Thames View Camping

Tyckte om Great spot. I liked the mown areas with benches and a fire pit – it gave the plot a natural, relaxed feel. There’s a back gate leading to a good walking route, and amenities were close enough to reach on foot without being intrusive. The site facilities were excellent, including clean loos, a shower, and firewood.

Overall, the easy drive-up access and generous plot made for a very comfortable pitch.

Tyckte inte om Nothing - I will definitely be back!

Tyckte om Everything about it. It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. Quite an interesting and unusual site, with emphasis on being low impact and eco-friendly. The site also has a very laid-back approach, with nobody on site but a very responsive and helpful Vince just a phone call away. It was a really peaceful stay, with good space between pitches. The fire pits are a real bonus, and make all the difference to the experience, with logs being available to purchase (via QR code and payment site). There is a really nice walk along the sea wall, including to the nearby Tilbury Fort which is worth a visit.

Tyckte inte om Being unable to amend a booking date, via Pitchup. Really this should be part of the site functionality. Same with being able to edit a review.
Otherwise the only minor niggle was the shower was a bit too hot for me, personally, albeit adjusting the shower head helped a little.

Tyckte om An jedem Stellplatz sind Feuerstellen, wir haben das Lagerfeuer sehr genossen.

Tyckte inte om Leider hat jemand hinter das Klohäuschen gekackt und unser Hund hat das gefressen. Derjenige hat scheinbar Marihuana geraucht, worauf unser Hund ins Krankenhaus musste!!

Från föreståndaren: Ed: Unfortunately, someone ketted behind the cloakroom and our dog ate it. The one apparently smoked marijuana, whereupon our dog had to go to the hospital !!

This is how it translates to English.
Was your dog on a lead?

If so how did you let it eat anything?

Why was this not reported at the time?

Tyckte om Very spacious pitches spread out around the site so they're not right next to each other. Picnic bench and firepit on the pitch was a nice plus. Plenty of toilets around site so you don't have to walk too far to one.

Tyckte om Showers were clean, good washing up facilities and nice to have a bench and firepit at each pitch. Nice coastal walks and friendly pub 10 minutes down the road

Tyckte inte om Owner responded poorly to large group making noise till after 12.30am despite claims of otherwise. Woken up again at 6.30am by the same group the owners claimed they'd ask to leave .Nobody on site to deal with the issues, only person we saw was bombing around the site on a quad bike half heartidly checking the toilets. Toilets in principal are a good idea but if you are a male needing to sit down on them, you either have to hold your genital out the way or have it sit in the trough were the wee goes.
Complained but got the same kind of response you see on some of the reviews on Pitchup. Owner offered us a free stay, but with a site that feels like they are putting in minimum resources to gain as much as they can, why would we take them up on the offer when there is far better out there. Every bit of contact is done via text, eventually blocked the number on our return. The owners response to us saying we'd contact Pitchup up was, " if you was in a holiday resort on a beach you would not get refunded if another guest made a noise",
AVOID !!!

Från föreståndaren: Ah you stuck to your word and gave us a bad review if we did not refund you! No matter, you stayed for two nights and no complaint for your first night. The second night an unannounced group did arrive that had booked 5 separate pitches as any other family would do. They did not book as a group as this is not allowed. On the realisation these people were travelling as one, i personally spoke to them at their pitches to remind them of the site rules and to be respectful to other guests. seeing as they all looked middle aged I did not anticipate a problem. We did get complaints from approx. 9pm onwards and after repeated dialogue with them we asked them to leave. I am not sure what else you could expect us to do in this situation. They did leave the next morning all be it far too early, but they went.
Both I and the other site owner was the ones cleaning the toilets, not on a quad but a utility 4 wheel drive vehicle with a tipper back. We offered you a free night stay as a goodwill gesture although the noisy guests were dealt with as legally possible. We are available 24 hours as you know when you contacted us in the evening.
reviews from guests on the same night you stayed...•Helpful management: When our pitch was missing a fire pit, staff responded promptly and directed us to a spare one .•Clean facilities: Toilets were checked regularly and maintained to a good standard :• Noise from large groups: During our weekend stay, several large groups occupied multiple pitches and were noisy late at night and early in the morning, despite campsite rules. This can be hard to police but did impact the experience.

Liked: I like how the campsite is geared towards sustainability and eco-friendliness. Loved the location and the wildlife, wild flowers, birds and insects, real nature! Walks around the Thames, and East Tilbury which I found to be a welcoming place with good shops and good food at the nearby pub. Thanks for a lovely time and I hope to return before long.

Liked: Fire pit and picnic bench. Peaceful. Tidy

Liked: The staff and the laidback vibe

Liked: Well maintained and managed site with the owner even checking if everything's alright

Other than asking them to leave, which we did, and they went what more could we do? Hardly possible for us to refund 150 guests because of the actions of a few. Thanks for the review, all the best

Tyckte om We liked the pitches and how they are separated off with long grass. We enjoyed walking along the path from campsite to marshland and view over the docs.

• Inconsistent showers: While there are three, the water temperature is hard to regulate—either scalding hot or freezing cold.
