 Tricky one this, because on the one hand it ticked so many boxes but in reality fell short on others.
We wanted a site that offered pitches next to a lake. We both fish and get a bit fed up of dragging gear to a lake on the other side of the site. So from that point of view the site cant be faulted. The pitches are literally feet from the lake edge. Huge pitches, 2 fishing platforms on each, electric and water. The lake and the fish are in good condition which is also a plus.
We went with friends, pitches next to each other and did enjoy good weather and a couple of lovely nights drinking wine by the waters edge. Very nice indeed.
The toilet/shower facilities are good albeit there are only 2 of each but we never had to queue or wait.
However on the downside, the site looks a bit scruffy and a bit uncared for.
The pitches whilst big are poorly maintained, the road around the site is again poorly maintained, the waste/recycling area is a disaster (don't think it was emptied/cleared in 4 days we were there), the dog waste bin near to us wasn't emptied in the 4 days we were there either, the whole site just looks scruffy. There is no attention to detail at all.
The surrounding area though is worth a visit, Market Harborough is a lovely market town and a visit to Foxton Locks (20 mins) is a must.
So whilst the site satisfied in 1 way its let down in so many others.

This site is in a perfect location surrounded by countryside and very peaceful. If you like walking there is a disused railway which is now a public footpath that is next to the site with lovely walks into Market Harborough (half hour) and neighbouring villages. We stayed on a lakeside pitch which is exactly what it says, just a couple of strides away from the lake. The fishing pegs are private to the pitch and my husband caught plenty. The lakeside pitches are enormous, include fishing and are fully serviced. The site is dog friendly. And now for the BAD POINT - The toilets and showers were dirty on arrival and were not cleaned during the five days we were there.. There were no hand towels in 3 out of 4 of the toilet/shower units. The bins overflowed with rubbish. The floors were very dirty. One of the ladies showers was not controllable, took 10 minutes to get warm water which then went to very hot and freezing cold without touching the dial. By the time we left the toilets were extremely dirty - toilet brushes were available but no bleach/cleaning fluid. Based on comments by other guests this was the norm. Such a shame as everything else was good.

This was our second visit to this site to visit people in the area. It consists of 3 separate areas- a small family area away from the lakes, the other 2 are adult only and are overlooking the fishing lake or around the fishing lake. There are also 2 log cabins. I don't think there was a children's play area. The site itself is spacious enough with large hard standings but we felt that not enough care was given to the hard standings - there were weeds growing through. Also the grass around some of the seasonal caravans needed to be cut right back. We were overlooking the lake and certainly needed our blocks as on quite a slope. The shower rooms could do with a spring clean. They consist of a shower, toilet and basin in each room, 2 for ladies and 2 for men. Plenty of room for getting changed. There is also a separate toilet for both male and females. For a site of that size I would expect a couple more showers as could see it getting very busy and having to queue. There is a small pitch and put on site but that was in need of having the grass cut. They do recycling on site but it's not very clear which collection box was for which. The bins area wasn't adequate for the size of site and basically they needed emptying more than once a day. There is a lovely cafe on site which catered for breakfasts and lunches. Very reasonably priced and food was very nice. There is also a craft shop on site that hired bikes out but that wasn't open at all during our stay. Staff and owners were very pleasant and helpful. In the 3 days we were there however we didn't see anyone working on the site apart from emptying the bins first thing.
Location of the site is brilliant. Just over 2 miles outside of Market Harbourgh and can be reached by walking along the disused railway. The town itself has a lovely range of shops and cafes.
All in all we would certainly visit again but feel that so much more can be done as this site has the potential to be a 5 star site.

Stayed on one of the lakeside pitches, which have electric water and grey waste on each pitch. Pitch was very large. View of the lake was lovely. Took a bike ride both up and down the Brampton way, easy riding, don't forget your torch for the tunnels though!.
Cafe was good, drinks and a warm panini was lovely.
Downsides. Sit a little run down, grass could be kept better, and the shower block needed the cobwebs removing, and the pedal bins cleaning out more often. The waste/rubbish area wasn't adequate for all the vans on the site, needs to be better kept.
Tea room was closed by 5 pm on the Sunday, and the craft shop wasn't open at all during our stay.
Easy access to the site, non lakeside pitches were quite on a slope, would need levelling chocks.

We've just spent a lovely couple of nights here trying out our new caravan. On arrival we had a lovely greeting from Lorna, who showed us to our pitch. One with a lovely view.
Being novices and due to motor mover not working we had to park manually. And were assisted by a staff member and a fellow camper. Very grateful for this.
The toilet and shower facilities are superb. Best we have seen so far, lovely and warm on a cold morning.
Lovely walk along the Brampton Valley Way to Market Harbourough, took around 40 minutes.
We will return to this site again. Highly recommend.
The only downside for me personally was no WiFi. But can live without it for a few days.

Have just returned home from 3 nights stay at this little gem of a site, arrived in a blizzard, staff were very kind, and showed us to our pitch, on the lake, which is the largest pitch we have ever seen, We have been on sites where three vans would take equivalent space,
The setting was tranquil, with lovely walks along the disused railway, wildlife abounds, we seen otters in the adjacent stream, we did not take up the Fishing (Included) or the Golf,
We enjoyed our stay very much and the Coffee in the site cafe?bar was the Best we have had in a long while, Overall Highly Recommended

We have visited now many times and would always come back. Its a 5 star site, with a craft shop and a licenced cafe. Fishing is great. Showers and toilets are fantastic clean and heated.
Would recommend anyone who wants a peaceful and scenic break to book up now
Its close to shops, leisure centre and Golf. Market Harborough as lovely shops and pubs for food us restaurants.
James and Lorna plus the staff are polite, helpful and nothing is too much trouble for them.
Definitely well worth many visits
Thanks

To start the positive, pitches good size and a good space between each pitch. Toilet block on touring pitch clean hot showers and plenty of room. Downside of this site, sloping pitches, not enough information was given about the site on arrival, no washing up facilities, laundry room is not on the touring site & is also kept locked (on cl site)grass not cut around pitches. Having keen golfers in our party they were VERY disappointed that the course was very neglected, after speaking to the owner he did have the fairways mowed, but the putting green was overgrown the holes were covered over with grass and some T markers & flags were missing. Dogs were allowed to roam around on the course off the leads. Visited the tea room even this was a disappointment only had drinks cant say they were hot drinks because they were not! did mention this to them only be told Oh sorry. On the whole was disappointed with the site and will not be returning,

This site does not live up to its description. The touring field is not level, the laundry is locked, and the pitch and put had grass about18ins to 2ft high and was only cut after complaints from our companions. The site needs tidying up in many areas. Very disappointing stay.
We were given very little information about site facilies and were not told who and where the warden could be located.
