What customers say
This campsite boasts a superb location, ideal for accessing Nottingham and the National Water Sports Centre. Visitors frequently praise the spacious pitches, friendly staff, and easy check-in process. While the site is generally clean and well-maintained, with good facilities, some reviews highlight concerns regarding dated or occasionally unkempt toilet and shower blocks. Nonetheless, its family-friendly atmosphere and proximity to activities make it a popular choice for many.

Anonymous Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Well maintained facilities, easily accessible, nice amount of trees and green space. Good playground
Disliked Odd clientele behaviour, some people in cars repeatedly driving to and from the toilet block and revving engines/driving fast past the tourer caravans.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Good location
Disliked This stay was harrowing. Traveller children causing mayhem! I had stuff taken, car scratched, my kids hurt and spat at. I wasn’t the only one. My camping neighbours left after being threatened and needed police escort to leave! A camper also had their diesel nicked. It was kid gang warfare right outside of my tent. The staff simply told me there was nothing they could do. I would say camp as far away from the play park as possible. However if you have kids do not leave them unsupervised up there

Beyond basic toilet standard/hygiene. Lovely pitches otherwise
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Water sports centre next door
Disliked Absolutely appalling toilets, 4 hours and the excrement was still in the toilet seats, tissue all on the floor, disgusting and we’ve been to some basic toilets. I spoke to the staff and he stated he had cleaned them…. Well not in the 4 hours!! Such a disappointment as the site could be so much nicer.
Cleaning station filthy.
Travellers were causing an issue and nothing was done about it.

Anonymous Electric grass pitch
Liked Loved the layout lovely grass pitches , plenty of electric hookups and drinking water taps
Lovely area
Disliked Plenty of toilets and showers , but
Filthy most of the time , even the disabled toilets filthy
No washing up station for disabled either
Plus no hot water to wash up in and sinks blocked for over a day
Shop not open hours said to open
Then 4 members of staff in just chatting when , important things needed doing as above

Lovely pitches,sack the cleaner, manager denied any problem
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Pitch ok
Disliked Toilets absolutely disgusting, not cleaned daily as they said they had been, 3 toilets in men’s were s**t high in one block , cleaner obviously didn’t check this, there are 4 dish washer sinks only 2 were usable as other 2 were blocked and full of greasy water from the time we arrived until the time we left ! The motor home service point may as well not have been there as it was sited in a corner that was impossible to drive on to

Activities for kids.…
Anonymous Electric grass pitch
Liked Activities for kids.
Disliked Where to start... No staff around, facilities unkept, rubbish bins massively over flowing. However it's the people on the park who the wardens cannot get to leave causing the problems. They come and take from your pitches, and our children got assaulted. Nothing to be done apparently

Good price, country location, great for walks, handy for Nottingham

Alright. Wouldn’t go again.
Anonymous Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Good pitch size. V easy check-in. Nice playground.
Disliked Horrible toilets. Smelly. Lots of the doors don’t lock. One person got locked in and had to be rescued by the maintenance team. Showers also smelly and so horrible I don’t use them. Pitch was next to a loud road.
The large inflatable obstacle course shown in the promotional video was not there much to my children’s disappointment.

Wouldn't stay again.
Anonymous Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Good size flat pitch, easily accessible.
Disliked Uncleanliness of toilet/shower facilities and generally around. Didn't see anyone cleaning the whole weekend, just topped up the toilet roll and hand wash.
Son's football was pinched. Didn't feel safe to leave anything unattended.
Recommend to friends Visit again
felt tired and not enough staff looking after facilities
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Stayed in rafters field toilet nearby and good size pitches, ice cream van visiting site was nice in this hot weather
Disliked Toilet doors kept braking during stay and wouldnt. Close properly, forcing us to go to the toilet in pairs to hold the door closed for one another. Park shown on pitchup with slides for kids is not nearby , is a 15-20 min+ walk down road opposite camp this wasnt clear as signage and maps for the site are poor
