Makins Lakes

Ik was blij met Lovely Park. Fishing 🎣 lake is a pleasant bonus area, you can sit & watch the anglers, which seems a very popular site.
Electric hookup
Showers

Ik was niet blij met Not a dislike but a observation. The showers need an update ie shower 🚿 heads. Need a shelf or tray where you can place shampoo, soap etc rather than having to place on the shower tray.
Outside wash up area & counters are ok, but really need to clean all the dead insects around the ceiling & walls ☹️

Ik was blij met The pitches are a good size and the toilet blocks are always clean. The pizzas on the Friday night was great also. You get more than what you pay for.

Ik was blij met We really liked the lakes & general look of the place. Staff all friendly & toilet blocks & wash area kept clean. On the Friday night, a member of staff was driving round to tell everyone about a little get together down at the cafe/bar with a stone-baked pizza stall there too. We popped down & really enjoyed it… the pizza was amazing! Used the cafe for lunch on the Saturday & the food was very reasonably priced! Checking in process really simple & if you have forgotten anything, there is a large selection of products available in the reception shop (e.g. food, drinks, medicine, toothpaste, cleaning products etc). A great place to go for our first ever time camping with the children & really good value for money. I’m not sure if they had WiFi in cafe but we naturally didn’t have any on the camping field so can’t rate that.

Ik was niet blij met There wasn't much for young children to do. There are some football posts & a large field near the campsite to play on & I do appreciate this campsite is primarily for fishing weekends, but I think it would be improved that tiny bit more by having some swings/climbing frames etc. Is located next to a road so if you camp along the bushes you can hear cars going past throughout the night & can hear a dual carriageway that is nearby in the distance, so if you’re a light sleeper this may affect you. (It didn’t bother us or our small kids one bit but just worth a mention).

Ik was blij met Mel at the reception was brilliant, she was very helpful and offered options when the cafe was closed. Other staff members were helpful too.

Clean facilities and near to where we pitched our tent. Lots of room for kids to run around and play. Unfortunately we didn't get to use the games room but that was our call.

Ik was niet blij met I think the cafe isn't open throughout the week but then staff are readily available to offer options as there are other cafes nearby.

Ik was blij met Quiet site, plenty of fishing lakes

Ik was niet blij met Washing and toilet facilities weren’t the cleanest. Full of spider webs and spiders that had been there for some time.

Ik was blij met We've stayed twice now, only for one night each time. The campsite it's self is a field so not much to say there, it's exactly as we expected it to be. The fishing lakes are great, we managed to catch on both visits. The shop is stocked with a hood variety of items, and great tackle shop.

Ik was niet blij met Unfortunately I was less impressed with the toilet situation, if you go non electric you will have a bit of a walk to go to the toilet, which is a bit of annoying especially when you need to go early hours of the morning. There's 5/6 toilets in the ladies and some showers but that's it for the whole campsite. This last visit I wasn't too impressed with the state of them and lack of toilet roll. My partner too hasn't been too impressed with the mens toilets as only two toilets availed again for the whole campsite. Really do need another toilet block preferably in the non electric field.
