Lovely site but Inconsiderate vanners

Very friendly relief wardens. Lovely wooded site with lovely walks. Stamford Oakham and Oundle all worth a visit. No toilet block but no big deal. The biggest disappointment are inconsiderate vanners who constantly thought it was acceptable to walk thru peoples pitches just to save a few steps. Dog owners who persist in using long leads with no intention of walking there dogs off site but any piece of grass whether it’s in front of someone else’s can … even if they’re eating supper.. let their dogs toilet. Many openly using their own pitches as a dog toilet.. but we’ve cleaned up… of course that makes it all okay. No regards for those using pitch after them. It’s becoming an acceptable practice on CAMC & a disgusting one. Shame on you!

A week filled with sunshine

After a dreadful washout during most of May, it was such a wonderful week filled with warmth, sunshine and tranquility. We have been to Stamford before after a long, protracted lockdown and as previously, the site and the area didn't disappoint. Some great tracks to ride your bike through. Wonderful woodland to explore for both adults and children alike. The pitches are a good size and the site has a garden feel due to the mature trees and bushes that break up the pitches. For the first time ever with the CMHC we were allocated a pitch number, the reasons for which got slightly lost on translation. Felt the wardens could have been a little less frosty in giving an explanation. Fortunately, all's well that ends well.

Very peaceful and well maintained site

We stayed here for a few days as a family of 3. We absolutely loved it. Very quiet and well located for walks in the forest. The site is easy to access off the A43 and is right next door to the Forestry Commission Visitor Centre with fully appointed Café, Toilets and bike hire should you want it. There are great kids activities (playgrounds within very close walking distance and a Gruffalo Trail with a 7ft carved Gruffalo to welcome any little people who may want to fid him! Staff were friendly and helpful as we always find. A great stay and one we would return to without hesitation

Fantastic site

One of our favourite sites, set in Fineshade woods. Site is well maintained, wardens very cheery and helpful. Great walks in the woods, hubby was lucky enough to see the deer while on the early morning dog walk. Delicious ice cream at Grounds coffee shop next door & Stamford market on Friday is not to be missed. Looking forward to our return visit in July.

Great experience

So pleased we chose this site for our first club experience. The wardens were incredibly friendly and helpful even making sure we were okay after our first night. We really couldn’t fault them or the site. It was clean and tidy with the addition of sanitiser at the Motorhome service station. We loved the site and the pitch which Paul suggested was ideal for our needs though you did need ramps. We bought the small local map and although we didn’t use it this time we will definitely be returning here. There was no children’s play area which I guess may have been a bit of a downside for the families that were there but it did mean that the site was mainly adults and hence extremely quiet.

Lockdown release Monday 12th April 21

Had booked this site online a few months before, fortunately for us Boris allowed campsites to reopen on the first day of our chosen break. The warden called us a few days before to take payment and asked if we would prefer hard standing or a grass pitch and then gave us a few pitches to choose from, discussing where they were etc. We also agreed an arrival time slot. Upon arrival we were greeted by a friendly male warden (sorry didn't catch either wardens names ) and given a welcome pack in a plastic wallet with the site information and latest Covid guidelines, he explained where our pitch was and information regarding the pack, track and trace etc. Pitch 13 was perfect, hard standing, sun at the front of van for most of the day, close to service points and not far from the gate that enters the woodland. Did need levelling blocks. Considering this was the first day of release from lockdown the site did not feel busy or noisy. The site was well maintained, bins emptied regularly and the service points were sanitised regularly too (hand sanitizer provided at service points). Different lengths of walking and cycling routes sign posted through the woodland. Cycle hire, tea room and children's play area at entrance to woodland carpark. Plenty of places to visit near by. One to visit again.

Thank you

What a year it’s been, however I’d like to say a massive thanks to Paul and Gill for an excellent recovery from the pandemic. The warmth and friendliness was outstanding. You really made a massive difference to a very difficult time. You made a real relaxing difference to my front line working. Paul newbery.

Return to the Stamford Gem

Just back from a superb week at Stamford Fineshade site. The site is extremely well maintained & run, site set in glorious wooden parkland, the wardens do a sterling job no wonder many members return. With several walks directly from the site it's a walkers paradise & the dogs love it too. Our October week for next year is already booked. A short drive from Stamford with super shopping & many other local attractions. We think this is one of the best sites on the club's circuit & definitely one of our top six.

Fantastic Restful Week

Thank you Gill for a splendid weeks break, just what we needed, nothing to do, nowhere we needed to go or be, just sit back and relax. Loved your husbands chalkboard sayings. Shame about all that rain but certainly cleared the air, water drained away very quickly and the sun shone on us all, magic. On our way home now and back to normal, until next time. Thank you

Good spot

Central location for rutland water,stamford,peterborough.well kept site with Friendly wardens,plenty doing locally of you enjoy walks and cycling. As previously mentioned,”no visitors” but some are ignoring this rule. The club also need to look at arrival / departure times such as off by noon and no arrivals til 13:00.it was farcical when we arrived with at least 6 units arriving simultaneously and meeting units leaving bang on noon and blocking access roads for all...the access road is also narrow with passing places . Will return next year hopefully
