Spent a nice couple of nights here. Our first time at the site. We were impressed by the location within a stroll of the village, and also the spotless toilet and shower facilities. The site appeared to be well run. The site will be a little better landscaping-wise when it matures, but I wouldn't hestitate in going back.
We camped in the field adjacent to the main area, and only heard the church clock at night once all weekend.

What a great campsite. I think this campsite has only been in existence for 2 - 3 years and the owner told me this was the bussiest they had been to date....and I'm not surprised as word of mouth must be spreading how good this one is!
We had a very friendly and warm welcome by the owner and were allowed to choose our own pitch. The facilities are good as they are new (and well looked after), the toilets and washroom facilities were all very clean and tidy (with piped music too!). The owners realise that they need to provide additional washroom facilities and have a planning application in to allow them to build a new block and new reception area.
Other reviewers have mentioned the church bells chiming every hour. I'm sure they did but we were in the top field and the wind was obviously in the wrong direction for us to hear them regularly.
The village of Greetham offers pubs and a shop within 5 to 10 minutes walk. we thought the food in The Plough was really good value.
The next village Cottersmore offers a Fish & Chip shop and slightly larger village shop but we went to the lovely town of Oakham where there is obviously a greater choice of shops.
Back to the campsite, we chose this site for its relatively close location to Rutland Water. We had a couple of trips to Rutland Water for walks and activities such as rock climbing!!
Overall we would recommend this campsite. It felt very safe as well if you have children. One last thing, although only a stones throw from RAF Cottersmore there was little noise from the Harriers and anyway they don't fly at weekends usually.

We visited over the Spring Bank Holiday Weekend after having read the other reviews on this site. Everything stated by everyone else is correct. The site was full but was still coping adequately with the numbers. The owner Paul and his wide are extremely frienfly and helpful.
We stayed on the tent field which is a little walk to the amenity block, but there was loads of space and our children enjoyed playing football, cricket, rounders etc with anyone else who would play.
Excellent meal at the Black Sheep, although a little pricey. Also eat at the Wheatsheaf which has more basic pub grub.
Go there! You'll have a great time.

We went on this site for Bank Holiday, it was great, pictures of the site on the website did not do it justice. It was so quiet, no road noise at all, very peaceful. The village is lovely and is only a 2 minute stroll, 3 pubs with great food and a nice atmosphere. If heading out for food make sure you are in the pub for 8.15pm latest as they do stop serving food before 9pm sometimes a little earlier, the nearest cash machine is in Oakham so make sure you have cash on you before you start on the beers. Would recommend!!!

Just been back for our second visit to this lovely site. Had a great weekend and then left my in-laws at the site for the week on their own. They also really loved the site and were impressed with the facilities and how clean and tidy they were kept. The sandpit had caused children to leave dirty marks on the walls over the bank holiday weekend, the wardens quickly painted during the week and when we came back to collect the caravan the toilets were back to their pristine condition. Tried "The Sun" pub in Cottesmore this time, lovely food and very friendly atmosphere.

We chose this site for our first ever camping trip, and certainly made the right choice. The site was kept very nice. It was all flat and well drained. The shower and toilet block were kept very clean, condidering it was Bank Holiday and was almost full. There was only 3 showers in the Ladies and Mens, but there didnt seem too much of a que for them, but there were signs up saying that they are hoping to build another block soon. The site was located next to a very nice little village with three nice pubs. The owners of the site were also very welcoming and approachable.
Our only gripe with this site, which I am surprised hasn't been mentioned before, was the village church clock which is very close to the site. It bongs every hour all day and night (once for 1 oclock, twise for 2 oclock etc. etc.), and if you are a light sleeper, it can keep you up all night. But that certainly should not put you off the site as everything else was so nice.

