Bardwell Manor Equestrian Centre

Gostou We found the campsite easy to get to with no tight lanes to go down. You turn off the main road and go along a long track which is very bumpy with speed bumps for added measure. We left a lot slower than when we came in. Lesson learned 😬

We were met by Sharon with a very friendly welcoming and showed us to our pitch (No 3). The site is quite compact and if full would be rather cosy. The site is a very peaceful and tranquil site with the benefit of being surrounded by wildlife and loads of horses, which we said hello to everyday plus the Chinese brown geese that just roam freely. Very clean with bins for recycling and general rubbish. There is no Elsan point or grey water waste point.

There is his and hers toilets a little walk away from the campsite where there is also a room with a shower which also has a washing machine and tumble dryer in, then theres another room with another shower in and a sink for washing up with nice and hot water. It is basic but it is a working equestrian centre where they also have access to but was clean and adequate. There was always toilet rolls and hand-wash in the toilets and washing up liquid in by washing up sink.
We managed to book a riding lesson in advance which Sharon took and baring in mind I'd never been on a horse before made me feel very comfortable and enjoyed the whole experience thoroughly.
The WiFi was down when we were there but we was still able to get a 4g signal when needed.
It's a lovely campsite to relax and unwind and forget about daily life while watching nature at its best and watching glorious sunsets and suited our needs perfectly

Gostou A nice small and peaceful campsite, being a horse woman it was lovely to see all the horses in their paddocks and stables

Não gostou The shower and toilet facilities were basic. But because they were in the stable area they were also used by staff and people who had their horses at the yard so they weren’t always clean and tidy. So it would have been nicer if these were separate

Gostou Small, quiet part of the site surrounded by paddocks with horses. Friendly greeting on arrival. Lovely flat area with mown grass.
Clean facilities with hot shower, washing up sink, toilets and washing machine (we didn't use). Only a few pitches in use so kids could have space to play.
Lovely to fall asleep to the horses and owls. Don't expect a playground or anything for kids to do, instead bring card games and enjoy.

Não gostou Not a dislike, but we didn't think to ask in advance about opportunities for the kids to ride and they didn't have space.

Gostou Its a great tiny 9 pitched campsite right in the middle of all the horse fields. Great Sunset in the evening and you always have the company of the horses. The people who run the stables are chatty and helpful, with useful local tips. I beleive you can also ride if you want to. Locally there are a few little villages which have shops , take away food and quite a few local pubs around. Im sure you could walk to them, but the road it quite fast with no paths, so probably best to drive! Toilets and showers are very simple, and could do with being a little cleaner, not the actual toilets more the little buildings they are in. The showers were hot.
