Standards are as high as ever

I wrote back in september last year that this site had become one of our 'go-to' sites and I see no reason to change that comment having just spent another couple of nights here. Clean, quiet and friendly this place sets the bar very high on standards. Grafham Water is a lovely area, we tend to park down at Perry in our motorhome and walk from there, it is quieter than the other 2 parking lots and has a lovely cafe overlooking the water. Frankly I don't know how many times we have stayed here but once or twice a year it makes a super 2 night stop for us in our motorhome.

Superb site!

We stayed here at short notice and the staff went out of their way to accommodate an extra night for us. The site had the most immaculate and cleanest toilets/showers we’ve ever experienced and the site itself was superbly maintained. The staff made sure the campers were all happy as they did the rounds checking in with everyone. We’ve never seen staff this attentive before so all praise to them. On top of that we discovered the local shop and pub, both of which fulfilled our needs! The staff and the site made our stay simply brilliant…

Excellent site.

The site is well looked after and handy for local walks particularly around Grafham water or through Brampton wood. It is also a short walk to an excellent Indian restaurant which we enjoyed for a meal on our wedding anniversary. The site wardens Julie and Andrew are top notch, they are very friendly and helpful and couldn't do enough to help you. They made our stay even more enjoyable and it was well worth the journey down the M6 & A14 from the North West.

Excellent site 5 stars from me

We are regular visitors to this site it is absolutely wonderful. We have been Campervaning for a few years now and I have to say the site is in my top two. Why not number one ? Ok it is joint first. A well run site which is clean and tidy. We normally go to adults only sites however the Wardens make sure that everything is quiet by 10pm and children are kept under control. Things to do: we don’t do much other than sit in our van and relax with a glass or two of wine. We do however make frequent the excellent local community pub which is only a short walk away. 5 stars from me

Love this site!

I absolutely love Grafham Water site, can’t say that about my Golden Retriever though, she is scared of loud noises, the local farmers have gas poppers going every half an hour which is loud my Goldy thinks it’s a firework and was petrified. The first time we came we had to cut out break short because of this as my Goldy was so scared, I have returned many times on my own without her. We came again a few weeks ago and completely forgot about the noise until we had set up, we were only there for a quick 2 nights away, it didn’t start until the Saturday morning, we kept her in the caravan so she alcohols to hear it, but will only return again when I’m on my own. On the other hand this site is ideal for walkers and families, it has a park and is so close to Grafham water which is a 9 mile circular walk, with lots of water sports and a lovely park and cafe. Also lots of walks from the site doing geo caching which is a great hobby of no one has tried it. (Google it!) Lovely clean showers and toilets, an Owl sometimes makes an appearance on the bird table in an evening.

Our ew favourite site

I think we have found our new favourite site. Great location. Fantastic walks. Brilliant place if you want peace and quite on site or off. Well done to the wardens for the hard work in keeping things clean. What lets it down, people who think they don't have to clean the shower out after they have used it (men and woman) but then, that's the same which ever site we go too, shame on you all. It takes a few seconds - leave as you expect to find. Anyway, well done wardens, on minimum wage, you do work hard. 10/10 Pete & Bev.

One of the best sites we've visited

We had a very warm welcome from Andrew and a very efficient check-in from Julie. The site is beautifully maintained and we had a lovely sunny hardstanding pitch (number 37). The site is very well maintained with a spotlessly clean facilities block. Julie and Andrew also had time to speak to everyone when they did their evening walk. Look out for the huge owl as well, - I didn't see him, but my husband did! Thank you from Mrs B!

Idyllic!

Arriving at Grafham Water is a joy in itself! A floral display at the entrance that would delight any gardener, it was both colourful and welcoming. Checking-in was simple and efficient with Dawn suggesting the best locations. We followed her advice and opted for a hard-standing pitch for the first time. It was perfectly level and so the levelling boards remained in the bag! Throughout our stay, Carl and Dawn were always to be seen interacting with campers and dealing with any issues/queries/requests. Our issue with our gas supply was quickly identified by Carl as a faulty regulator and he arranged for an engineer to replace it the next day. This was terrific Customer Care. The site was beautifully maintained and the facilities were superb. Beyond the site is Grafham Water with its 10 mile cycle track around it. There is a Visitors Centre and the Harbour Bar that offer refreshments whilst on the circuit. We chose the site for the cycling paths and we made much use of them. Brampton is a nearly community that has a good pub with an impressive menu. Other reviewers have commented on the facilities in the village of Grafham itself. A 'library' at the site entrance is packed with lots of helpful information on places to visit, walking and cycling routes, where to eat etc. In summary, this was without doubt the most perfect site we have stayed at. The ambiance, the lay-out, the care taken by the Wardens made it an idyllic stay for us. The location lived up to our hopes by enabling us to enjoy hours of cycling. This site is a jewel in the crown for the Caravan and Motorhome Club. Thank you, Dawn and Carl!
