says this in the advert so no surprise.

A aimé : This was my first trip here with a triple purpose, to tow the caravan a significant distance for the first time, to visit friends in an area we used to live and to work.

On arrival, probably by coincidence Dawn, one of the site managers was at the gate to welcome me and let me through to my choice of grass pitches. Fortunately this was easy access so I didn't have to show off my meagre caravan reversing skills. Dawn then explained the facilities, I got set up then went off to get some shopping in a few miles away in Sleaford which has all the general facilites and shopping you might expect from a relatively small town.

Having only recently opened for the season there were still a couple of outstanding jobs to do, as explained by Dawn's partner, Lee (hope I've remembered your name correctly). Throughout my stay Dawn and Lee were always helpfull with local info or just for a bit of a chat.

The Beeches is ideally placed to access the Viking Way, a long distance path, which I sampled on a couple of evenings. Also I'd brought my bike along so managed to take in some of the lanes and hills in the general area between Sleaford, Grantham and Newark.

There's also the Aviation Heritage Centre, just a couple of miles away at the opposite end of RAF Cranwell AIrfield, not visited this time but on my list for the next visit.

Not a dislike but be aware that the A17 is close by and if you're a light sleeper, the random clumps of traffic in the early hours may need masking by the use of ear plugs and/or leaving music playing low thorugh the night, my solution.

Already booked my next stay.

A aimé : Warm friendly welcome. Facilities clean and functional. Had the place to ourselves!

N'a pas aimé: Unfortunately we had not realised just how close the site is to the main road. It was noisy to sleep esp as we were in pop-top so essentially under canvas.
