From the manager: We're so pleased that you have enjoyed your stay with us. We hope to see you again soon.

Liked Had a 2 night stay at Riddings Wood on the none electric field. As the first night was Saturday there was a lot of children on the field, but was quite shocked that by 10 o'clock the children all disappeared back to their tents and it was very quiet.Found it very peaceful and relaxing there! The Manager came round on both nights checking we had no problems which we thought was very good.

Disliked The none electric field was right at the back of the campsite so was quite a way to carry our water butts being in our late 60's.

Liked The toilet and shower facilities were very nice, always clean and well stocked and the shower was the perfect temperature.
There were 2 pubs just a 5 minute walk away.
The local chinese takeaway was amazing.

Disliked The pitch was quite a way from the shower block because it is a very large sight.
Our pitch was on a slope so not ideal.

Quite a hill to walk to the toilet block from bottom of the field, but only due to being g so hot and me unfit!

From the manager: thankyou for your review. We are pleased you have enjoyed your stay with us. We look forward to seeing you again.

Liked Nice clean facilities.

Disliked Upon arrival was greeted by a lady who made me feel quite unwelcome - pitch up had double booked my booking (not my fault) and she wasn't happy about that. Then told me exactly how I was allowed to pitch my tent, and said the site manager would come over to check that it was done properly.

Luckily had an electric pitch which was at the top of the site so close to the facilities, if we were on a non-electric pitch it would have been a long walk. They were also quite small if the site had been fully booked. Pitches weren't marked out with lines or fencing, but the site manager did come over to tell me how much of the space I could use and check how I was pitching my tent.

The site page on pitch up also states flat pitches, which would be true if you were on the non-electric field at the bottom of the hill. All electric pitches are on a hill. Not an issue, just not what's advertised.

Overall it was a nice stay, but the lack of freedom to pitch how I'd like to, and the check-ins from the site manager (which I've never experienced in any other campsite) made this a less recommendable site than others I've been to.

From the manager: Good afternoon thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback.

We are sorry if check in was not a good experience for you this was not our intention.

We are going to mark our pitches this is in hand until there are clear boundaries between pitches we are aiming to pitch all the tents as they arrive and are giving customers clear direction on where to pitch because we have had previous feedback regarding tents pitching where they like and not leaving enough space for others sorry if the pitching instructions made you feel unwelcome.

Liked This campsite has been placed in a special location, there are many different towns to visit and explore whilst amenities are available nearby. The campsite is well kept and very friendly. The campsite managers couldn’t be more helpful or and checked we had everything we needed during our stay so it would be really enjoyable. Great for walking dogs and they’re clearly welcome.

Disliked It would be great if there could be a second toilet block for use when the campsite is busier. We stayed during the week and enjoyed the clean facilities . However when it got much busier at the weekend, it would’ve been better and easier to have a nearer block to rely on. Practically we didn’t have a problem and had access throughout our stay so it’s just a suggestion for improvement.

From the manager: Thankyou for your feedback. We are looking into adding an additional facilities block.

Liked Sehr schöne Gegend die zum Spaziergang am See im Tal einlädt. Nette Leute am Empfang und toller Ausblick.

Disliked Der Empfang war bei der Abreise trotz der Öffnungszeiten leider nicht besetzt und wir sind nicht die Leute, die extra anrufen, um auf Wiedersehen zu sagen. Wir hatten bezahlt und es war alles geregelt und so sind wir gefahren
