We have just returned from 4 nights at Greendale and agree with all the previous comments. The site is wonderful - so quiet and in wonderful countryside surroundings. If you are looking for peace and quiet this is definitely the place (although there are lots of lambs and sheep in neighbouring fields at this time of year!). The small shop is well stocked with essentials - better than others we have visited - and also local produce.
The owners take great pride in the service they provide - they laid on celebratory drinks for everyone on the site for a 57th wedding anniversary.
The only thing that could possibly be improved is another toilet cubicle for men, but otherwise the facilities are excellent and before we left we booked another stay.

We had never visited this campsite before and we are sorry we did not know about it before. We have been touring the UK and Europe for over 30 years and this is the best site we have ever been to. The location is beautiful and the welcome outstanding.
The bird life is incredible and it is so peaceful. It is a small site, non smoking and adult only. There is a small swimming/plunge pool and each pitch is lovely. There are limited but immaculately clean facilities (shower, toilets and sinks). There is a shop and incredible tourist information. There are books, maps and guides available, even BBQs, bikes and binoculars as well. The village of Whissendine is about a miles walk and well worth it. There are two pubs and a very welcoming Mace shop which sells an amazing range of locally sourced food.
If you love bird life, want a peaceful break and want to meet the friendliest most helpful owners you are likely to encounter this is the site for you. Oakham, Stamford and Melton Mowbray are nearby, as well as Rutland Water and many other attractions.

Having bought our first touring caravan 1 hour earlier, We chose Greendale for our very first experience based on quality and proximity to my daughter and granddaughter. We certainly chose right! Our hosts were terrific and they even helped Lorraine to find an NHS dentist in nearby Oakham to treat and remove some of her wisdom! The site ambience was faultless and the facilities top class. Our Labrador Darcy and 20 year old siamese cat Cindy settled in splendidly to their new surroundings and our fortnight's stay was a great induction to new adventures ahead. There's a very good pub in Whissendine offering home made pub grub fayre and, real ale and fine wine all at reasonable prices. Our thanks also to fellow 'vanners' John & Janet, Des & Diane, Richard & Allison and Paul and his wife for lending helping hands and hospitality during our stay. We will definitely return during our UK visits.

I had arranged a days fishing on Rutland Water and required a convenient camp site nearby, as it transpired 'Greendale' is some eight miles away from the trout, but this oversight turned out to be a stroke of good fortune as the site is one of the most tranquil and best kept I have ever encountered.
If you approach the site from Oakhampton the entrance is partially hidden and can easily be missed. Once inside the gate you are immediately aware that a great deal of TLC has been administered in all areas.
Bearing in mind my stay was in the twilight of the 'Holiday' season the hardstanding pitches were all neat and tidy the grass areas between and around the pitches had not been cut they were manicured with flower beds that would not look out of place at 'chelsea'
The toilet blocks were well cared for with hot water in abundance and available 24/7. There was also a small shop on site with a number of essential items available at reasonable prices; this area also provided washing and drying facilities with an information 'board' that told you everything you would ever need to know about the site and the surrounding area, where to go, where to eat and how to get there
All in all a first class site cared for by a professional team with exceptionally high standards.

Simply the prettiest site we have stayed on. Its owners really have everything perfect. Lovely clean loos and shower. Lots of information, washing machine and small shop. Spacious pitches with lovely views and Countryside. The site is located down a small Country lane just 6 miles from Oakham. And 4 miles from Melton Mowbray. An adults only site. The site is covered in flowers and the owners even grow there own herbs which we were given whilst we stayed.
Highly recommended. We will be back.

Our second visit to this lovely small (only 13 pitches) and very well kept adults only site. Hardstanding on all pitches but we were given a pitch with pea gravel and as we had a footprint under our ZIG it was not a problem and the ZIG was very clean when we came to leave.
Owners are very friendly and although there is only one shower each for ladies and gents because the site is so small it was rarely a problem. They were kept immaculately clean.
The White Lion pub in the nearby village (20 minute pleasant walk) is run by an Indian couple and does the best Indian food we have ever had.
We were also blessed with lovely weather for the most part whilst we were there which was a bonus as the area is lovely.
We did the walk around the Hambledon peninsular which is about 7 miles long and a fairly easy walk and gives spectacular views of Rutland Water.
Gates garden centre in Cold Overton is well worth a visit and has a lovely cafe.
Foxton Locks on the Grand Union Canal is about 20 miles away but is well worth a visit.
We can thoroughly recommend this site.
