Date of Visit: August 2011 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Lori-angelbear 8 reviews from this member

 Really enjoyed both our stays on this site, on the way up and back down our east coast trip. We were not booked, but the very friendly owners still squeezed us in on spare pitches, and were very helpful when we told them of our plans.

The toilets are immaculate. Pleased to see recycling facilities too.

We had no children or dogs with us, but I think there is plenty for them in the area with Pleasure Island along the road and dog walks on the beach.

We certainly would not hesitate to stay there again. I would say the only one thing that is lacking is a shop with basics, bread, milk, etc, that would round it off completely.

 The Showground caravan site is only small but a nice relaxing place to be and has many things around to keep the children entertained such as pleasure island family theme park, shops, boating lake, food restaurants, a train tjhat runs round the camp site to the centre of cleethorpes and clothes shops all near by. The facilities on the site are very good and very clean the pitches are very good sizes and big enough for a awning also a good length size. The showers are very clean they provide a mop in the showers to be cleaned after every person. They also offer things to use such as fridge, freezers, washing machine and many more. Overall I would say this site is very good even though there is not a lot for the children on it but enough outside of the site.

 Just come back from 3 day break on this site and really enjoyed it. The site is compact but you still get room for your own quiet space. Toilets and showers are nice and clean and the owners are friendly. Its in an ideal place for seeing the sites of Cleethorpes. Dogs can be walked on the beach behind the site. Theres a nice little pub at the end of the road in the railway station, and there's a cinema, kfc, mcdonalds and bowling alley over the road. Peasure Island is only a 5 minute walkaway along with McCormacks pub with family entertainment on.

Reviewer: CRDMC 5 reviews from this member

 It is very convenient for the miniature railway. Site provided a book of vouchers to local attractions, which gave a very good discount.

Walked into Cleethorpes the first evening and found a Tapas Bar on the cliff top before the pier, which made a pleasant change. Took the train the next day and explored.

Loos etc. Very clean, only slight problem was finding the wardens pitch when we arrived! As the site was nearly full, we couldn't find the pitch numbers which are mounted on the fence. They were actually in the opposite corner from the gate.

Enough room for children to play without annoying those of us without. The site is quiet at night and during the day only a little noise from people passing on the road to the beach and the tantalising whistle of the steam train.

 Just returned from a weekend here it was brilliant, the location is excellent and easy to find.

The toilet block & showers were clean with plenty of mirrors, also an electric point by the doors which is great for hairdryers & straighteners!

Although the campsite was full it didn't interfere with us in any way everyone had their own space, and was very quiet at night.

We definitely will be returning. The site is situated close to pleasure island and the town is within walking distance where you will find plenty of shops, pubs and entertainment, there's also a leisure centre close by.

Reviewer: Markaz 4 reviews from this member

 A good value for money site,well located especially for theme park and plenty of other bits like cinema,bowling ect.Certainly nicer part than town centre where shops & amusement places felt bit run down and tired nearer to the pier end of Cleethorpes.

It's basic site but amenities are kept clean and usable.

We was lucky with weather in our 2 night stay but a canopy over dish washing area would be useful if raining if an improvement could be made.

Noticed a disused public toilets bordering the site, would be useful addition to site if local council could sort out to add to facilities.

Reviewer: Dottiedart 24 reviews from this member

 This is the 3rd year running we have been for the Mayday holiday, but we were able to stay a whole week this time and thoroughly enjoyed it. The owners are very friendly and helpful and the showers are some of the best we have been in.

It's great not to have to use the car at all, its a fairly long walk into town or a very short bus ride. The all you can eat oriental buffet is about 5 mins walk and is excellent value.

Tesco is about 2 miles away so we find this site has everything you could need just to hand, especially the light railway right at the entrance that goes round one site of the site.

The only disappointment was the annual transport extravaganza on the Meridian Park next door, which has got smaller each year we have been and now charges for entrance, I don't know how much longer this can go on for, we used to come especially for this but its a very sad affair now.

