We (me hubby and Two kids) took our camplet to this campsite in the Beginning of May and had a fantastic time. They have a great play park that is visible from most tent pitches that the kids loved.
Toilet blocks were always clean and the newer block behind the main toilets were fantastic with communal family showers which is great when you have young kids.
The leisure facilities are great. We used the swimming and although small was clean and kept the kids happy. Night time disco was a big hit and the DJ (Daryle) was excellent with the children. We ate in the pub and it was good pub grub at a decent price. The shop was also good value which was surprising as I feel most campsite shops charge over the odds.
All in all a great weekend away and we will return.

Been reading previous reviews and don't entirely agree with them, I have been to this site 4 times now and would recommend it to anyone with young children.
The play park is ideal and easily seen from any of the tent pitches, staff helpful and the club was suitable for its purpose, I don't know why people are saying its dated and needs painting.
Booked to go back next week.

First time we have been to thurston manor site. Men's toilets/showers are small & could do with updating & a lick of paint. Only 3 toilets & showers.
Club house is like a working men's club, could do with a good revamp.
The wardens seemed to be riding around in a transit van checking on van locations & who had awnings up etc. Why can't they walk around the site instead of in an annoying diesel transit van! The roads are right outside your caravan so it's most annoying!
Hard standings have no grass next to them, it's all gravel for caravan & awning. So we never bothered with awning. Got a refund on that.
Site shop is good, has all the basics. Pool is small but ok.
I saw big dogs like alsation size roaming about on the park, not acceptable really, just lazy owners letting there responsibilities go elsewhere.
Site is good for golfers quite a few good courses in surrounding areas, so transport is essential.
The weather wasn't too bad, had rain during the night but daytime was fine.
Tv reception is good, no problems in tuning our tv in.

Easy to find and easy, efficient check in rather than friendly.
Booked a super pitch on this site and glad we did.
Water pipes seemed quite far for other campers and ground was not always flat. Super pitches had gravel standing, good for the rain that came this week.
Ladies toilets were clean, shower was free. Key for access to toilets required £5 deposit and key for ladies was dodgy sometimes turning round in lock for ages.
The key system seemed over the top, as it is unlikely that people other than those camping would be using the facilities.
The cost of the pool should be included in the site fee, kids didn't use it as they were not allowed in bubble pool. But for adults each activity added extra cost.
Bar area prices were good.
Disapointed that £5 tickets each were required for the turn on Saturday night, therefore we declined to watch.
Wardens were often to be seen during the evening time
Overall the site was okay but I'd expect more for a 5 star rating. I'd give it a 3.
Nearby area is quite although there is a large supermarket less than 4 miles from the site. Local village has no shop or pub but is a nice walk.
Far enough from the A1 so no road noise, would not visit again though

1st camping trip ever. Plastic pegs on montana not good on very solid ground - now need to purchase new set of pegs. Pitch size too small for montana 6 plus awning which was our online booking; in fact almost too small for tent alone although described as a pitch for a large family tent.
Ladies toilets were clean; mens not so much. Key for access to toilets required £10 deposit and key for ladies could take up to 5 minutes to open as lock was dodgy.
Playground much loved by our 2 girls (age 4 and 9) and easily visible from furthest away tent pitch.
Pool extremely disappointing for cost - showers in pool area not working. The cost of the pool should be included in the site fee - or the fee should be cheaper.
Bar area was outdated but okay and prices were good.
Kids club not great and if your child was under 6 you had to stay.
Wardens were much in evidence on our first night when the site was practically empty but couldn't see any on our second when a large group arrived to party (loudly) until midnight.
Family showers very good but unfortunately no lighting working in one of them. Toilets and dishwashing facilities are (very oddly) closed for cleaning between 8am-8. 30am
Overall the site was okay but I'd expect everything to be working at the start of the season - it wasn't. We'd selected this site as it had an AA fab rating. I'd not agree with them - a 3 star would cover it for me.

This was my first visit to Thurston Manor and I was pretty impressed.
'Check-in' was nice and quick, then a very short drive up to the pitch.
Ground was seemed to be pretty stony underneath, but I had a bunch of rock pegs with me, which took care of that.
Great facilities on site - well stocked shop which was pretty reasonably priced
Toilets and shower block nice and clean, not too busy, so can't ask for more than that
Leisure facilities were great (pool, gym, sauna, steam room), though a wee bit disappointed they weren't included in the price of the pitch, but never mind. Great park for the kids to play in with the equipment looking nice and safe.
2 bars, a restaurant a function room and a kids room meant no shortage of things to do in the evening if you fancied a beer or something to eat.
It's a big busy park, so you could hear some noise at night, either from other tents or people leaving the pub, but it wasn't noisy and people are on holiday after all.
Wouldn't hesitate to go back or to tell people we had a great time
