Good site for breaking a longer journey or relaxing holiday.
Clumber Park is a large site set in woodland. The pitches, a mix of hardstanding and grass are spaced out and well sheltered by tall trees. Some of the grass pitches are rather devoid of grass where awnings have been and can become very muddy when it rains. The Club ask that groundsheets are lifted every day but, given the condition of some of the pitches this is not really practical. Some of the hardstanding pitches are also in need of tidying up. Phone reception is non existent and the tv reception is poor but there is a booster system, providing you have a cable.
Access to the site is easy, apart from the long queues which can develop around the 1300 arrival time. We arrived at 1345 and it took over 20 minutes to check in. Given it’s proximity to the A1 it makes a good base for an overnight stop or a longer stay to enjoy the local area which is great for walking, cycling or just chilling out. From the site you can walk all around the lake (about 6 miles) and there are plenty of places to have a picnic as well as two National Trust cafe’s.
