Amazing Christmas break

Had a fantastic break here over Christmas. Location brilliant for access into London. Wardens couldn’t have been more helpful. Clean site with lovely facilities. We had two large dogs with us and was really worried about walking them. Lesnes Abbey was just a 5 minute walk away and had lovely woodland walks. Will definitely visit again.

Relaxing and peaceful, and so convenient for London.

We both LOVE this site. It's very easy to reach from the M25, either by going up the A2 or, if there's a backlog of traffic for the Dartford Crossing (approaching from the south), the M20. The staff are always friendly and welcoming, and the facilities are very clean and well laid out. There are two motor home service points and numerous other service points around the site. The hard-standing pitches are spacious and level. We always see squirrels and fox families, as well as the flocks of wild green parakeets which add an exotic touch! The site is only a 10 minute walk to the newly refurbished Abbey Wood station, with very regular trains into central London. As Charlton fans, it's only a 12 minute train journey to the ground, and, for a day out in Greenwich, it's just 15 minutes away. There is a big Sainsburys just behind the station and numerous takeaways nearby. We have already booked for a couple of stays next year.

Great site

Having just read a review from August, I total disagree with it. We have been several times to this site and the staff have always been friendly and very helpful. We went when the beast from the east was on and the staff were worried when we didn't show up on time, due to accident on M1. I call that caring. The site is always clean and tidy. The facilities are kept very clean and warm. I take getting to a site my responsibility, we go via Woolwich ferry when running or Blackwall Tunnel, if you don't want to pay Dartford crossing. We were there last week on a family emergency. We found we had a puncture on the van just as we were leaving. We did ask some advise as our spare wheel is under the van and we couldn't get it out. The staff member didn't hesitate to come and have a go with us. As none of us could get the bolt loose, he left but came back with another member of staff and tools and managed to get the wheel out. They even offered to change the wheel for us, which we declined. But I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU for their help, especially as it was pouring with rain. Sorry we didn't get your names. I think this site is great so near London. It's always busy and of course there ARE sirens going at all times in the area, but it is a city. I've never found this a problem. Great site

Excellent for visiting capital!

Stayed at Abbey Wood for 2 nights in November. Rates site as 'excellent' due to location and friendliness, knowledge and helpfulness of wardens and other staff - thank you! Good sized pitches in woodland about 45 minutes from central London using Thameslink trains from Abbey Wood station; note that this route will soon be upgraded as on Cross-City line! Showers/toilets etc. spotlessly clean and whole site a credit to staff. Note; suggest visitors follow road signs to site rather than descend down Knee Hill as turn into Federation Road is somewhat tight! May need to book well in advance due to proximity and ease of access to capital!

The minimum to be considered a site for the CMC

We were there in august and had a neutral check in and a bad check out. The staff in the desk is tired of tourists, so plain. It seems that bothered them to give directions, and even they did it wrong to get out of there: send us to the A202, which doesn't exist. Even showing the man that it didn't appear on the map insisted in his information, and it lead us to the Dartford Crossing, surely with no information about the tax, when the better route was through the south M25. In the middle: close to London through the train in 40 minutes, plus 10 to the train station, that's true. Although they cleaned everyday, it's a very busy site, and that was not enough for the CMC standards we've met anywhere else. We saw rubbish out of the place for four days till they cleaned it. Though the site is quite, you can listen sirens all through the night. So if not for being close to London, it's not a good site.

excellent site

This is a well established site set out beautifully amongst the trees,i wont bore you writing about the facilities they are immaculate. We stopped here to go to a concert at the O2 The Taxi fare was 16.00 each way.We also visited Greenwich and caught a water taxi into the center of London 6.50 each way and well worth the money as it passes so many famous landmarks. This must rate as one of the best club sites

What's not too like!

Excellent location (bearing in mind it's London), handy for trains and buses, countryside feel, best facilities (as standard Club sites) and very freindly staff. Much cheaper than using hotels and more peaceful.

Perfect site for easy access to Central London

Just spent a perfect 4 nights in October, blessed with warm sunshine. The beautiful Chestnut trees on the site were full of squirrels and green Parakeets - and Mr Fox was a regular visitor. It felt as if we were in the heart of the country, but in fact the station was 5 minutes walk away, and the frequent train service took about 20 minutes to reach London Bridge. From there you can catch a tube easily if you want to visit further into London - we spent time at Hampstead Heath, Hyde Park, Oxford Street, Soho and Camden Town. We felt safe and secure at all times on site, a real bonus as we don't know the area at all. The wardens were all super friendly and helpful. We'll be back, hopefully annually!

An Amazing Site.

What an amazing site this is in every possible way. - we booked it as a base for visiting family in Woolwich, but the site is also so convenient for getting into central London. Bus stops & train station are only & few minutes walk away, as are numerous shops and a Sainsbury supermarket. There’s a small dog walk area on site, but the old Abbey fields are again only a few minutes walk away with so much detailed info on the Abbey. We’d read so much about this site but expected it to be a lot of hype - we were wrong. This is a superb value for money location, with very friendly and helpful site wardens. - This is definitely on our ‘visit again’ list.

A haven near Central London

A five night stay gave us time for trips to Greenwich by bus (40 mins), 2 train trips to Central London (Cannon St or Charing Cross about 25/30 mins), a 'stay local day' when we walked to the nearby Lesnes Abbey Park - amazing views over London and interesting ruined Abbey and park for a picnic and a good local curry at the Taj Mahal. With parakeets in the trees, warm sunshine, clean toilets, a big new Sainsburys 10 mins walk away and friendly staff it was a great camp site to stay for London tourists.
