Great for London Visits

Very good site if you want to visit London - the train station is conveniently nearby. The park is quite large and surprisingly peaceful, given that it is located in a busy urban area. The standard of the park is good, neat and well kept, the staff are very friendly and helpful. A large supermarket is about 15-20 minutes walk away, the site map may be a bit confusing but go up the stairs to the bridge above - it's nearby. Remember there is a C-zone on the Dartford bridge and a charge is applicable from 6am to 10pm. The roads approaching the site are typical London-type roads - narrow with many parked cars so take care. There is a super overnight area next to the gate with power hookup if you arrive late. The only downside of our visit was the walk to the shops and train station through a very scruffy area and past a pub with some unsavoury characters outside. Everything else was great.

First Visit

We stayed here for 4 days having returned from our tour of Europe. The wardens are all helpful and friendly, and it is a well maintained site. The toilet/shower blocks (2 of them) are standard Caravan Club. The washing machine and drier are very good. The site is close to Abbey Wood train station with regular trains into London. The site is very quiet and I would recommend it to all members.

Fantastic site

Loved staying on this site. Train station only a stone throw away. Sainsburys superstore also within walking distance. Staff were so welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. Very peaceful site. Would definitely stay here again.

may bank Holiday Break

An excellent site for visiting London. The staff were friendly and informative, the site was clean and attractive and although within a built up area of London seemed very rural. trains from the local station were not running over the bank holiday so we took the number 180 bus (5mins walk) to Greenwich for a lovely day out and on the second day took a boat from Greenwich pier to central London. I will definitely be coming back here.

A great site but expensive for Motorhomes

This is a great site in many, many respects - most of which are contained in the other reviews - including proximity to Abbey Wood train station which gives easy transport to central London. There is also an excellent and very nearby bus service into other places including Greenwich. There is a super café in the village just before the train station which specialises in cooked breakfast food - all day. There are lots of other good local shops between the café and the station catering for most needs. The site was very tidy and the showers/toilets were very good indeed. A lovely wooded setting with large pitches so there is plenty of space between all units. Whilst the pitch charges are fine - BE WARNED OF THE EMISSION CHARGES which no one has mentioned as far as I can see. Namely for a 3.5 kg motor home there is a £100 emission charge for EACH day of driving in the Zone which is where this site is situated. That means paying £100 to get into the site and another £100 to get out on a different day ! Actually in my case the matter was even worse as our motor home is 4 kgs and for which the charge was £200 for the day of arrival and another £200 for the day of departure. IN ADDITION there is the small matter of having to pay a £14 CONGESTION CHARGE fore each of the two days which made a grand EXTRA total of £428 on top of the site charges. We are convinced that there are many visitors who are blissfully unaware of these charges until they receive penalty notices which are crippling - take a look at this: https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/low-emission-zone/penalty-charges Otherwise we had a great stay !

Response from the Club:

Hi there, thanks so much for taking the time to leave your review, it sounds like you had a great time on site. You're right, the site is within the London Low Emission Zone, so we advise anyone travelling to the site to visit http://www.tfl.gov.uk/lezlondon for more information. We hope to see you on site again soon.

Perfect

We used this site as a base for the London Marathon, it was an excellent site, clean facilities, friendly staff and the location was brilliant, just a 10 minute walk to the railway station with trains stopping at the Marathon start (Maze Hill), or into central London for spectators. Would definitely recommend and will be using again next year.

Visit 31/3 to 19/4

Everything excellent as always. Only one blemish-the wifi signal is appaling.I have complained formally to Airangel because we paid for a year's service. Recommendation: charge more and tell them to get it right - this was a problem for us.

Tall Ships at Greenwich

The location could not be better for access to Greenwich, and indeed the rest of London. Every form of transport was nearby. Spacious pitches.Our only complaint was the standard of wifi. Having paid for a full year's access we found that we had slow access for only two days and virtually none for the remainder. We would like to particularly mention the warmth and friendliness of the many staff we met around the site. They really made us feel welcome. We would certainly return.
