Excellent location
What a wonderful site, the toilet block facilities are to a high standard and very warm in winter. The wardens were exceptionally friendly and helpful and we would definitely return again.

great site with great surroundings.
this was my second time at this site and once again i cant fault the site or the staff. the site is very clean and very peaceful and has a very nice pub near the entrance which serves good food and a good selection of drinks. outside of the site there is nice walks along the river and occasionally you will see people on canoe training courses which was good to watch for a short while. there isnt much in the way for kids on site but a few things to do just outside the site and the vintage trains that pass just outside the boundaries of the site are a great treat, safe to say we will be back again,
Lovely site
First time at this site, came during January . Surprised by how busy it was. Toilets and shower facilities exceptionally clean and lovely and warm as you enter the shower block. Lots to do around. Anyone who likes curries recommend Jewel in the crown, will come again .

First timers to site
This was our first time at a Caravan Club site we chose Burrs Park as it was local. We found it spotless, well maintained, quiet, even though works were being done on site. The wardens were friendly and helpful. we enjoyed the steam trains going past and we had an excellent view as we had parked close to the rail line! Even though it rained it didn't spoil our weekend. The local pub was absolutely wonderful. A proper local pub, food was fantastic, not overpriced. Staff were welcoming. We had no hesitation in booking again for another weekend in March.
Wet break.
Clean, quiet, well laid out site with good toilet facilities. Friendly staff. Being in a campervan and due to heavy persistent rain we were very limited as to what we could do and where we could go.

Winter stay
Another lovely stay. Must thank Fiona and Ray for a well run site even providing entertainment for us from a caravan club film crew. We have already booked again for later.

Disappointed, poor attitude.
Booked on for a long weekend Thursday to Sunday to see the flying Scotsman and have a decent break from work. Site is always clean and tidy and have visited several times before. Close to the park and great for dog walking and kids have a ball down by the river.
On sauturday the snow came down heavy and Sunday morning we decided it was unsafe to leave. We asked the warden if we could leave the can and pick it up once the snow had cleared as leaving the site is on cobbles and a few twists and turns.
The response was a very abrupt 'it's not our concern how you get here or how you get home!. I was obviously taken aback by the ladies response to show a little understanding. She then went on to explain if I left the van they would charge me one night pitch fee and one adult. I expressed my disappointment at this stance and complete lack of understanding to be met with a further response stating 'those are the rules'. I was then told that if I left the van I could only leave it unoccupied for 48 hours, I explained I was working away in Scotland so that would be difficult.
The lady just repeated, 'well that's the rules'. I asked if tat was because the site was full? And was told no it wasn't.
I left after apron a further £64 to leave the an for a week, I asked if I could arrange to pick the van up early would they, given the circumstances refund pitch fees, again the 'rules' were quoted stating if I gave 72 hours notice they would refund or I would lose a nights fees. This warden showed no compassion or understanding and was clearly intent on taking as much money off members as possible, whilst hiding behind the 'rules'. I can honestly say having visited this site many times over last 6 years these are the most unfriendly wardens who cannot even pass time of day with members. I am not the only person to gave danced this issue with the snow and others commented on the unfriendly wardens.
I am awaiting response to my complaint from the regional manager.
Very enjoyable
Have visited this site before and always enjoy our stay, we spent five nights recently specificlally to see the Flying Scotsman, as usual spent a very enjoyable weekend seeing the steam trains, the wardens were a lovely couple and worked hard to keep the site clean and tidy. The only downside was the water in the showers, and the radiators in the toilet block were hardly warm, this was on a particularly cold and snowy weekend, we realise the temperature has to be regulated but it was very unpleasant taking a shower.
