This site is close to home for us so great for a week end away. The flowers at reception were beautiful , the staff did just enough, the grass wasn't cut as people left , the bottle dustbins were full all week end , the shower block near the play park was dated and could have been cleaner all not as good as Incleboro fields on a recent visit!!
2nd visit to Clumber Park
Myself, my husband and 3 children (9,7&2yrs) just recently visited Clumber park for 6 nights.
It is set in over 3000 acres of woodland, giving it an impression of peace and tranquility. Clumber park itself has many walks and cycle tracks which makes it perfect for seeing the outdoors.
The site itself has a play park for the children, which all of my children enjoyed.
We found a pitch a little way, from the park as it does get really busy and noisy. Although it states it closes at dusk, children can be heard playing football 9-10pm at night.
As its set in the park land, the site has had problems with bike theft and are trying to solve the problem with a bike lock up and over night security.
A key has to be used to access the toilet block facilities, which can be a little annoying, but understand why this is done.
Sure the wardens are very friendly, but never had anything to do with them during our stay.
We visited wheel gate whilst we stayed here, which I would throughly recommend. Great day out for all of our children - def for up to the ages of 12ish. ( get your money off coupon on the leaflet in the info hut first)
National trust are doing free sports over the summer at the Clumber park visitor centre which is great too.
Good holiday all round.
Fantastic family site
Just come back from spending a few days at Clumber Park for the first time. We deliberately pitched ourselves near the play park so the kids could enjoy the facilities and we could keep an eye on them. They made loads of friends from the moment we arrived, and had a fanatic time. We were lucky with the weather so spent most of the time outside, including visiting the main facilities at Clumber where they were doing sporting activities.
I was impressed by the site, although we chose to be near the play park, anyone without children or wanting a quieter location could choose elsewhere on the site. Facilities were clean, fish and chips on Friday eve were lovely! (Worth queuing for!) I would definitely recommend this site - something for everyone!

Great site
Just had another week here along with the grandaughter,6,she had a geat time,the wardens organised the building of a bug hotel for all the kids,all had a good time,even had tears from her when it was home time.Will return again.Wife commented on the hanging basket display,really beautiful.
Midweek 3 day stay
We love the area and enjoy walks so a lumber site is ideal for us. We felt though that £30 per night (August) is overpriced and would not use it again in high season but possibly go again in the Spring. It is quiet, has large flat pitches and great dog walks. Also here are places of interest close by.
not a site if you only walk
we park our campervan for the duration of our stay and found we were isolated the Clumber park visitors centre was 10 miles away. The nearest place to eat out was an hotel 2 miles away but so badly signposted we could not find it.
Not a place we would rush back to although wardens lovely and the site really clean.
Everything you need for a getaway
This was our first experience of a club site after trying a variety of private & club sites.
Facilities are good. Toilets and showers clean and tidy.
Wardens were polite, cheerful and helpful.
Only downside was the lack of wifi but the plus to that was we found plenty of other things to occupy our time with.
Will certainly visit again
Nice site
We stayed at this site for 3 nights. Both myself and my husband got bitten to pieces on the first night. No more bites after that as we covered ourselves in sprays etc. Its in a nice setting. Staff were friendly and toilet, shower etc were clean. Would visit again.

Leave early
We only stayed 1 of our 2 nights as I found it difficult to lift our bicycles into the storage shed as they were very full and I had to carry both bicycles to the back of the shed over the parked bicycles and the gap was quite small.

Going down hill
We have been going to Cumber park for many years now and find that the standard of the site is slowly going down hill. The cleanliness, grass cutting is not what it used to be or what I would expect for this site as it is one of the flagship sites. With 3 sets of warden on this site I would think more could be done.
Also a accident is waiting to happen at this site with people riding bikes all over the place in all directions on the road way and at speed. Over all we did have a good week on site
