Watercress Lodges Campsite

Gostou I liked that we were free to choose where we pitch and that there were no vehicles on the camping fields. It was nice to be right next to Ropley station and the watercress line with its heritage steam and diesel locomotives and rolling stock. The site itself is nicely kept and we found both the wash up, the wc’s and showers to be perfectly adequate. There are plenty of water standpipes as well as bins for recycling and waste. There are also some brick built barbecue’s but we didn’t try these as we had our own off the ground BBQ.

Não gostou The nearby BoomTown Festival was on the weekend we visited and we were kept awake by rave music till about 4 am on the Friday night, we didn’t hear it on the Saturday night but that may be due to the copious amount of snore juice consumed in an attempt to force some sleep 💤

Gostou Everything! Lovely flat pitches, great shower & loo block, the freezer and barbeques are a lovely bonus. Good value for what's provided. Quiet at night, great communication from the owner.
We were there when the Watercress line was open so we used the cafes/ice cream van at the railway station

Não gostou Not a problem for us, but be aware that you need to move your equipment up steps/a slope when you set up/take down

Gostou Clean and fairly small site.
Next to train station where they had a day out with Thomas.
Decent toilet facilities.

Não gostou Showers were freezing on our first day, although addressed after raising awareness.
I complained about awful noise from campers next to us, swearing, drinking and playing music until early hours of the morning. Unfortunately, nothing was done until the following day when we left anyway. Completely ruined our final night and went home with very tired and grumpy children, who’d heard all manner of expletives throughout the night.

Gostou Lovely flat pitches with very clean facilities. Perfect place to take the children as they can watch the trains go by.

Gostou Great little site.
Hot showers , great facilities.
They have a shared freezer which i thought was excellent.
10 minute walk to the bus stop which is great.
We had a bell tent which was perfect, tonnes of space for 2 adults and 2 kids.

Would definitely come back.

Gostou Ease of arrival. Good space for pitching a small tent with room to play in front for kids. Excellent bonus of having the steam trains going past. Good playground for kids.
