Woodside Country Park

Polubione Loved our stay at Woodside Country Park. The pitch size was perfect. Fishing Lake was idyllic. My son caught a fish and had a few bites and saw other anglers catch so well stocked. Used the shared fridges which was handy and no items were taken so honest people camping. People respected the site rules on noise so apart from a snorer or a dog parking it was peaceful. The toilets and showers were very clean. The washing up stations were always available with washing up liquid and hot water. The swimming lake looked lovely but the weather wasn't warm enough so didn't swim. The host was very helpful and friendly.

Niepolubione Maybe a bit more organisation in shop with a few more essential items. More availability for sauna in the week. The turning into campsite a bit of a blindspot and car came around quickly when we were walking out so a near miss. As you have to cross the road to get to fishing Lake or reception maybe some road safety signage needed.

Polubione We booked last minute. We had such a lush 2 days with our 3 children. The bonus was swimming in the lake with the fish 🥰 also the clean facilities. The staff were friendly and helpful. It's a lovely family friendly site. Definitely recommend, we will be back next year 🥰

Polubione Our second time at Woodside and again it was fantastic. The setting is beautiful and the accommodation is perfect. Very relaxing and stress free, just what was needed.

Polubione The kids really enjoyed playing in the lake

Niepolubione Toilets weren't very clean and bad smell. Bins overflowing. Lake was much smaller than expected - more like a large pond.

Polubione Staff were really friendly. Beautiful location, clean facilities.

Niepolubione Got a bit busy so had to queue to use toilet and shower facilities. Showers are a bit temperamental, sometimes the water wouldn’t come through halfway through a shower 😂 Next to our location near the toilet block, the house next door were noisy from 7am with kids playing and a dog barking. Woke us up two days in a row.

Polubione The staff are really lovely, the site is well kept and has lots of flattish pitches. The wild swimming lake is a great experience and do welcome in a hot day! My boys loved feeding the huge carp in there too. The fishing lakes are beautiful to wander round and amazing if you like fishing and if there’s a floating sound bath on when you’re there, I can highly recommend.

Niepolubione Small thing - The showers are generally ok - lots of them but the water pressure is very intermittent when others are using them.

Polubione Large camping field with plenty of space between pitches

Niepolubione Toilets a bit smelly at the end of the day but it was hot weather and the staff worked hard keeping them clean

Polubione Nice lakes

Niepolubione Didn't allow campfires and lady was very rude when asking us to put ours out. She stated that signs where everywhere but after walking around the next day I saw one sign very well blended into the entrance about no campfires. This was due to weather, however they made one sign not very visible, nothing mentioned at reception when checking in and they still were selling wood and renting fire pits out at the shop... Left a sour taste after being spoke to like I'm a child unfortunately. For anyone looking at this campsite, consider contacting them first about campfires or any other queries before commiting. Otherwise, facilities are clean and overall scenery is nice. Just wished the ladies attitude when asking me and my partner was a little more polite and if they truly matched the energy she was projecting, they could have done a much better done with signage and making people aware as we wasn't the only tent with a fire that night.

Polubione The campsite isn’t too big but it’s for the better if you don’t like those giant campsites/holiday parks. There’s plenty of space for games, walks or just chilling. The lake is rather small but sufficient for swimming. The facilities are good, showers and toilets are cleaned regularly.

Niepolubione Only two minor things:
- shower & toilet blocks, it’d be good to show from outside whether it’s occupied (I always had a small panic attack whether I locked the door whenever somebody was pulling the door handle from outside)
- it’d be good if the playground had a few more facilities especially for younger children

Polubione Lovely swimming and fishing lakes that are clearly well looked after and maintained and the fishing lake is well stocked, friendly staff, like the individual shower and toilet cubicles.

Niepolubione The campsite is spread out over a few fields and to access the fishing you have to cross a lane, the pressure in the showers is very poor and can be tricky washing long hair after going in the lake. We were unaware that there was a shop so missed seeing this and could have benefited from being given a map at check in.
