Kings Orchard Marina

Понравилось Large pitches, nice and flat full gravel area
Segregation by bushes and a grass boarder. Facilities on pitch perfect.
Pub 15min walk along canal towpath, lovely food booking required for weekends.
Welfare facilities clean, with plentiful hot water.

Не понравилось Approach onto site not nice, bins overflowing with rubbish, waste alcoves over flowing with bottles and cans. Maintenance yard littered with rubbish and old wooden storage sheds. Payment of £20 for a key deposit, refundable) to enable use of facilities and to gain access onto towpath.
All grass areas need cutting, grass at least 6’’ long and all bushes require trimming.
No general stores on site or within walking distance. Torch required to walk on site at night.

Понравилось We had a really lovely stay here. It’s a small, friendly campsite with good-sized, level hardstandings, which made setting up nice and easy. Each pitch has its own hook-up and water, which is always a big plus for us.

The chemical disposal points are well set up and easy to use, and the toilets and showers (shared with the marina) were clean and perfectly decent.

One of our favourite things was having a wander around the boats and along the canal towpath, it’s a really peaceful spot. We also enjoyed a trip to The Plough, which is about a 20-minute walk or a quick drive, and well worth it for a nice local pub meal.

It’s in a great location too, with easy access to Lichfield, Fradley Junction and other nearby places to explore.

All in all, we really enjoyed our stay, it’s a well-run, welcoming site and we’d happily come back.

Не понравилось We did see some of the negative comments before arriving, but honestly, none of them really reflected our experience, so we didn’t let them affect our stay.

The only small thing we’d agree with is the bin situation. There don’t seem to be quite enough of them, or they’re not emptied as often as they could be. When they get a bit too full, especially if it’s windy, it can make parts of the site look a little untidy.

That said, it was only a minor issue for us and didn’t take away from what was otherwise a really enjoyable stay.

Понравилось Decent size pitches. Site was quiet and felt safe

Не понравилось Limited showers that need updating, site area felt unkept and the member of staff who we had contact with couldn’t have been less personable and interested in what us if she tried

Понравилось Beautiful location. Lovely views and wildlife. Nice walks with a pub a short distance away. Short drive into Lichfield which is well worth a visit. Very competitive lpg prices for swapping gas bottles. Friendly staff.

Не понравилось Only one fresh water point we could find which was very close to another pitch and had a non standard connector. No drive over grey waste drain or specific grey waste point. Some dodgy roads and difficult roadworks to work through as the A38 is blocked for crash barrier work and a section of HS2 is being constructed nearby (though hardly any noise).

Понравилось Nice spot close to the marina with some hedging in between most pitches. Toilets and showers are basic but well looked after . Friendly helpful staff .

Не понравилось Travellers had got into the site and were constantly driving up and down at speed past the pitches to the toilets etc .

Понравилось Site itself was peaceful
Toilet block was nice and warm with plenty of hot water
The road into the site has been repaired and is now quite good a vast improvement on previous road
Been here a few times and will continue to return

Не понравилось Works on the A38 has resulted in all traffic in the area using the road past the site and is an absolute nightmare trying to get to site towing a caravan
Overnight works nearby going on all night with heavy machinery
Not the site’s fault for this

Понравилось Nice large pitches. The electrics are linked to the water supply so it’s very convenient.
The shop was convenient and the facilities were clean and accessible with a great pub within walking distance along the tow path (which the loo key also unlocked)

Не понравилось The office insisted that I get a key for the loos and showers with a £20 deposit which went off my card immediately. I’m still waiting for it to go back on my card almost a week later.

There were some travellers who were staying at the same time as us on the site and the police were called (they may have overstayed I didn’t enquire) Lots of shouting and threats and nothing done.

We booked the site in January and asked to camp with another family. This was sadly impossible apparently even though the booking was months in advance.

The WiFi was incredibly spotty even though they use this as a selling point (and one of the reasons I booked this site).

We decided to up sticks and go before our time was up as we weren’t particularly enjoying the atmosphere on site after one family had a stand up yelling and screaming argument at each other on the Friday morning.

Понравилось Second time here in recent weeks- took a friend along this time with his motor home.
Nice clean hot shower. Good location for popping into the lovely city of Lichfield.
Will definitely visit again.
Great to see the access road is being improved and repaired( I know it’s not their responsibility)

Не понравилось Nothing really.
