Lavender Hall Fishery

Kedvelték: We knew we'd arrive late so called in advance and were quickly given the appropriate number for the staff who'd be on site that evening. We travelled in our micro camper and found that the lane into the site was fine to use despite heavy rain and arriving in the dark. There were potholes, but consider the use of the site and the weather. Damage over time is inevitable and the lane was not water-logged or impassable in any sense. There was no risk at all that we would not reach the site or that we'd damage our vehicle. Maybe I'm just used to it as a Yorkshire lass, but our neighbours in much larger vehicles seemed happy enough, too. The staff could not have been more helpful before and after we arrived. Debbie arranged for us to park in a nearby well-lit pitch as it was late. The pitch was large and the site is peaceful - we are tiny but the pitches easily accommodate RVs. We could not pitch our awning as the non-hardstanding part to the side was brambles rather than grass and may have torn the groundsheet. We didn't need the awning so we didn't ask to move, but I have no doubt that staff would have provided us support the next morning had it been necessary. Swiftly prepared, tasty and affordable food available at the clean, warm cafe. There are toilets in the cafe which are accessible during 'office hours'. Well-stocked tackle shop with good signage to indicate where to get your fishing papers. As you'll see in the details, there are no shower/toilet blocks, but it's easy to wash etc and dispose of waste water not far from the camper standing. Debbie went to the trouble to get her wellies and high beam headtorch on to help us navigate the dark when we arrived and show us clearly before we settled for the night. We'd definitely return, in fact we plan to later this year.

Nem kedvelték: Nearby construction of HS2. This didn't interfere with our enjoyment of the site, but lights can be seen on the cranes being used and works may be off-putting to others.

Kedvelték: Sehr freundliche Platzbetreiber. Trotz Bahnlinie auf der einen Seite und einer Großbaustelle (tagsüber) auf der anderen Seite als einfacher Übernachtungsplatz ok. Wir haben einen Platz in der Nähe des NEC zum Besuch von Crufts gebraucht, dafür ok. Zufahrt ziemlich holperig, direkt hinter der Brücke, vor der Werkstatt rechts in den Feldweg einbiegen.

Kedvelték: Nothing

Nem kedvelték: Couldn’t drive to the site due to excessively poor road with mud and potholes. Turned around half way. The approach is a combination of a scrapyard and bomb site.
