We have stayed here many times in the past but usually just for overnight or once for a race meeting. This time we stayed longer and wish we hadn't.
On the positive side buses are close by to take trips out, Stratford upon Avon, Leamington Spa and Coventry and there is a pleasant walk up the Canal. The town is not far away but is now full of charity shops or cafes and has very little to offer but Sainsburys for essentials is 'just up the road'.
Many pitches have been upgraded but this has been done on the cheap, small pebbles over the pitch but no drain away facility, when we pitched there were two heavy thunderstorms and the water just collected under the stones and did not drain away it was just wet and soggy.
As the site is close to Brimingham airport there was a constant loud noise of aeroplanes, and there is a footpath behind the site, which is very noisy.
The facilities are very poor offering only three showers and two curtained washbasins (in the Ladies) for a site offering 56 pitches, and in common with so many CC&M sites the shower cubicles are very small.
I would query why this site is more expensive than others as it does not warrant this, only good for an overnight or one full day before moving on.

Posted on 18/09/2022 15:30 by TinwheelerIt’s a racecourse site and not owned by the club. Maintenance and alterations will likely be in the hands of the racecourse and not CAMC. Prices will depend in part on how much the club has to pay to lease the site.
