 Lovely site, good size plots and the toilet and shower cubicles are brilliant, one of the best I have ever come across (could maybe do with a fan when you go in that you can turn on as can get quite hot in the cubicle), the only other slight negative comment would be the gravel is quite hard to get pegs in (ensure you take a lump hammer) could do with being different type of gravel so pegs can go in easier. Other than the 2 slight negative comments I would recommend this site to anyone

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights. All the pitches are fully serviced. Although it was a big site with lodges and fishing lakes the caravan park was very clean and quiet. Excellent facilities. Toilet and shower together. Both the reception staff and bar staff were very friendly. The fish and chips on Wednesday night are very good.

We booked this site because my husband is a keen fisherman, and we had not been before I booked on line and chose a lake view. I didn't realise that it was a service pitch which was fantastic, we arrived and wow what a lovely site it was Wednesday evening we were near the toilets and showers which were the cleanest I have seen piped music, log cabin feel and a laundry room too, we went to the clubhouse where a fish & chip van arrives that evening you can sit outside or in and use the plates and cutlery, the club serves breakfast and lunches you can take the dogs in the lounge area where there is a pool table, shop, books etc. Also there are lots of leaflets on the local area and takeaway menus, on Friday nights you can order a takeaway and eat in the clubhouse or have it delivered to your pitch which we did a lovely Indian the best I have tasted in a long time. Everyone was so friendly it is a fantastic site and we will be booking again. it is adult only as well. only one tiny tiny thing you cannot fish the lake we were near, it is only ornamental but my hubby did manage to catch a few In the other lake.

Just come back from a weekend here. Lovely site, spacious pitches separated by small hedges. We had a superior pitch which had water/waste etc on pitch. One problem you need a very, very long fresh water hose as the bollard holding these was the opposite side to where we had to pitch. Not all the pitches were like this though. You got given a picture on how to park car, van and awning. We had to use the normal aquaroll.
Nice bar and small restaurant. We had a snack and very nice it was too.
Lots of fishing lakes (7) and very popular for anglers.
Wash rooms were like having your own ensuite. Loo, wash basin and big shower and then a separate dressing area including a hair dryer. All just for you in 4 separate blocks. Best I have ever been too.
Nice walks around this very large area for dogs but not many dog bins. They had a walk dog shower as well but we didn't use this as our dogs are non swimmers.
Went into Melton Mowbray on Sunday but most of shops closed.
Would recommend for a weekend.

We recently visited Eye Kettlby, which is a departure from our normal stays on cl's. It came well recommended from some mates at work. The booking procedure was done on line, you can select your pitch from the site plan. What a fabulous site. All pitches are separated by small hedge, with a hook up, tap and a drain. (there are some cheaper non service pitches available ). The toilet facilities have to be seen to be believed, individual toilet units containing toilet shower and wash basin, and with piped music. The disabled facilities are also amazing, I have never seen such a large well equipped room. The grounds and facilities are kept spotless. There are about 7 lakes around the grounds and day fishing can be purchased. Reception is a short walk from pitching area and there is usually live music on Saturday night. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The site is strictly adult only, and this includes visitors.

This site is one of the best around, from booking to arriving and leaving every thing is spot on. The cleanliness of the place is top notch, everyone is so friendly, its a very quite site just what you need to recharge your batteries, will be back. The showers are so roomy that I do not need to use the disabled ones well done you.

Great site all tarmac hardstanding pitches with tap, electrics and waste water, within a few miles of Melton mowbray which had a good open market and train station, the toilets are units with a shower which are cleaned daily, the site has a club house / tea room which has a bar and live acts on at weekends, it's a short walk away but no noise to the campsite, although the site is adult only we did see children on the camp site being secreted out of a motorhome, I think the management should keep a closer eye on the camp site, would recommend the site and we will return

We have used this site several times and in more than 20 years caravaning in the UK and France this is probably the best site we have ever used. It has the best facilities and pitches, there is not much extra you could ask for. 1st class.

Probably the best Tranquil Touring Campsite by far.
From the moment you drive onto the site to leaving you will not be disappointed.
The staff are great, the clubhouse is very good with reasonably priced food and beverages, some nights they have entertainment.
The pitches are nicely spaced with shrubs dividing the pitches.
The toilet and shower facilities are modern and immaculately clean, maybe my only criticism is that they need to be heated or cooled to the current weather.
Would I go back again ? Yes without a doubt.