Reviewer: Janet farnsworth 2 reviews from this member

 The toilets and showers was very clean and the owner are very friendly and helpful. The site could do with a few paths as when we went we had very heavy rain but there is plenty to do round the site. Good shops and fast food out lets but there is a good pub at the end of the street and it does very good food and there is a very nice chip shop. As you come out of the camp with a 5 min walk you are on the sea front there is a nature reserve on the sea front alsorts of different birds. It is well worth a visit we will be going again

Reviewer: Mikeandade 1 review from this member

 Been to this site loads of times started going June 2009, the site is clean and tidy Harry and Chris are really great and always on hand, close to local pubs, takeaways and the town centre.

Have recommended this site to lots of our friends, we tend to return 3 to 4 times a year.

Booked again for June next year, so popular could not get a pitch for any of the bank holidays next spring, own fault! should have called earlier

Reviewer: Jeddy 3 reviews from this member

 I went to the site on my own to escape, in the end for a period of three weeks.

I found that the toilets were clean, the site was well kept and the location was great. It was away from the main area of Cleethorpes so was quieter and felt more secure.

The amenities on the campsite are basic but it is close to the beach, takeaways, restaurants, pubs and 10 minutes away from a leisure centre.

The people who run the site are extremely pleasant and helpful and are strict about noise levels late at night. The people on the site were also v friendly, so much so that I returned with my friends before the site closed.

I will definitely return to the site and plan to return when it opens this year

Reviewer: WillieBob 1 review from this member

 Although the site is a mile or so from the main town the walk into town is pleasant. That said there are eating drinking and entertainment facilities very close by, so there isn't necessarily a need to go into town.

The camp itself is basic but has all the essentials - hook-ups,hot water,shower blocks and pot washing facilities all of which are kept clean.

My only criticism would be that around 10/11pm every night the local boy-racers converge on a nearby car park which I found to be a bit of a nuisance.

A good no-frills campsite.

Reviewer: Gertie2010 2 reviews from this member

 I had to comment because someone posted about OLD caravans. What difference does it make?

We visited the Showground caravan park. It was basic. I wouldn't leave my camping stuff out, but that was my personal choice.

As to the age of caravans, does it really matter? You pay for what you get. I will definitely come back here when it's not the school hols. It was ok. The people who own it are lovely.

The surroundings are ok. Probably will be better if you don't go in the school holidays.

The location is perfect. We saw the Alamo show and the Cleethorpes Carnival.

The only thing I would warn about is that the women who block the toilet door way, whilst crimping their hair, thinking you should apologise to them for being in the way. May be the mirrors should be moved from the main entrance?

 We just came back from staying three nights on this site we stayed in a tent for the first time when we got there the owners were really helpful and showed us to our pitch they also lent us a hammer and offered us spare tent pegs if we needed them. We called on them a few times and they were very helpful.

The toilet block was clean and the showers were very spacious there was also a family shower separate which came in very handy after a day at the beach with the kids. They have also sorted out the problem of the side road as they now have road blocks at night and we didn't hear any noise at all. The campsite itself was well run and we felt very safe at night.

There is a lovely cafe just outside the gates where you can get a good breakfast and there are also shops nearby and a tesco about 10mins away by car. The owners also have all kinds of discount vouchers for al the local attractions which actually saved us a fortune. We will definitely be back next year we enjoyed our stay tremendously.

 Just returned from 3 nights here and it was a lovely little campsite with everything needed at hand. The owners were lovely and very helpful, we unfortunately arrived on a day where the weather men said we received as much rain in that day than was expected for the month but the owners helped us out by giving us brushes to get started. The sites location is brilliant a short walk form shops, pub and restaurants all you can eat Chinese/Indian highly recommended right out of the front gates and its about 200m up on your right. Thought the shower block and washing facilities were very clean and the price for the stay was very reasonable. Overall I would recommend this site to anyone if you get the right weather it would be very enjoyable.

Reviewer: Jamesnat15 1 review from this member

 Just come back from showground been there for the weekend had a brilliant time didn't want to leave and loved the site, shower blocks were great really spacious and clean all the time. We had lots of room around us and it's brilliant for families and couples as there is a really nice pub at the bottom of the site and lots of friendly campers.

There was a bit of noise on Sunday due to an event in park next to us for the younger end, but no trouble at all and was over by 10 o'clock. Lovely couple who own the site really friendly and very helpful. Dogs are very much welcome on or off leads and our dog made lots of friends.

I will definitely be recommending this site to friends and family and I will be returning in September for another weekend with the rest of the family this time
