spacious well kept field
good facilities
children's play area
excellent cafe

constant noise from nearby motorway and early morning flights from Birmingham airport

received a car parking fine from the firm who manage the day visitors car parking for the Umberslade estate.

The campsite was spacious without allocated pitches which meant it had a countryside feeling that we enjoyed.
The toilets and showers were clean.
The play area was large and interesting for different ages of children.

The gate to the campsite (and estate), contrary to signage, was left open all night, every night. With the absence of a warden or owners on site, this did leave us feeling rather vulnerable.
Members of the public wandering past frequently, on their way to the play barn and pizza barn. This did reduce the feeling of privacy somewhat.
Multiple dogs off lead, running up to other people's tents and food, running up and scaring children etc. I did broach this with management (via texts and phone since there is no one on site) but nothing was done about it. Booking conditions say that dogs must be kept on leads at all times, otherwise I would not have booked (because one of my children has a dog phobia). Management need to decide on their approach to dogs and advertise accordingly, so that campers know what to expect.

Nice relaxed atmosphere, big open field and very peaceful location with the occasional train going past on an embankment a few hundred meters from the site. Good clean facilities (excellent shower rooms), and a really nice pizza place on site that also sells beer and wine! Good play park for kids too.

Depending on where you pitch there could be some very long walks to the facilities. Only 2 shower rooms which were never busy, but site wasn’t full and if it was it could mean you have to wait.

Nice flat pitch.
Pizza barn, great idea.
Clean facilities.

Facilities were quite a walk from the site, only 2 showers which I imagine could get quite busy at times.

Great stay as usual! Lovely site, great pizzas and clean facilities

Nothing

Facilities were good,
nice to have a pizza barn, coffee shop & farm on site.
Good play area

No signage for the bins,
slight slope on the field for tents,
no obvious reception &
limited number of showers

Exceptional campsite
Amazing facilities and always clean
Perfect for kids! Highly recommend.

Camping are is really nice its a large field with hedge. Rows either side. I would recommend camping next to a hedgerow to shelter from the wind. Shower and toilet facilitieswere in a separate block a little walk from the field but no issues clock up your steps. Showers were good with two showers we were lucky as there was only a few campers anymore and this could have been a problem. I would recommend turning one of the children's changing toilets in to another shower. Coffee shop on site really nice, pizza barn for woodfired pizzas is only open Thurs-sun. Childrens play area. Garage up the road and the Bell LH a. Short walk. Great location really well. Kept grounds. Parking next to pitch as the ground was hard but the car park is about 2 mins walk.

Plumbing was a bit questionable in toilets and showers I would recommend a good service in these areas as there some leaks which weren't cleaned up despite the cleaner going in and out. Toilets hmm dropped a star here cubicles need some work the frames were damaged and they weren't as clean as they could be toilet brushes a really good idea.
