Gostou Plenty of showers which were kept clean
Large pitch sizes
Great location
Friendly staff

Não gostou The noise at night could be monitored a bit better with someone reminding people that after 10pm the noise should be minimum as it was still quite loud late

Gostou Laid back atmosphere. No one measuring plots, complaining about noise at 9pm and harassing us to leave by 10am.
Lesley very welcoming. Good facilities.

Gostou The location is lovely with the river and pubs.

Não gostou The toilets and shower blocks weren't cleaned while we were there. Toilet roll ran out, then was changed around midday but still didn't clean the showers. There were dead flies and midges on the sinks. Washing up facilities weren't clean. There are so many apple trees and because of the fallen apples that are rotting there were so many ants, they were crawling over our table, dog bowls and everywhere. I know that you can't get rid of ants but if a lot of the apples were cleared this may help. We only lasted the one night as couldn't relax and enjoy it. The site has so much potential to be a lot more welcoming. Nobody comes and greets you when you arrive or shows you where the facilities are, it was just a white board with your name on and pitch number. Such a shame was looking forward to a relaxing weekend but lost money instead.

Do gestor: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, though we are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations.
To clarify a few points raised: Gunthorpe Camping operates on a convenient self-check-in basis, clearly outlined prior to arrival, with welcome whiteboards directing guests to their pitches and facilities. As an established site set within a traditional, natural orchard environment, insect activity can occasionally occur naturally outdoors. Our facilities are regularly maintained and serviced throughout the day, particularly during periods when the site is running at full capacity over busy weekends.
We appreciate your kind words regarding our lovely location near the river and local pubs, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.

Gostou I love this site. It’s surrounded by great pubs and restaurants all within a few feet of the main entrance. The river walks are all opposite and I would recommend the walk to Burton Joyce along the river and a visit to the Nelson pub with its lovely outdoor space and food. Train stations close by if you want to venture into Nottingham and Newark is a short drive away. The owners give you all the info you need upfront and then you’re pretty much left alone which we approve of.

Não gostou Not really a dislike but a bit of a deep clean in the male showers and toilets wouldn't go amiss, and possibly some signs to tell other campers to clean their own mess up.

Gostou Excellent location, close to riverside walks. Good for dog walking, cycling and fishing. Close to several good pubs and cafes.
Spacious pitches with nice countryside views.
I liked the self check-in

Não gostou Overflowing bins on arrival which only got worse through the week. Although there are recycling bins, they are not labelled, and because the other bins are overflowing, everything got used for general rubbish.
Toilets and showers were dirty. They were not cleaned at all during our stay. If you lift the non-slip mat in the shower it is black and slimy underneath.
The poor hygiene at the site is the reason for the low score. And it’s such a shame because this could be a really lovely site with a bit of TLC

Do gestor: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we are really happy you enjoyed the location and what it has to offer.
We completely agree with your feedback regarding the bins and showers. Due to a recent road closure for resurfacing, our local bin lorry missed a collection week which impacted on a particularly busy, hot weekend when visitor numbers (due to wedding in the village) and shower usage—peaked, this unfortunately led to the bins overflowing. We have also noted your comments on the shower mats and have since removed them, as we agree they weren't the best choice for holding dirt.

Best wishes
