Clumber during August 2020.

The wardens were all very friendly and I really liked the facility of the shop. The food vans that came to site were very nice food. We liked the bike lock up system. The toilets were not kept as clean as they could of been particularly during this COVID season.

Great Site

Our second visit to Clumber Park, fabulous site. Very good for cycling as very close to the country park. There is an on site cycle lock up shed which is great and puts your mind at rest knowing the bikes are safe when not in use. A pizza van and fish and chip van visit the site on certain evening's which is great. The toilet and shower facilities could do with a refurb they are a little tired now but very clean and tidy. The staff are very helpful too, our water pipe sprung a leak while filling our freshwater tank just as we arrived on site in our motorhome. One of the wardens spotted we had a problem and promptly offered to replace the pipe for us, he came the next morning with pipe and his tools and put the new pipe on for us, fabulous, we were so grateful to him. So a big shout out and thank you to Scott who didn't hesitate to help us and certainly helped us enjoy our break even more, brilliant!

Another lovely stay

Have stayed here many times now and always enjoy it for the location and the peace and quiet. The staff are friendly and very helpful. My only little gripe is the time it took to actually get booked in and on site last time - over an hour and a half of queuing. I know you’re not to blame for the COVID-19 restrictions but could some of the paperwork and waffle be done after people park up and come back for their key fobs etc? The staff, including traffic organisers outside the site, were lovely though, especially as they were bearing the brunt of people’s frustrations. The toilets and shower blocks could do with an update, but are clean and tidy. The hook system at the door for covid seems to work well.

Charming Clumber Park

We chose this site for a 3 night break as we are new motorhomers ( we have owned a trailer tent and caravans before) and CMC members. Previously we have tended to prefer cl sites mostly for the peace and quiet . However ,I can cheerfully say “what a lovely site ,well managed in a charming location.” The wardens were very friendly and helpful as were the fellow “campers “ . Pitches were generously spaced and clean. Facilities were a little dated but maintained in a good condition and kept spotlessly clean. It was lovely to see children enjoying themselves riding bikes especially after lockdown . We liked the ease of access and all the beautiful walks from site. Will definitely visit again.

First Clumber Park Visit

First visit to Clumber Park and the booking in system couldn't have been easier, although we arrived around 1.30pm so there was a bit of a queue. Picked a hard standing site and there were no issues. The band system required for toilet block generally worked well, only kids seemed to not follow it (or didn't understand). Facilities were spot on considering the additional requirements. Was slightly disappointed that the play area was closed, although we understand the reasons why. This did mean kids were zooming about on scooters and bikes throughout the day! Our kids are too young for bikes etc so did mean there wasn't as much to occupy them as we had hoped. But with loads to do in a 20 minute radius during the day it wasn't much problem. Will consider returning in the future!

School Holidays - Beware the Bikes

Firstly - Thank you to the lovely wardens who greeted us with genuine warmth and worked tirelessly to maintain the facilities during these unprecedented times. The site was well kept, with close cut grass and had evidently been re-chipped in some of the hard-standing areas. Fantastic walks with the dog into Clumber Park. Our only issue was with the large groups of cyclists who congregated on the site each evening to race around the pitches at speeds well in excess of 5mph. As ex-teachers we should have known better than to book during school holidays. We like children - it goes with the territory - but this did appear to be unchecked and one evening a youngster had a very close call with our A frame. Clumber Park itself has excellent, well marked cycle trails; perhaps recreational cycle racing could be prohibited on site to ensure safety and enjoyment for all.

Good to be back!

We must send our thanks to all the staff at Clumber Park. The first day back and 160 arrivals to manage! From a telephone call a few days before to plugging in the Ehu for us it was all very painless and very well managed. Wardens were still checking arrivals in with a smile at 6pm! We enjoyed the site mainly for cycling this time. A lovely ride through Clumber Park into Sherwood forest and on to the Major oak and the Robin Hood visitors centre. We are happy to use our own facilities so I am not aware of any social distancing issues. Let us hope we can catch up some of the breaks we have all missed since March. Enjoy your stay.

LOVELY STAY IN STRANGE TIMES

We stayed on Saturday 4th July, which was the opening day after the recent lockdown. The arrival procedures were well organised and efficient, although there needs to be more explained about the wrist band system for the toilet facilities on arrival. We were just told that these were "to monitor use of the toilet block". There was lots of information handed to us on arrival, and signs on the outside of the toilet blocks explaining what to do, but not everyone reads them! Our pitch had a view of the gents entrance to the block. At one point we counted that there were 7 men inside (maximum 3 allowed), but only 1 wrist band on the hook outside! Despite that it was lovely to stay here again, and it was really peaceful with the playground being closed :-) Under the circumstances the Wardens have done an excellent job. They were checking around the site very frequently, they were obviously under some pressure, but always had smiles on their faces. Well done!!!

Weekend Break

After coming here for many years I would like to add a couple of points that we noticed on our short weekend break. This was the first site that we came to when we got our first caravan, and now 12 years later it appears that the toilet block has been not renovated during this time, it is now looking tired and needs modernising. Other sites (Caravan Club and None CC sites have much nicer toilet blocks), and given that this site is quite higher priced, you don't feel like you are receiving value for your money. The other thing we noticed is what appeared to be a few families of travelers on the site, with very untidy pitch areas, large families, loud music played late into the night, and kids on bikes everywhere, this was quite worrying at times. I do enjoy the area and great walking to the Clumber Park visitor centre. Hopefully the Caravan Club have this site on the horizon for further improvements in 2020.

Great site

This is a great site if you like walking. Wardens keep this site really clean and tidy. I can't think of anything that needs to be improved on. The only problem is not having a mobile phone signal. Not a bad thing though.
