Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: The amount of available space. It is a country park with extra activities available but as a campsite over priced for facilities available.
Helpful and visable night security staff who obviously keep on top of antisocial behaviour.
Disliked: For the cost on a non electric pitch would have expected proper facilities for wash/shower. Instead of portaloos for the cost would have at least expected portacabin toilets / showers and easily accessible rubbish disposal (without an extortionate nightly cost).

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: We loved every moment of of our stay at Aldenham country park. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is great for young children and family's. The adventure play park and farm are brilliant for nice days out away from the campsite. The rustic cafe had a wonderful vibe and serves delicious breakfasts and cakes. Our favourite part of it all was walking through the 100 aker wood and having campfires at night. Highly recommend to all. We also backpacked the entire way very easy to get to ideal for families who want to get away from the city.
Disliked: The toilets had recycled waste but the showers were quite nice only the water was boiling hot to the point you couldn't wash under it and I like my water hot!
