Excellent for families

A great site for families, plenty to see and do around the site. If you want peace and quiet this site is probably best avoided particularly during school holiday times . The site itself is great with friendly wardens and great standards.

Avoid if travelling late

Stayed overnight enroute. Please note that no arrivals admitted after 8pm. Not made very clear whilst booking. Called to inform wardens we could arrive slightly after this time and they were blatantly unhelpful and a unwilling to assist. There are only 2 LNA bays so not much comfort there. We managed to arrive on time but felt as though we were an inconvenience. Site was very pleasant but made to feel unwelcome. Needed key for showers but that wasn't explained on arrival so very inconvenient in the morning and met with attitude when asking for the key. Shame as site seemed lovely.

Clumber stay

Excellent site. Note my mark for peace and quiet only applies on weekdays, from Friday evening through to Sunday the site (and the Park) gets very busy. Facilities are fine but I don't agree with the Wardens practice of shutting off facilities when the site isn't full, this means you can still end up queing when there are facilities not being used. When we were there last week 2 of the 5 showers in the nearest block along with 3 of the washrooms and one wc were closed off. Clearly doing this gives the wardens less to clean but but aren't we entitled to use of the full facilities? I don't consider this to be good practice.

Lovely site - Shame about the welcome

We arrived on Friday to be told by the lovely lady warden on reception that they had a bit of a panic on because someone had just 'tailgated the barrier', so we were booked in in between her speaking on the radio to the wardens out on site who were trying to sort out the situation. Unfortunately, she omitted to ask us not to pull forward to the barrier as it was this one that had been damaged. One of the male wardens who was stood at the barrier gestured to us in the most rude way, waving his arms about, and shouting at us to reverse back and get out of the way. He was unbelievably rude, yes there was a bit of pressure on but we did not deserve to be treated like that, we did nothing wrong and yet were meant to feel like naughty children. Terrible behaviour from a warden and it really put us off our stride... Apart from this, lovely site, fabulous area, nice clean facilities, just as you would expect from the CC.

Great Weekend

This was our first weekend staying staying at Clumber Park and we absolutely loved the site. The wardens were friendly and welcoming. We had a pitch near to the playground which the kids loved. We had a hard standing pitch and must say that the whole site had a great feel of space and not being crammed in considering the site is pretty large. All facilities were nice and clean. Obviously it goes without saying that you're in prime position for exploring Clumber Park (if your not a national trust member you just need to show your caravan site key fob for free access). We would recommend having fish and chips from the van that's on site on Friday nights.... the whole family had a great time and the dog walk is the best i've ever been to on a site. Will defiantly be returning again soon.

What a fantastic site. We had a week of mixed weather, but we put on the waterproofs and did plenty of walking for the first two days. The next few days dry, So out came the cycles, Great place for cycling and walking. The site and the wardens are just great, We will be back and honestly cant wait. YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED...

Autumn weekend

First visit to this site- normally avoid CC sites as they tend to be very busy- however, we were lucky (given some of the other reviews) with very few loud children on site. In fact, we had a very peaceful weekend (3 nights) on site, despite it being almost full. The shower facilities were excellent and very well maintained- with friendly warden and assistant wardens. The walks around Clumber Park were excellent- and despite the lovely weather (and hoards of visitors) we found plenty of peace and quiet. We will return- probably in winter, to take into account the changing seasons.

1st timers

This was our first Caravan Club trip in our newly acquired Motorhome. The site was easy to find and once in Clumber Park getting to the site was good as signposts delivered us there. The staff were friendly and took their time to explain everything to us in great detail. What we didn't realise was that we could enter the park, take our vehicle to their carpark free of charge as the Caravan Club site would not allow us to leave our Motorhome on one of their parking places once we had to leave out pitch. That was a bit annoying, but with the Clumber Park carpark available to Caravan Club members was not a problem. We will be revisiting this site again in the future, well recommended.

Shower Blocks

Why are half the showers, on both sides, locked? It was necessary to stand in a queue to await a vacancy to take a shower, when other showers were available but locked and unaccessable. Unsatisfactory explanation from warden. Could it be that it's quicker and easier to clean ten than twenty?

Motorhome facilities

Our second visit this year and very pleasant indeed. I would though like to see a motorhome service point that caters for vans with the drainage outlets on the near side. Due to the one way traffic system here it is not possible to empty my grey water tank via a short pipe into the drain as you have to approach the facility with the off side nearest the drain. On our first visit I emptied into the grey water drain nearest the reception which is on the correct side but the male warden wasn't too pleased for whatever reason ??? I spoke to a couple more owners on site with the same problem. No doubt the CC will sort it in due course. Other than that we will return again to this superb site.
