One night only.

Stayed for one night on our way South. We were on an economy non EHU positioned beside the pathway around the race course, and right near the park entry/exit. It was fine for one night but due to the position had people walking very closely along either side of the van so little privacy. Facilities were warm and clean, easy access to town centre, and a warm welcome from the wardens. Would stay again if next in the area, but probably opt for an EHU pitch even though we don't need it.

Overnight Stay

A great location for an overnight stay. Efficient admission with instructions as we arrived late the office was shut. Good, clean toilet block - can't comment on the shower as not used. Easy to access the dog walk. Quiet overnight. Would stay again.

Great stop over location

Our first year of motor-homing and found this site to be the perfect location to break our journey north / south. Easy access from M40. Really nice site layout with good choice of pitch types. Great options for dog walking direct from the site as well as short walk into the town for supplies and eating options - as well as the castle. Site hosts (Sally & Steve during our visit) were really friendly & helpful and made sure the facilities were immaculate. Going to be frequent visitors; next stopover already booked!

Great site in the centre of Warwick

We spent one night on an economy pitch without electric hook up which was along side the footpath around the racecourse. Had a lovely quiet night and site facilities are clean and warm. Very friendly staff and altogether a great site.

Pitch perfect

Nothing to dislike about the site and choice of pitches. We chose non awning and found a lovely position at the back of the site furthest away from the racing track. We would have been as happy on the front tarmac area all the same or on any of the grass pitches. In my opinion, there was every kind of pitch available to suit every need. The wardens were friendly, hard working and very approachable. The motorhome service point wasn't situated in the easiest of places and we had to turn our outfit around to use the waste drain. I hope this will be updated to a drive over grid at some pont. We walked some 8 miles there and back from the site to Hatton Locks. Warwick itself sadly I thought was soulless. There was no atmosphere in the town but a caveat to that was the history and architecture which we found interesting and beautiful. We did walk to the castle but didn't go in as the carpark was heaving with coaches and we didn't fancy battling with crowds of people. We were lucky to experience a day, well afternoon at the races and it was nice to be amongst fellow camc members enjoying the atmosphere without leaving the site. We would happily visit the site again and maybe use it as a base to visit more of the area as I believe public transport is very good for Stratford upon Avon and Royal Leamington Spa.

A great place!

We love this site and have returned many times. It is ideally located for visiting places of interest and has a number of eateries within a reasonable walking distance. An added bonus is the horse racing, on race days! Fab site, in a fab location!

Lovely Jubbly

What a little gem. Lovely, helpful and cheerful staff. Great pitch by the racecourse, with lovely views. A beautiful, medieval town a short walk away. Fantastic dog walk outside the gate. For us, perfect. We will definitely be back. Could write a book but how boring is that !! Go and see for yourselves.

August bank holiday stay

Arrived later than planned a sign directed us to the laundry room where we picked up a pack of info about the site and our pitch number. Our first pitch was 39 which unfortunately was behind the toilet block which meant we could hear the door banging and the hand dryers frequently. We'd extended our stay from our original booking of a pitch with awning but had to have a non-awning pitch on our first and last nights due to the site being quite full. Met the wardens Jo and Malc the next day, They were lovely, very chatty, friendly and accommodating. They tried hard to enable us to stay on our awning pitch for our final night but were unable to do so due to the site being so full. Site was clean and tidy, surprisingly quiet and peaceful with lots of open space. It says no dog walk but although not officially on the site itself there was a long flat path that went all round the racecourse with access paths across the track to a woodland area and the canal with loads of bins dotted around handy for dog walkers. The path was great for cycling or running as well. The facilities were not modern but were very clean. In the ladies there were 3 showers and 2 sinks with privacy curtains. The showers were hot and powerful. However as the shower curtains had been removed the area by the door in the cubicle got very wet and it was hard to get dressed and keep things dry. Most campers seemed to be older people, with only one or two families. There was no playpark or anything for children but loads of space around the racecourse for them to play on bikes etc. Warwick was a 5-10 min walk from the site as was the castle, lots of little shops, dog friendly cafes and pubs , a car hire place and a Sainsbury's. Sunday lunch at the Tilted Wig pub was good as was breakfast outside the cafe at Hatton locks watching narrowboats navigate the locks. On the Saturday night there happened to be an outdoor cinema event on at the racecourse. It was held in the field behind the site - just a short walk around the hedge with our camp chairs. We could also see the fireworks from the castle in the evenings. One day we drove to Diddly Squat, Jeremy Clarkson's farm which was about 45 mins away. My advice would be get there early! It opened at 9:30 we arrived just before opening and queued for an hour. By the time we left the queue had at least doubled. On Bank holiday Mon we drove to Stratford-upon-Avon, used the park and ride which was efficient. But unfortunately and wished we hadn't bothered going as the town was really crowded with people. Would return during a quieter time as it looked like a lovely place. On the whole we thought this was a great site, perfect for motorhomes as there was a lot within walking distance. We'd definitely return.

Much better than expected

Arrived today and I have to admit, I was filled with trepidation after the reviews as I was expecting to be pitched up in a car park with no WIFI or TV reception which could have been an issue as I was taking a few days out without my wife as she was working so though i was in for a few nights staring at the stars. I arrived early (13:10) and had booked a hard standing without awning pitch which after a very swift entry process and polite service, was told any pitch with a blue square, expecting them all to be in the tarmac area mentioned in previous reviews. There were quite a few blue pitches scattered around the site and I managed to secure a great well spaced pitch on gravel away from the race course. After playing around with the aerial I managed to pick up all the main tv channels by pointing it west so suggest getting your compass app out in your phone. Agreed, there isn't WiFi but I had a really good phone signal so was also able to stream Netflix etc. The site is small but well maintained and remarkably quiet being so central to Warwick. Loads of bars and restaurants with 10 mims walk and a fantastic dog walk area on your door step behind the site although the site didn’t have its own dog walking facilities. No facilities for kids and it did feel more like an adults only site with no play areas so something to be aware of. A great site but I would suggest getting here early to get a good pitch as I doubt I would have enjoyed staying in the tarmac area.