Don’t expect a view
We booked 5 months earlier and got the last remaining pitch. £92. 50 for 3 nights.
This site had been recommended and because it was bank holiday we thought we’d pay that bit extra. Everything on the web site looked great.
Very misleading from our “row” of vans there was no view whatsoever (unless you call looking into other caravan windows a view), very misleading from the web images. Trees & shrubs had grown, lakes, what lakes? Vans in a row like regimented soldiers on a rough terrain. Space to park your vehicle was very restricted
Grass around pitches very in need of a cut, also on dog walk. Difficult to pick up after your dog in such long grass. Oh and the dog walk also doubled up as a landing strip. Nearly got taken out, very shocked by a light aircraft that came into land above us. No one warned us of that (no signs either).
Saturday night entertainment, as advertised and confirmed when we checked in didn’t materialise (again a particular reason why we booked this site). Apparently she’d been double booked. Hope that they may get something “sorted” for the following night but they didn’t.
TV signal poor in every direction we tried it
Loo/shower block good standard, but I’ve seem equally as good in most sites we’ve visited.
Over all very disappointed, certainly won’t return.

You can not find anything negative about this site. You only have to read the positive reviews from visitors who return time and time again.
To the people that have never been to Eye Kettlby before my advice book and I promise you won't be disappointed. This site is run by a 100% owner and family hands on site supported by a team of staff they can be very proud of.
As you can probably tell this site is highly recommended and is 5* all round.
Have book again for August Bank Holiday and in 2017.

What a super site!
Very clean, lovely relaxing environment and for the fishermen I imagine this is top notch. Dog walks are great, everything is very accessible but not cramped.
Downsides, there are not very many, The new internet access on pitches is not particularly good, and an additional charge. Mobile signal is not the best, so don't expect 4G on your pitch (on EE anyway)
Getting to site was fine, no real problems with access, roads are navigable without issue, Good for the first time caravanner.
Give it a look, I'll certainly be back for a weekend with the dog.

Just spent a week on site concur with other comments from previous postings good facilities if a little lacking whilst we were on site due to full capacity, maybe need to consider another utility block. Pitches in the higher numbers require levelling blocks 48-61, shame really as so much work has gone into providing a good sized serviced pitch I would have thought with a little more effort could have made the pitches level. Clubhouse was great with meals served 15. 00 - 18. 00 happy for you to organise your own evening meals to be delivered to the clubhouse. Wed/fri organised fish n chips/takeaway night. Staff excellent always willing to help, site quiet at night so no issues getting to sleep. Tv/satellite reception fine, wifi didn't work on out pitches but I understand that's to be rectified. Nearest shops in Melton Mowbray but site shop covered most essentials.

We spent the bank holiday weekend here, specifically wanting a quiet site.
This was our first visit and we were very impressed. The pitches are quite close together, probably the closest we have ever been on, but the hedges round each pitch do stop others from walking through your pitch. Very dog friendly, we don't have one, but apart from a couple of barking ones they were all well behaved.
The site was peaceful after 11pm which is what we wanted.
The bathrooms were reasonably clean, and warm, and athough it was very busy we didn't have to queue. Lovely hot water.
The washing machine and dryer are a good size and reasonable cost.
We have a 5th wheel, so we're unable to pitch nose in. This meant no awning, and we had to park on the grass and gravel (forbidden) we will be aware of this next time and try to book a deeper pitch.
Loved the lakes, especially the one on the site with the koi carp.
Close to Melton Mowbray. We cycled round Rutland Water and visited Oakham, a town worth a visit.
We will book again.

Had another brilliant weekend at this site despite the cold. As every poster has said the pitches and facilities are top notch. One comment however is that on arrival you are given a card with codes on & an A4 with some really useful info on regarding take aways, eating places etc. We were pitched in a different place than last time and for the life of me I couldn't find the bins & asked another camper in the end. They were not where I would have expected them so how about a map to show us where things are?
We went to Stonywell a National Trust property. What a wonderous place. An arts & crafts cottage which was one of the most awesome places. Loved it! It was like a real home with lovely woods where you could imagine children playing all those years ago. Go visit if you can. We went into Melton Mowbray though I have to say apart from Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe & Anne Of Cleaves ancient pub it's like most other small towns. We like this site a lot and will be back again.
