Watercress Lodges Campsite

Ik was blij met: Great to have Ropley station close by to watch the steam trains. Lovely relaxed vibe at the campsite. The washing facilities & toilets are clean and modern.

Ik was blij met: Great pitches and friendly site.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Pitch Up specifies 'Campfires allowed', however upon arrival we were told this is not the case.

Ik was blij met: It was perfect having the bell tent set up for arrival. Spacious for 2 adults and 3 kids. We had 5 airbeds and fitted well at night and we stacked one up in the day to give us half the tent back. Facilities close to the bell tents so ideal with young ones. Good size toilet and shower cubicles to share with young ones too.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Although the camp road going through is very quiet, the bell tents are quite close to it down a steep bank, which you have to be wary of with smaller ones. Parking next to your tent is not an option, but you can be close enough. The campsite wasn’t busy so plenty of parking, but may be tricky if very busy.

Ik was blij met: It was so quiet... had the place to ourselves pretty much and the steam trains chugging up and down was novel and smelt amazing. Toilets and showers were very good and the railway shop and petrol station close meant you could get any food drinks easliy. South facing aspect meant solar charger worked perfectly as no hook up and could park very close to tents due to where we pitched which we thought might have been a problem. Even a play park for the kids at the railway... and just so happened that the local reptile group were visiting at the station so our daughters 'cuddled' several snakes over the weekend... Aylresford is beatiful with a lovely riverside walk with ducks swans fish etc. and plenty of traditional shops, butchers, bakers, hardware etc.. a rare thing nowadays.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Nothing... a lovely place to stay.

Ik was blij met: Very nice little camp site next to the Steam Trains, facilities clean and well maintained.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Lights tripped in the bathrooms on the Saturday, the staff were good and offered us head torches and electrician was out following day so not going to mark them down for that.
