Runway's End Outdoor Centre

Our stay was absolutely perfect. From our surprise early arrival Chris was kind, courteous, fun and informative. He and Jacob were then both exceptional during the archery and climbing session, maintaining safety to a high standard whilst being encouraging, patient and entertaining, with both the adults and kids. I was particularly appreciative of their attitude and understanding with my niece and nephew, and I noted that whenever my attention had to be drawn to one of them, Chris or Jacob were keeping an eye on and supporting the other (Thank you again!).

The site itself is absolutely lovely. The communal areas were clean, and, in fact, we saw them being deep cleaned the next day by Chris and 'Hagrid' who was also lovely to the kids, the luggage trolleys a great idea and I love that you can have fires and bbqs with the supplied safety equipment (fire drums available and tree stumps, I think, were around to elevate small bbqs). The site being fairly small, free of cars and encased by the wire fence (barely visable so doesn't spoil the feel) gave a great level of safety which, as a single adult with two kids, was fantastic and yet it feels like you're in the middle of the woods, surrounded by nature for miles.

Nothing at all

The pods are fantastic. Warm and clean. Excellent value for money.

Camping pods were brilliant for winter camping getaway, underfloor heating. Facilities were clean and tidy, staff were absolutely brilliant and professional, site was secure with key pad entry for guests, could walk on any direction and be in the woods or on the canal. Restricted activities but still had some really good half day ones to challenge kids and adults.

Nothing

The cosiness of the pod , safe environment and all the staff we met were welcoming and friendly couldn’t fault them , definitely will return.

Nothing couldn’t have found any fault.

Great site, great staff. Always recommend. There were, however, some inconsiderate campers how made so much noise with loud speaker. Wish there were some one who could control the site.

Excellent facilitys, clean and safe, and spacious.
Staff on duty were amazing! kind, courteous and extremley helpfull.not mentioning knowlageable and well clued in about the local wildlife and area.

We went on a particullary wet weekend (2 adults, 2 kids under 5), but this did not dampen the experience at all.
The Pods were warm and cosy, pleanty of space to rest and relax and dry out gear at the same time.

Of course due to Covid precautions many of the activities were closed but we will most definatly be returning in the near future, when hopefully these are back in the full swing. with so much to do on site alone, I will most deffinatly be recommending Runways End to anyone who asks me for campsites or short activity weekend breaks.

No Wi-fi, and phone receeption can be low at times, but i honestly see this as a plus in this day and age!

n.b Dont be like us and forget a sheet for under bed (we were in sleeping bags, but would have been an additional comfort bonus)

Welcoming staff, perfect equipment everywhere, just perfect.

-

Everything! The service and safety measure were great, the staff were incredibly helpful and even helped with location for things to do, see and places to eat! Spacious pitches and great facilities. We didn’t want to leave! (And were coming back with friends and family in 3 weeks!)

Nothing at all!

Stunning

Facilities were good and camping pitch was large, also a nice and secure site.

Lack of Covid-19 precautions. Didn't like the fact it says campfires are allowed but have to have it in a barrel 4ft off the ground, so you don't get much warmth.
Social distancing and rule of 6 was not adhered to nor was it enforced. Children and adults seemed ignorant to the fact there is a pandemic on. Also was told disinfect the showers after use. No cleaning materials provided...