Very nice campsite, very friendly warden who gave me a pitch away from the famaily pitches which was very welcome as I had cycled to the site from Oxfordshire and was very tired. Toilets were very impressive with large self contained cubicles and very clean. Facilties for waste, water and washing up were also of a high standard. The only negative thing was the church bells which chimed on the hour throughout the night and were quite close. The site appear very secure with electric gates with the warden was sited infront of the gate. On the whole this was a very impressive site and I will probably return with the family.

Just returned from the bank holiday weekend. Lovely, quiet site with very friendly warden who even offered to help us pitch our tent as we arrived in pitch black! Never heard any aircraft noise whilst we were there. Spotlessly clean toilet block (cleaned at least 3 times a day) - 3 showers and 4 toilets. They are planning another toilet/shower block in near future which will be welcome although only had to queue for a short while on one occasion. They are also planning to provide a play area to cater for older children. Even have a butcher who visits site on Tuesdays and an ice-cream van visited daily. Will definately be adding to my list of sites to return to.

Arrived at site and owners very friendly. Site is lovely and flat and well drained (as it poured down Saturday morning and ground was dry by the afternoon). Toilet block warm and clean, did have to queue for showers but it was a busy weekend. Owners kept apologising about the toilet and showers not being cleaned as often as usual but they were fine at all times we used them and they were in constant use.
Even though a bank holiday it didn't seem at all overcrowded and our children soon made friends with others. Small play area for children up to about 5 or 6 and there are plans for a play area for older children. Word of warning there is a large sandpit filled with dark red sand and my 2 were covered within 2 minutes as was the tent and all it contents!!!! (Mind you Aerial worked wonders).
Pleasant walk into village with 3 pubs and local shop (closed Saturday afternoons). We went to the Sun Inn in Cottesmore (next village) and it was excellent. We (11 of us) arrived 5 minutes before they stopped serving food but they were very welcoming and the food was excellent and very well priced.
Fantastic part of the country and we will definately be returning. All in all good weekend on a family friendly site.

Pretty good site , showers & toilets were very clean. The owner is a very nice gent who will help with any probs you have if any. The only drawback is the aircraft noise from the local airfield but this ceases about 7.00 pm There are 3 good pubs down the village & a great theme park for the under 11s about 20 min drive plus there's Rutland Water about 15 min drive - great for cycling & walking

Very quiet site for a long weekend of relaxation. Some areoplane noise on weekdays, but not that bad! Excellent facilities, lovely shower block very new, warm and clean "oodles" of hot water and free! Could do with some more shrubs for wind protection as the weekend we were there the wind was gale force and torrential rain! The site is well drained and lovely and flat for caravans. Three pubs in village just a walk through a small wooded area, one pub has a more expensive menu, but the Wheatsheaf has good pub food at good pub prices and a nice atmosphere. We will be back next summer as we enjoyed it so much.

What a fabulous site! There was a group of five of us and we were all able to camp next to each other. The site in my opinion does not resemble a car park lots of plants and hanging baskets and the toilets were cleaned on a regular basis. The village was lovely with three good pubs within a 10 minute walk, and Oakham was only a ten minute drive for a decent supermarket. I would definately go again, and give it 9/10.

Very nice well run and friendly site. Level ground and very nice toilet block with 3 very nice showers. Toilet block has radio playing, which was very nice whilst having a shower as it was easy listening music.
There is a pub within easy walking distance of the site which does nice meals.
I would definitely go to the site again.

Very convienient site, close to A1 and nr to Rutland Water and Barnsdale Gardens (a 'must see'). Site well laid out with level pitches. We had plenty of room as there were only 6 of us on site (mid-week). Dog walk close by which is handy when Rover has his legs crossed after a long journey! Site is fairly well maintained although could have done with some more shrubbery, planting as it does resemble a car park. Excellent security with wardens on the gate at all times.
Toilets were adequate but could have been cleaned more regularly; weren't cleaned at all during our 3 day stay. No privacy cubicles for washing. 4 showers + 4 toilets (ladies) a bit disproportionate. Only 2 'sit-downs' in Gents! I suppose we have been spoiled with other less-basic sites but we would return. We give this one 7/10.
