  • Family-run 25-acre site 10 minutes' walk from the village of Wolvey
  • Coventry, Leicester and Warwick Castle within a half-hour drive
  • Café with a garden; fishing (for an additional fee) at two large lakes
Love a lakeside location? You should be happy with your lot at 5 Ways Lakes, a lovely Warwickshire site with not one but two large lakes on its 25-acre property. Those bodies of water are fabulous for creating a soothing backdrop for your break, and for providing habitats for the various species of wildlife that call this place home… And they’re sure to be of particular interest to anglers of all ages too, as they’re well stocked with fish. When you're ready to spend the day fishing, grab a fishing day ticket from the site for an additional fee, making sure to bring along a current rod licence and adhere to the catch-and-release policy. At four acres, Kestrel is the larger of the two lakes, with three islands, 60 pegs and a variety of fish weighing up to 20lb. Mallard, meanwhile, is a three-acre specimen carp lake with two islands and home to common and mirror carp weighing over 25lb. Not into fishing? No problem – this family-run site is a chilled-out place where you can simply relax in quiet surroundings, perhaps picking up snacks and drinks from the café (best enjoyed out in the garden area on a sunny day…) It’s a place that welcomes all guests too, with dogs welcome and accessible facilities provided for visitors with restricted mobility. This is a proper rural location, with your nearest amenities (including two pubs) in the village of Wolvey, 10 minutes’ walk away along a public footpath. It’s surprisingly well connected though, with the M6, M69 and A5 all a short drive away.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: We were delighted by our stay at this family-owned and run and family-friendly campsite. There's a great choice of pitches, including a large field and several spaces separated by hedges that provide more privacy and protection from the wind.
Although we didn't fish, the main draw of the site are two fishing lakes, which are popular with campers and locals alike.
The toilet and shower facilities were spotless when we arrived in the early evening and some of the cleanest and most modern we've encountered on our extensive camping adventures. Best of all, the reception houses a shop and cafe that serves hot drinks and food throughout the day. We enjoyed a generous and reasonably priced hot breakfast which set us up for our day exploring a nearby country park. Thank you Charlotte for a lovely stay.

Disliked: Local scout groups enjoy activities in the extensive grounds, including paintballing and kayaking. Sadly, these aren't available to the general public.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Great start to the season, just round the corner from me so stayed one night to dust off the camping cobwebs. Washing facilities great, a great welcome from the team and perfect for dog walks on a brisk weekend morning.

Local attractions

Fancy starting with a stroll? There’s a good network of footpaths running from the village of Wolvey (10 minutes’ walk away) – and with two pubs in the village, you’ll be able to reward yourselves with a nice drink at the end. For more walks nearby, try Fosse Meadows Country Park (15 minutes’ drive), Brandon Marsh Nature Reserve (20 minutes) or Coombe Abbey Park (15 minutes), which has a deer park and a Go Ape adventure course. To take a look into the area’s past, head to Grant WW2 Museum (10 minutes) and Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre (25 minutes), or plan to spend a day exploring the many attractions of Warwick Castle (half an hour) – it’s got bird of prey displays, a Horrible Histories maze, archery sessions and a Zog-themed playground as well as the castle itself to visit. Your surroundings may be thoroughly rural, but city life isn’t far off – you might like to head into Coventry (20 minutes) to visit the twin cathedrals and the Coventry Music Museum or turn north to Leicester (half an hour) for the National Space Centre and King Richard III Visitor Centre.
