Riverside Camping

Mi è piaciuto Everything! Great basic camp site, lovely countryside location on the river. Facilities are basic but everything you need. Great base for the national bowl which is why we were there. Would stay again if visiting the area.

Mi è piaciuto We were a group of four families with teenagers from London who regularly camp together.

The campsite is spacious and quiet. There were several other groups and individual campers/camper vans but far enough away from each other. We had lots of space to camp together and play rounders, badminton etc.

Note, the onsite food hut is only open for functions. There were no eggs to purchase despite this being advertised on the website.

The two useable portaloos were generally always clean. Bring a torch if you want to use them at night!

There is lots of hot water in the three showers. Two of them are open air with a shower curtain.
On Saturday morning one of the three showers was broken but it was fixed in the afternoon.

Finally, the onsite manager (who lives in a caravan in the camping field) was very friendly and helpful.

Non mi è piaciuto We travelled to Riverside Camping for the river (we brought kayaks etc) but due to the drought the river was stagnant. Even if the river was flowing there are signs that say "no swimming". We could have called and checked the status of this beforehand but didn't.

Unfortunately, the stagnant smell from the river lingered across the campsite which was unpleasant at times.

I would suggest the toilets need to be monitored more frequently for overflowing bins and toilet roll.

Note, we do always bring toilet roll/hand soap when camping as we appreciate they are not always provided.

Non mi è piaciuto Abit of noise from the road but nothing a pair of ear plugs can’t sort out.

Mi è piaciuto Lovely tranquil spot by the river. Facilities although basic were superb. Gas shower was really good. Clean and tidy.

Non mi è piaciuto The smell from the stagnant area of the river Ouse was a little off putting, due to reduced flow from a tree fallen across the river. Not sure who's responsible for that. But might be worth investigating.
