Relaxing site and area.

The site is clean and well maintained. It was our first stay on this site. The wardens were helpful and had a welcome sense of humour. The local park and river provided a nice place for a walk. There is a pub adjacent to the site although we did not visit it on this occasion. Covid restrictions in force at the time of our stay meant that the pub was outside service only. We were unaware of any disturbances due to the pub during our stay and therefore deem it to be a positive option for future stays. Even better, there was an ice cream shop next to the pub. You can see that I am still a child when it comes to sweet things! One suggestion/request is that members should adhere to the earliest arrival time of 1pm and the latest departure time of midday. The access to the site is not great (maybe even classed as poor) and it would be a disaster if someone was late leaving combined with a number of caravans or motorhomes all trying to 'sneak in' early. Be considerate of others and to the wardens and stick to the designated times. This did impact on our decision one day as to if we should we leave the site in our car to visit local shops. We were concerned that we would have to queue in a long line of campers waiting to book in onsite upon our return. I can recommend this site to all if you like a quiet site in a very pleasant location but one that has options/facilities nearby.

Dogs being a nuisance

This site is lovely and we love staying here Site is spotless and well maintained with fabulous friendly wardens BUT .. Inconsiderate dog owners!!!! Dogs being left to roam round with no lead or restraint and cock their legs up On other people’s awnings, cushions ,tyres etc Dogs yapping and barking with no response from owner who appear oblivious Dogs on these half mile extending leads whilst the owners are ignorant as to what their darling 4 legged pets are doing at the other end of these ridiculous extending leads Really should be more rules regarding dogs

Great but some dog owners ruin the peace

I actually detest staying on this site but need to do so once a year to have my van serviced nearby, every time I have been here we have been disturbed by dogs. The site would be wonderful but for some inconsiderate Caravan and Motorhome dog owners that have no respect for other folks right to peace and quiet . Why can’t these owners understand that their dogs constant barking is not everyone’s cup of tea...soooo irritating .

COVID-19 staycation

After reading some negative reviews on TripAdvisor I was unsure if I had booked the right place for my family. But after arrival that had disappeared. The grounds are well kept. Clean and well maintained facilities. Yes, a policy of 2 in, at the toilet and shower block. The downside was that the toddler room was not in use, due to COVID. Friendly wardens. The park was peaceful and quiet. I’m guessing due to the time of the year. The caravan park is surrounded by the beautiful Burrs Country Park. A great play ground just a walk away. Enough to keep the littles happy. We will be definitely be returning next year.

Great staff. Unruly campers.

This is a beautiful site, amazing wardens who are so friendly and helpful. They have a hell of a job on their hands during COVID. People are clearly holidaying with people outside of their household in separate caravans. As we’ve been placed in Tier 3 restrictions this is not allowed. Too many people using the toilet block when only 2 are allowed. Do these lovely people (the wardens) a break and conform to the few things we’ve been asked to do. I would’ve given 5 stars for everything but was disappointed people are clearly not following guidelines.

What a wonderful Weekend Away

This was our first visit to Burrs and we will be returning again. The site was lovely and well kept and in a lovely location. We visit the local pub for a meal which was ok, and took the opportunity to go on the steam train that runs from the site to visit some of the local area which was great fun (note you have to book 24 hours in advance of travelling due to the CoVid restrictions). We took a walk around the park which was busy especially in the "damp conditions" we had for our weekend. The wardens were great and very helpful and we were able to change our pitch requirements when we arrived. I would highly recommend it and hope to visit again next year.

Quietest visit to Burrs!

We arrived for 12 as usually do when visiting Burrs without thinking admission times may have changed due to the Covid situation so had to park up along Woodhill Road as the whole of Burrs Country Park was heaving being a Sunday. Not a problem, we had a walk with the dog and then made our way onto site. We were welcomed by a friendly, approachable warden who explained everything about current covid safety on site. She was a delight and under present circumstances with such strict rules to adhere to, didn't let that get in the way of a bit of humour and time to chat. We have visited Burrs many times now, have always liked the layout, the pitch sizes are great and facilities looked after diligently. The site was very quiet, time of year maybe or Covid.......perfect for those of us who want / need a change of scenery without taking unnecessary risks to ourselves or others. We will be back ( if we are spared) next season.

Feedback

The site was lovely and clean. Very friendly and warm staff. During this period of Covid 19, whilst I fully appreciate the rules of social distancing and that we should use our own toilet and showers facilities on board, I did feel 2 toilets and 2 showers on this site was sometimes a little tricky. Perhaps a new shower, toilet and wash station would be very gratefully received on this site.

Lovely location

We stayed here for a weekend at the end of July. The lady in Reception was a little gem with a sense of humour (not the usual, in a good way as she was a breath of fresh air) and 2 male wardens we spoke to were also very helpful as our elcetric cable wasn't long enough to reach so they allowed us to turn the caravan around which ended up much better as we had more privacy. It was very busy and not many pitches to choose from. The band system in place seemed to work well. It is in a lovely country park with plenty of space and a nice walk. We didn't have any problems with the access road (as mentioned in other reviews), it was busy but plenty of room. Shopping centre close by. Would definitely recommend.

One of our favorite sites

Firstly I've reviewed this site in the past but felt I needed to do a new one. Had a great 9night stay from Bank Holiday weekend. Lovely friendly welcome form wardens who worked hard to keep things Covid safe. Cleaning toilet/shower facilities twice a day & regular checks around the site each day. Grass did need cutting when we first arrived but once the busy weekend was over it was done. It was also nice to see the steam trains running.....Now the reason for the updated review. Firstly 2 of my biggest bug bares. 1: cutting through pitches!😡 Why when there is a major pandemic on do people think it's ok to cut through pitches? It's not ok in normal times as it's just damn right rude but to blatantly walk past people's doors for the sake of a few yards in this day & age is out of order. 2: Letting pets stop to do their business on pitches. There's a suitable dog walk & an enormous park outside the gates, use them!! Lastly speed! Far too many people speed around the site. Come on people get a grip!!
