Catthorpe Towers Camping

Polubione Perfect for a quick stop off. Just off the M1. Plenty of room and you can pick your own pitch. Not many facilities but there are toilets.

Polubione The village is very nice and the pub meals were fantastic

Niepolubione I believe its just started being used as a campsite but needs someone that knows what they are doing to organise it. There was no Elsan point to empty the toilet that is shocking its a basic need for motorhome and caravans. The toilet was clean but the showers were shocking we never used them. I asked it the water taps along the back of the van were drinking water and was told i would be better off using the fresh water unit that they use in office's as she believes its fresh but not sure. This has so much potential but lacking so much. The area we parked on need flatting and some organisation.

Polubione Massive site in nice surroundings
Very peaceful and dark
Clean toilet area close to the pitch
Dishwashing sink with very hot water close to the pitches

Niepolubione There is only currently one electricity box for about 5 hook ups so potentially vehicles could end up very close to each other depending on length of your own cable. We were luckily only one of two vans using the hook up so we could park far enough away to give each other privacy.

Polubione Not many people due to starting out
Farm shop within about 5 minutes drive (not opposite this campsite)
A freezer was available too put my ice packs
My son enjoyed visiting the ponies in the field

Niepolubione A long walk to facilities
Washing up station was outside and difficult to get consistent hot water
Contact via telephone when arrived as it was not clear. A telephone message would help.
Busy motorways nearby so was very noisy at all times and effected our sleep.
We paid extra for showers but I was not able to leave my son due to distance and it was too far for him to go on his own (but within area). Therefore this was a waste of money.
Clearer signage would help as met by foreign signs (due to being part of Latvian trust) which was confusing
Due to lack of people, was quite isolating which at times was disconcerting.
The field was quite uneven and so difficult to find an even place to camp. We could have gone to the bottom of the field but this would have been a very long walk for toilets etc.

Od administratora: Hi!

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review!

I just wanted to clear up a couple of quick things to help out future guests:

Showers: We do have shower facilities available! They aren't located right in the field itself, but they're just around the corner. We send all the details, including links and directions, straight to your email.

Check-in: There’s no need to call us when you arrive, as all the info you need is in that same confirmation email. That said, we're always around and happy to help direct you if you ever get stuck!

Thanks again for staying with us, and we hope to see you again soon!

Polubione Spacious and very tidy. Loved the whole stay.

Polubione Very quiet, was the only camping there other than the owners

Niepolubione Very hilly so not great for camping, unless you like sleeping wonky

Polubione friendly people. Good pub in the village.

Niepolubione There was a lot of noise from a wedding at the nearby manor. And limited washing facilities (no showers or washing up area)

Od administratora: Hi, Emma!

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We’re so glad you enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and got to experience our great local village pub!

We are really sorry to hear that noise from the nearby manor’s wedding disrupted your stay. We completely understand how frustrating unwanted noise can be when you’re looking to unwind and we will try to ensure in the future if any events are happening outdoors near the Manor House, not to take any bookings for the campsite.

Regarding our facilities, we just wanted to clarify for future readers that we do have a dedicated washing-up area available on-site for all guests.
Additionally, while showers aren't included as standard to keep base rates lower, private shower slots can be easily added on during the booking process. We're sorry if this wasn't clear in the description of our campsite!

Thank you again for your feedback, as it helps us make sure information is as clear as possible for everyone. Safe travels on your next camping trip!

Best regards,
Ance

Polubione A huge eerie space and a lovely manor

Niepolubione It is not a campsite really. Though it has a lot of potential to become that.
There are toilets, but for just being a big field the price of £30 with electricity is about double of what you would expect to pay.

Od administratora: Hi,

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re so glad you enjoyed the lovely setting of the nearby manor!

As we only opened our campsite a few weeks ago, we are currently trialing our setup to learn exactly what our guests need and what additions will help make this a truly great place to stay. We really appreciate your comment about the site having potential—everything is very much a work in progress, and feedback like yours is super helpful as we grow!

To keep the atmosphere spacious and uncrowded, we offer a £25 base pitch (which includes toilet facilities, drinking water, and washing-up areas) with an optional £5 for electric hook-up. We benchmarked this against regional standards for electric pitches, but we completely understand that every camper looks for different amenities.

Thank you again for being one of our very first guests and for helping us shape the future of our site. We wish you all the best on your travels!

Warm regards,
Ance
