Church Stretton Camp and Fish (Oaklands)

Ik was blij met Good nearly wild campsite.Plenty of woodland, swimming lake, and two fishing ponds. Toilets were clean

Ik was niet blij met The site looks like it needs a bit of love, keep eye on kids if they go in the woodland bit old bridges are falling apart and have nails sticking out

Ik was blij met The distance from home

Ik was niet blij met Wasn't quiet and tranquil, screaming kids and adults till late and music blasting till early hours

Says no fires, yet drunk people were having bbqs...what is the difference!? Embers come off bbqs too

Rubbish all along woodland paths and around lakes

Van de manager: No-one is blasting music till the early hours. (I check noise levels at 10pm/11pm and normally 12pm to ensure this doesn’t happen. Over the 4 nights you were here, neither you or anyone else raised this with me (otherwise I could have spoke to the people responsible)

BBQ’s are allowed still, everyone is informed to keep them off the ground, have water on stand by, and to not empty the ashes out (there’s a big difference between a bbq and a roaring camp fire) - and I’m not really sure why you needed to point out the people having a bbq had had an alcoholic drink. Lots of people drink on holiday, it’s quite normal.

I litter pick ALL the time, so there may have been some around but I doubt it was as bad as you make it sound.

I have loads of customers (families, couples, singles, groups) that come here multiple times a year. I doubt they would do so if the place was as bad as you seem to have made it out to be.

Ik was blij met Forest section was lovely and private very peaceful site

Ik was blij met Pitch position and view

Ik was niet blij met very poor! facilities virtually non existent! god knows how many people sharing one toilet which was located in a shed, not very nice at all.
Such a shame as it had the potential to be a really stunning site. host was friendly & welcoming on arrival & during stay.

Van de manager: 2 out of 10 is an insult, and is polar opposite to most of our wonderful reviews. We are a nearly wild/basic campsite, charging on average £10 per adult for basically 24 hours pleasure, offering a swimming lake free of charge, beautiful views, woodland areas to walk around, huge meadow to play games, playground, onsite shop with ice creams for a quid, and mostly wonderful, respectful campers to interact with if you wish.

We are set over 38 acres, and because we are reasonably cheap and have such a large site (please note, we never FILL the site, we close bookings after a certain amount to ensure everyone isn’t on top of each other, the facilities don’t get completely hammered and everyone enjoys the site regardless of when you come - so our goal isn’t to make as much money as possible) we have many basic, functional but clean toilets dotted around the site so you don’t have to walk too far (8 actual proper flushable toilets in total).

Given you were here 3 days, I would have hoped you’d have found the “nicer” toilets located at reception (remember we put basic optional functional clean toilets around the site for campers convenience), and had you approached us during your stay, stating how unhappy you were we would have more than happily refunded your money and you could go somewhere else.

We understand that our site isn’t for everyone, and we accept that, and if you come here, decide it’s not for you, we will happily refund you, as we don’t want you to be unhappy, and we’d rather not have unhappy people here. But you raised no complaints throughout your 3 nights and 2 out of 10 is insulting.

Genuinely sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay (as owners we GENUINELY want people to enjoy themselves and enjoy the site as much as we and many others do, and will do all that we can to ensure that happens) But I also can’t do a lot after you’ve left, without saying anything, and then leaving a 2 star review. Sorry.

Ik was blij met The staff and all the people there were really lovely and really welcoming. Had the best time there and enjoyed the lakes. Really close to a local town and the facilities there were great. Would definitely recommended to others!
