 We wanted a overnight stop not far from home and this site was ideal.
It was easy to get to from the m5 and was well signposted on the main road. There was plenty of space to park up whilst booking in.
The pitch itself was a good size with electric hook up very close and a tap at the back which was shared across a few pitches. The pitches are in pairs with established hedges. No one was on the other pitch in our pair but it would have been tight if another motorhome was there.
The new shower block was lovely. Only four of the seven cubicles were unlocked but we never had to queue. It was lovely to have plenty of hooks, a large cubicle, toilet and sink al in the one room. BUT the water was scalding hot! We struggled so it would have been unbearable for a child. Also the extractors weren't on so after showering the room were very hot so by the time you had dried off and dressed you were all hot and bothered again!
The shower block was spotless in the evening but by the following morning it wasn't so great - but this was more due to people not putting paper towels in the bin etc.
The pub served pub grub but it was quick to arrive and tasty.
We will return to this site as it is relaxed, is close to the M5, has lovely showers, handy pub next door and friendly staff - drop the temperature of the showers and it will become a favourite!

Easy to find with good access to site once you have got your 'card' and worked out how it opens the gate. Had a good meal at the pub and there was a good dog walk outside our pitch.
Now for the bad things. The pitches had hedges dividing them up, each space was for 2 caravans. As we were only there for one night we did not put up our awning - Probably a good thing as we would have been on top of the trailer tent on the adjacent pitch! I thought there were rules about the minimum distance between units. The electric hook up point was actually in the middle of the hedge so that the vans on either side could access them - pity about the mass of stinging nettles round them.
A lot of money had been spent on the showers and toilets. They were close to the pub and children's playground. The door opened with your card - But no one seemed to shut the door (it did not have a spring closer on it)enabling the children from the playground easy access and consequently the place looked as if every one had run around in dirty feet. The bins for the paper towels were tiny so there were used towels all over the floor. The toilet roll holders did not hold the rolls so the big toilet rolls were on their sides on the muddy floor. The notice said the showers would be closed for cleaning from 10 am to 11am but were open at 10. 30 and they looked as if no one had cleaned them for a month. The water did not run away as the drains in the showers were full of 'muck'- a shame as the location for someone heading to the S, W, was ideal - we had booked in for a night on our return journey but cancelled it.

Well what a lovely little campsite tucked behind The George Inn. Although there isn't anything really nearby, there are some lovely walks along the river and through the fields. The site itself although small was very clean and tidy and the shower block is possibly one of the best we've experienced so far. It has individual shower rooms with toilets and washbasins in, brilliant especially for families I would think. The showers are free and there is plenty of hot water. The Inn its-self is very nice and the staff very welcoming I would recommend the steaks, beautiful. Just watch out for the ghost! All in all a really nice place and we will definitely be going back.

Had a wonderful weekend at this well kept campsite just off the main road. It was well signed with plenty of room to turn in with the caravan. Pub staff were helpful and friendly the food was excellent and the beer well kept. The site is secured with a barrier and the keycard is also used for the shower and toilet block. I love their idea of individual bathrooms in the shower block though there were a few design errors of shower doors opening on the wrong side and some door fastenings too close to the edge to use easily. The blocks were clean and well supplied during our stay.
The site is close to Slimbridge which is an all weather attraction and we will certainly use this reasonably priced campsite again.

As a spur of the moment choice to meet our daughter half way home we chose this site.
The friendliness of the staff inside the public house was second to none. Having a severely disabled child with us often makes eating out a challenge - the team inside this pub could not have shown more compassion or understanding towards our needs even asking another set of diners to move as we had asked for the table over looking the road so our son could watch the cars and rain out of the window. The food was amazing - no zing or ping - steak was cooked how asked was slightly envious of my husbands hearty steak and ale pie - home made and delicious.
The pitch was private separated from others by high conifers. The water points were in close proximity and electric hook up right next to the pitches which was very convenient.
The new toilet block was lovely and clean on our first visit and the frequent visits needed when having children. Each bathroom was fitted with loo, sink, shower, shave point and loo roll/soap. BUT only being cleaned once a day they did become dirty rather quickly - I suspect this was due to other residents and their own poor standards. More frequent cleaning would help this. The old toilet block however was rather aged and worn - the bugs were bigger than the kids :)
The park is protected by an electric gate - sadly this was either broken or not in use which was a shame as it left the park open. A little unsettling security wise due to the closeness of the road.
For what the park lacked the staff made up for! Would definitely use this park as a good stop off as its a short drive from M5!

Well, what is there to say other than awful, awful, awful - such a shame. This site has the potential to be beautiful. It's in lovely setting alongside the canal, with the majority of pitches being on grass and in bays of two.
The pub itself looks very nice, with a good menu. There is also a children's play area outside. They do have a bit of a monopoly though, as there is nothing else in the surrounding area.
Arrival and check in at the pub was fine; friendly and efficient and we toddled off to find our allocated pitch - that's when it all went wrong! We arrived at our pitch to find the previous occupants unit still there - with no sign of the owners and looking very much like they were not ready to move off. We were then informed that they would not be back for a couple of hours! After just travelling up the M5 in very heavy traffic for 5 hours we just wanted to pitch up and relax.
As there was no guarantee what time we would actually be on our pitch we decided to move on and returned to the pub to get a refund. This was all handled with grace by the staff - the sad thing was that they didn't seem to care, or appear to want to address the situation.
All I can say is thank goodness for the Caravan Club, who allow one night stopovers during peak season - needless to say, no we won't be giving this site another try!

Nice little campsite, conveniently located on the A38, five minutes from the M5 J13. Road noise wasn't too bad at all.
Cambridge is a small village with just one pub, the George remaining. We didn't find any shops nearby.
The new toilet and shower block is fabulous, although if you are disabled is unsuitable. The old toilet block remains and is somewhat grim.
The playground is popular, likewise the beer garden.
All pitches have electric, some hardstanding, all are flat and sheltered by hedging around each pitch.
The river Cam runs alongside the site which is lovely to see the swans, moor hens etc. But keep an eye on smaller children as it is not fenced. There is a nice little wood adjoining the site, great for walks.
The only disappointment was the George Inn itself, although easily rectified with a refurbishment as well as a good clean, extra staff and fresh food.
Similar priced food of exceptional quality, good service in a lovely location was found a few miles away, but worth the effort. I would thoroughly recommend the Wharf House in Over, just outside Gloucester.

Spent a full weekend at this site in the beginning of Sept 2011. Very easy to find. Liked the pitches which were very secluded surrounded by high hedges, each pitch had a tap close by.
The shower / toilet facilities were acceptable but only the big one was open because the smaller ones were under refurbishment and the bigger ones were due to be overhauled before the end of the year.
Overall enjoyed this site, the security gate onto the site was good. Good site for dog lovers some very good walks adjoining the site.
Will consider using this site again.

The riverside campsite at the George Inn, Cambridge would be an excellent site if only the toilet blocks were improved so that showers don't switch off whilst in use, most off-putting!
The White Lion pub nearby allows dogs in, which the George doesn't. The site is both child and dog friendly, lovely!
There are lots of footpaths nearby to explore and lots of wildlife, rabbits, squirrels, ducks etc.

First stop over in rented motorhome, so very careful driver in charge! Used as a stop over on the way to Devon, 5 mins off M5 just north of Bristol, so great location, indeed it would also be a good resting spot heading back north.
Nice well cared for pitch, good size too with elec hook up, the pub was very good (and busy), good selection of local ales & ciders, didn't eat, but food looked very good. Showers etc clean & convenient, overall nice little site.
Did not see much of the surrounding area so can't comment.
