Colchester Country Park

Ik was blij met: A lovely friendly welcome. Great explanation of where everything was. Easy to set up and get sorted. Had an absolutely lovely time with plenty of space to spread out and relax.

Van de manager: Thank you for your kind review Jackie:) we are happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back.

Ik was blij met: Used as overnight stop on return trip to UK from Netherlands on Harwich ferry. Friendly warden who let a group of us who all came off same ferry in after reception hours (pre-warned). Slightly 'old fashioned' toilet block, but clean and perfectly usable. Good site as travel stop or to explore Cochester and the local area.

Ik was blij met: We stayed one night to practice setting up our new caravan and packing away. Really enjoyed our stay; lovely clean facilities, wide pitch, easy access to A12, felt secure to have key fob access

Ik was niet zo blij met: Some road noise due to close proximity of A12 but not the fault of the site, we got used to it, it is helpful to be so close to it as newbie caravan towers!

Van de manager: Thank you for your kind review Rebecca :) we are happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back.

Ik was blij met: Nice, well kept site. People around considerate for noise etc. Secure and gated. Can walk into centre.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Asked for a quiet pitch but I honestly don’t think you can get one. The a12 runs along the rear and traffic is accelerating as it’s just off the junction. Lots of Lewis Hamilton wannabes! The shower and toilet facilities are old and dated.

Van de manager: Thank you for your review :)

Ik was blij met: It felt very safe. As a single mother camping with an SEN child I was overjoyed with our first stay here. We haven’t camped just us before and it was brilliant! The loos and showers etc were impeccably clean and really well taken care of. The site is lovely and peaceful with a small play park for the littles! The on-site staff were so friendly and kind. Logged entry into and out of the park meant there was an additional level of safety. It was lovely and quiet and peaceful, pitches were far enough away to not disturb each other. No wifi (that I was aware of) but that was one of the things I really liked! Sitting outside at 7pm and just colouring and watching for wildlife was amazing! I can not recommend it highly enough!

Ik was niet zo blij met: Nothing!

Ik was blij met: Great site, lovely friendly welcome on arrival. Plenty of space around the pitch. Friendly goodbye on departure. Powerful showers. Enjoyed it and would consider returning.

Ik was niet zo blij met: A little noise from the main road. Showers could do with some extra space to hang/store your clothes whilst showering.

Van de manager: Thank you William for your pictures and your lovely review :) We look forward to welcoming you back.

Ik was blij met: The facilities were fantastic, kept clean at all times. A number of toilet and washing blocks to service all guests and we were never left waiting for a shower. There was a small park directly behind us which kept the little ones entertained and entertainment was put on for the weekend with games for the kids and a singer later on for the adults who also through in a bit of karaoke for anyone that was brave enough The staff were so incredibly friendly throughout and couldn’t do enough for you. The pitches were completely flat (hard standing) and had plenty of space for your awning and car with grass areas in between guests. Interns of location it was really close to pubs, shops etc and was easily walkable in about 10/15 mins. Clacton and Walton were both about 30/40 mins away so we had some lovely trips to the beaches. Walton in particular was a favourite, a little quieter as dog friendly but it was a really lovely town. The tide was in early however which some got caught out with, i think it was about 2.30 and there were people having to frantically gather there throngs together but was worth an earlier get up and there was plenty to do in the town centre nice high tide was in effect. Clacton was a traditional seaside resort with amusements, shops and eateries galore. The pier was great for keeping us all entertained and the rides were quite reasonable in terms of cost. All in all a really lovely place to visit

Ik was niet zo blij met: The only thing that lets the place down is that it’s right next to the slip road of the motorway so was extremely noisy. I hadn’t read this before as it would have definitely been a factor for our stay. You do tune out a little bit but even in a caravan it felt the trucks were really close. Ear plugs are a must for you to get a decent nights sleep. Such a shame as other than that it was such a nice site and ticked all of our boxes at a reasonable cost per night.

Van de manager: Thank you for your kind review Simon:) we are happy you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back.

Ik was blij met: Good washing / cleaning facilities. Friendly staff. There is a nice walk via footpath in to Colchester town and there are other surrounding walks, which are nice

Ik was niet zo blij met: Surrounded by a couple of very busy roads. Distance from pitch to electric hookup is quite far but it does say that on the website to be fair. Pitches are quite close together
