Walesby Forest

Понравилось The closeness to the amenities. Daughter enjoyed the activities. Blue Peter badge holder. I've knocked the facilities and activities down this time as I think more options could be explored when young children are on site and cleanliness of toilets and showers.

All staff on site very helpful and courteous.
Bar very clean and good choice of food and drink options.

The pool attendant that was organising people in and out of the pool on Saturday did a fabulous job.

Location lots of places to go from site. Rufford, Clumber, Clipstone. Sherwood Observatory. Newark castle and Civil war museum.

Take out menu left on tables in the bar at night, although we didn't choose this option nice to have this perhaps this should be given at the reception at check in.

Не понравилось Toilets and shower areas need regularly cleaning hourly!!

No BBQs or campfires on this weekend however we took a gas fire and fake flickering fire to give the same camping experience temperature dropped quite significantly. In this case make more things available on display like your blankets, lights a gas fire option perhaps? Or even the nice wooden lanterns you have to paint for kids. Make features of what you have got available.


Think the large white tent on the camping side A could be used for cooler nights when camp fires can't be used perhaps just a small seating area quiet somewhere away from the karaoke to relax.

Shop could stock a lot more items i came one year when you had some lovely necklaces and bracelets. I gave my daughter as tan extra stocking filler for xmas.

No jigsaws. No reading books other than the history on Walesby and only colouring books for children. What about nature books, sticker books word searches or crossword books.

Nice to see some inflatables in the shop for the pool. We took our own a rubber ring donut but nice to see other options available perhaps advertised this at the pool entrance as a young boy was upset it was too deep so my daughter let him have our rubber ring.


Unfortunately one family not us and I hope they raise this they were not happy on the Sunday they had a boy and girl aged 5 and only two activities open for them to do Cave Maze and Low ropes perhaps they should be free if only two things open. The parents then had to purchase two archery sets in the shop.

Понравилось Friendly helpful staff, didn’t realise we had booked non electric and Katherine made it very easy for us to move and made us feel very comfortable. Beautiful big grounds with lots to see when walking. Loved staying in field E as felt we were away from the hustle and bustle. Very quiet at night, felt secure as saw security doing their rounds.

Не понравилось The lack of toilet facilities, so apart from the fact they were so far away there wasn’t enough to cater for the amount of people. One group had electric motor bikes and they just kept riding them all around the fields which was very annoying, so we were surprised that was allowed. The food is advertised as open until 19:00 but closes at 18:30 so couldn’t get any at 18:40 when we went which niggled us as just acting on the information given.

Понравилось The price and the location as very near the A1

Не понравилось When I arrived at around 4.30pm I was given a map of where my pitch was.
I had booked a wild camping pitch as It was just an overnight stay. The map was not clear at all and I drove round for 30 minutes trying to find a sign relevant to my booking. I asked several people if they knew where the wild camping was and they just said it was not where they were as they had electric hook up. I then asked an employee and he pointed to a road and said the toilets were half way down the hill. I drove down the road he pointed to and came back to the main entrance. I gave up in the end and stopped where there was some trees away from anyone else, got to sleep early and left by 6am. I would say things would have been a lot easier if there was a sign say Wild Camping with an arrow. The toilets were not that great either.

Понравилось Activity programme for children was fab, staff were mostly very friendly and helpful. Huge site with loads to do and lots to explore. Large pitch.

Не понравилось Not much for under 5s, activity bands were £20 a day, with more than one child this could get quite expensive. Especially with different activities being on different days, you can't do them all in one day. Maybe a family discount or discount on multiple days would help. The toilet/shower block on our field was disgusting, other blocks weren't as bad. Other guests being loud and motorbikes roaring around the site at 11.30pm, contacted the site and nothing was done.

Понравилось Great site plenty of space to pitch a family size tent without being crowded. Some good amenities but some a little tired and dated. Great for fire pits and bbq. Value for money for camping and activities.

Не понравилось Could do with better toilet facilities in some areas of the site.

Понравилось We chose a wild pitch it was perfect! I loved that you were about to choose where you wanted to go so you could choose to space out from other campers if you wanted to.

The activities on offer were so good, we will definitely be back.

Не понравилось No lights in the toilet block which made it more difficult at night. But just took torches/phone flashlights and it was all good.

Не понравилось Toilets and showers not clean
Toilets too far away from “E” which meant everyone was wild wee’ing in the bushes
