Ashurst Caravan and Camping Site

Kedvelték I liked the campsite very much & the facilities in the shower & toilet building are excellent and kept very clean. I liked the privacy cubicles for shaving. The dish washing room was clean too until the robins started flying in and out, leaving a mess on the floor. There was a laundry room too although I didn’t use it. There were other facilities too for instance fresh water taps and a rubbish area which was clean. There was a small area designated for tents near the shower building which I liked, but I didn’t pitch there because of the piles of horse manure.

Nem kedvelték I use a tent so better signage really for where I can or can’t pitch my tent. I had read the reviews about the noise from the railway line and then I pitched my tent right next to it, with just a few trees and a hedge in between. If I had been warned when I first arrived I would have move to the far side of the camp site.

Kedvelték The site looked great, but we got turned around

Nem kedvelték We came in a tesla ( which has camp mode for good air circulation etc..) and got turned away upon arrival at 8pm because we didnt have a tent, and were not allowed to sleep in our tesla (we have a full set up to have the back seats down and a comfy mattress so didnt need a tent). They argued the car was not made to sleep in but to drive in, and that we couldnt stand up in the car etc.. which is in the terms and conditions... It is our fault for not reading the fine detail of the terms and conditions, but to us we were a camp vehicle ( as it has a camp mode set up by Tesla themselves....

It is a very silly rule, as there is no danger to others to ourselves ( no exaust fumes etc..) so we lost the full cost and had to find an emmergency place to sleep ( which we only found open was airbNb -> this cost us £400 for an emmergency place to sleep). We were fuming.

Do not assume, if it is a tesla that they will let you in..They mean it when they say NO CAR CAMPING

Kedvelték Lots of space to pitch. Good facilities kept clean, powerful showers (push button, bit annoying) plenty of hot water. Small shop for essentials.

Nem kedvelték Our own fault but we pitched right next to the railway line, maybe the other side of the park would have been a bit quieter. Other than that nothing to dislike.

Toilets block old but clean on arrival.

Nem kedvelték A group of over 50 people arrived and take over the toilet and shower/ washing up block, leaving it dirty and with wet clothes everywhere it was very hard to use at any time.no staff informed or supervising
Bins were moved meaning they left there rubbish about.

Kedvelték Open camping space and wooded areas to choose from. Easy, relaxed feel and facilities clean and maintained. Wonderful to be able to just walk straight into the forest.

Nem kedvelték Rather austere greeting and campsite briefing listing all the things that aren’t allowed. Perfectly sensible list explained in a such a dower tone that I wondered where I had come.

young families. Ponies and cows walking wild through the site. Lots of places to explore with the kids. I wi-fi but good mobile coverage.
