Friendly helpful wardens and fabulous walks
Stayed for 5 nights on my own with the dogs this August before the bank holiday. Plenty of pitches to choose from, although nearer the bank holiday it did get busy. Very peaceful, I wasn't pitched too close to the play area so the kids didn't bother. It is a great site for kids of all ages as the play area is one of the best I've seen. During the day it is peaceful enough for the children to ride their bikes along the roads around the site. In fact my own nephew learnt to ride his bike here a couple of years ago, and the girl in the caravan adjacent to me learnt to ride her bike this time. Made me wonder how many children have learnt to ride their bikes here over the years. Such a lovely safe place to learn. I've read some negative reviews about the shower blocks, but honestly, apart from the wall tiles and laminate on the cubicle partitions and doors not being the current colours, it is absolutely fine. There are plenty of toilets, sinks and showers. I've read some negative reviews about the warden's attitudes, but honestly, they were all happy and welcoming. I had a problem with my caravan and all the wardens did their best to help me, they were really good.
The site is located within the park itself, so there are fabulous walks to be discovered and the dogs can be off their leads. There was a mobile Pizza van and Fish & Chip van visiting the site which made a nice change. Fish and Chips £6.50. I visited the Walled Garden and the Greenhouse (National Trust) and really enjoyed stepping back in time and walking through the greenhouse, worth a visit. I will definitely visit Clumber Park site again.
