Oakwood Campsite

喜欢 The facilities were impressive - gate security, perfectly level pitch, provision of fresh water around the site, modern toilet & shower block. Also that the inter-pitch screening was by the recent planting of beech hedges rather than conifers.

不喜欢 Some customers seemed not to have been toilet-trained and had left the loos in an unhygienic state. To be fair, 5 loos, 5 showers (both sexes) between so many users are perhaps too few.
Also 1 party felt it necessary to share their taste in music with the rest of the site - fortunately they shut it off at a reasonable time.
Unfortunately there was no clear division between waste and recycling bins.

Regarding your negative ones - Unfortunately, I had a few unwelcome guests the period you were staying, and their habits and complete lack of respect made life difficult. I can only apologise and hope it doesn't put you off in the future.

喜欢 Good clean facilites

喜欢 Good showers and toilet blocks

不喜欢 Had quite a strong smell of cow manure, also got a bit of a telling off when asked if it’s okay to use bbq when the lady done her walk around seems quite strict. Stating she doesn’t agree with them things and don’t be putting it in my bin ‘I mean it’. She did allow us to cook on the road though which was kind 😂. Just didn’t feel like a nice space to be won’t be returning.

来自经理: Hello Darren,
Thank you for your comments.
To address your complaints if I may:
The site is in a agricultural area and therefore if a farmer is spreading manure in the area there will be a smell associated with it for a day or two afterwards.
Regarding the BBQ, it does state very clearly on the Ts and Cs that disposable BBQs are not permitted. You asked , and I explained I was not happy about it but, I allowed it on the gravel. I tried to make my point very clearly as it is usually ignored and I am left to clear up the mess. Disposable BBQs are not environmentally friendly, they burn the grass and remain hot for long periods, potentially causing problems for disposal and other people. These are my reasons for not permitting them.

喜欢 Lovely campsite, very quiet

不喜欢 No toilet brush to clean after yourself

喜欢 Lovely quiet countryside location not too far off the M6. Family friendly. Large flat pitches. Has a nice dog walking area. Facilities are very clean and the bins are kept out of sight. The entrance has a security gate which needs a code. This is the second time I have stayed overnight and can definitely recommend the sight for a longer stay.

喜欢 Great location, excellent facilities

不喜欢 Pay for electricity system. I hate it when a business pushes a problem on to its customers. System don’t work for me and when I asked to pay cash the guy didn’t know what to do. Will look for another site that doesn’t use this system for future stays.

来自经理: Dear Peter,

Thank you for your comments.
When running a business, one has to make decisions. The decision to charge for electricity was taken as the fairest way to solve the problem of high electric costs. Some campers may use £2, others £22. Decisions on usage is then entirely up to the guests.
I was actually away for the weekend you stayed and a friend very kindly looked after the place, if he was unsure what to do this was the reason why. A little humility goes a long way Sir.

喜欢 Good level pitches excellent showers brilliant dog walking area nice secure site would recommend

不喜欢 Thought was expensive for dogs as they don't really use anything at £2 pound aday which puts the price of the pitch up especially if more than one dog toilets kept not flushing but owner had got someone coming out to them didn't like the fact of kids playing football and cricket behind the pitch most of the day was like a school play ground untill they went bed so not peaceful perhaps if they had a area for them to play I would pick a edge pitch next time knowing this is what happens

来自经理: Hi Julie,
Thank you for your kind comments.
Thankfully the toilets are all flushing correctly again!
Regarding dogs, I do charge for them, I think in your case with 5 dogs it was a little unusual.
Kids playing is part of the camping fun, I'm sorry if they caused you problems. As you said, pitch selection is useful.

喜欢 Very friendly and accommodating owner. The site was very spacious.

喜欢 Shower and toilet facilities were nice and modern and a nice spacious place to change with the showers.

不喜欢 Nothing on the site, however exit to the road was a bit of a challenge due to hedges and unable to see well, maybe a mirror opposite might make this easier and safer.

来自经理: Hi,
Thank you for your kind comments.

The exit can be a bit tricky.
The hedges have been cut now.
Unfortunately out local council do not allow me to put a mirror opposite

喜欢 Clean toile.
Pub about 15 to 20 minutes walk away.
Felt very reassured the caravan was safe on site due to security measures

不喜欢 The biggest disappointment was that we were charged for the electric we used the owner said that she charges the electric at 50 pence per kilowatt hour £5 lasted us from 3 o'clock in the afternoon until 8:05 the next morning this should definitely be stated on the website before booking we found out the day before via email and we wanted to cancel but you're unable to cancel a week before the arrival.
The only bin was full and we were unable to close the lid.
The grass was in need of cutting not good when you're on a grass pitch

来自经理: Dear Colin,

Please allow me to address your comments:

You are correct, I do now charge for electric at 50p pkh . Due to the concerns of several guests, I now offer £2 per night free of charge. It is stated in the Ts and Cs that I charge for electric.

The bin was full and replaced with another receptacle.

The grass was cut before the weekend and will be cut again today (Tuesday) I never cut grass at weekends when the site is busy.
