Excellent break at Clumber Park
There have been a number of bad reviews in the past few months at Clumber and having just returned from a weekend away thought we would share our experience. We are regulars to this site as it is local to us. The site was clean and the flowers on the reception area for this time of year were amazing. The grass areas were tidy and recently cut.
The welcome and the wardens have always been great. No complaints. The pitches are large and some or shady and quiet and some are sunny and in the middle of things.
The site doesn't have wifi or even mobile phone signal but this is easy to resolve. Simply walk out of the entrance to the end of the drive and turn left. Walk up the road for about 100yards up a small hill and you will not only get full signal but 4G! You also get it turning right at the end of the drive and walking back to Lime Tree Avenue and heading left back up towards the main entrance.
The toilet blocks are clean and we have never been short of hot water or had to queue, they are a little tired looking and perhaps could do with a refurb.
The play area looks fabulous for the kids but we don't use it. The dog walking and cycling around Clumber Park is second to none. There have been thefts for a long time and some recent ones that we know about but the wardens always ask if you have bikes and offer the lock up service.
It is a busy popular site and we can't wait for winter because people tend to stay at home and it is even more picturesque and relaxing when it is quiet. Hope this might help some people when thinking about visiting Clumber Park.
