Reviewer: Ben-j-min 6 reviews from this member

 I just never knew that there could be sites like this in this country it is simply out of this world.

It has every thing and some clean (spotless) showers/toilets that are just like 5 star hotels pitches have tv points drinking water taps per pitch grey waste drain per pitch hard standing for van shingle for awning and grass.

Shop bar and eatery with awesome food all reasonably prises.

Helpful and friendly staff 7 fishing lakes dog walking area love this site cant wait to go back.

Reviewer: Luckyskip 19 reviews from this member

 We have just return from a weekend break at this touring site. We booked it as we have two energetic little dogs & needed a site with plenty of good walks for them & us to enjoy.

We chose a standard pitch number 54 which is just on the peripheral of the main camping area without the TV hookup or the grey water drain (we didn't really need either), what a good choice it was. We were the last pitch in line so not overlooked at all, our views were wheat fields & countryside rather than other campers ( we are not anti social, but which would you prefer honestly? ). The whole experience was good from the minute we arrived to the minute we left, check in very friendly & informative, all the staff were friendly & helpful throughout our stay always with a warm smile. The toilet & shower rooms are immaculate, the showers are full privacy rooms ie each one is a contained area with a shower(unlimited hot water, no push buttons here), toilet, sink, hairdryer & plenty of hanging space away from the shower for your clothes. We walked around the fishing lakes all seven of them which gave the dogs plenty of walks along with the open fields that are available to them also. The club house was suitably far enough away from the touring site to be unobtrusive, but a useful addition to the site as they had a bar along with selling food both to eat in & to take away. With the obvious exception of the restaurant, everywhere else was totally dog friendly making life much easier for us if we wanted a drink or some food which was excellent.

We are already booking our next stay with them, one of the best sites we have been to & with the added bonus of being adults only at this time of year.

 Well another great break at this 5 star park. Fantastic fishing, friendly staff, and an inviting clubhouse, and most importantly, it is very dog friendly. This was the first place we took our caravan, an we have been back many times since. Don't really want more people to know about this fantastic place, but I think we owe it to the owners to praise them for what they have done.

Reviewer: Itsdryinside 4 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for 4 nights during the week and were a bit worried about coming to such a big place but needn't have. Very friendly reception and given enough info to be helpful but not overloaded. Levelish pitches with plenty of room and each with own water supply and electric. The new toilet block meant not having to walk along way to other one (but no washing up facilities in this one) Far enough from the clubhouse but near enough to walk - we went to the quiz night, which was fun. They also have fresh bread delivered everyday and newspapers for those who need them.

My only small criticism was that, on the day of departure, we decided to go to the clubhouse for a cooked breakfast and were a bit surprised that dogs were allowed where you were eating - not sure if that was just breakfast time or a general policy.

Would certainly return when I am in the area

 What a gem of a place. Stayed for 4 nights. Weather was faultless lovely well maintained site. Showers and toilets spotless, very friendly people, plenty of lovely walks all from the site. My partner did some fishing and managed to catch a few fish all of good sizes. Can not wait for our return trip.

Reviewer: Hannah walk 2 reviews from this member

 We spent the night at Eye Kettleby Lakes last night and it was a dream. We are on a charity walk camping along route and thought this site looked nice and welcoming from the website. When we arrived we were greeted by the owner and the friendly staff who actually let us have the night for free, we are going to put the money as a donation for the walk- very kind. We had a quiet lite spot just near the cows, which are long horned and beautiful to watch as the sun went down. The bar is lovely and has a sort of Swizz cottage style to it which is very desirable. The shower and toilet block is beautifully thought out and we were finally able to wash and dry our clothes! We really are very thankful to the kind service we received at this site and I really do recommend anyone wanting a nice get away with a decent spot for fishing! Thank you.

 Our first ever caravan trip in a brand new Van. We chose this site because we could have a fully serviced pitch and it was not too far from Derbyshire. Also, all the amenities were there and dogs are allowed. Having just arrived safely home and filled with excitement for the next trip, I can't praise the site enough. It was beautifully landscaped, the pitches were tastefully screened, yet not too enclosed. The toilets and showers were spotless and very modern. Loads of walks for the dog around the fishing lakes which seemed very popular with anglers. A small shop for essentials and restaurant and bar too. Lovely staff and the visitors seemed friendly. No kids anywhere either (sorry parents, we don't all love screaming children). Everything was perfect, and because everything was to hand, we could concentrate on fiddling with the caravan. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and Melton Mowbray was a nice little town. If the weather was fine, which it wasn't ! Hey ho. Please don't change anything EKL.

 We were looking for a site to stay a few nights and do a bit of fishing on our way home from the Isle of Wight, this site was recommended to us by a local angler whilst we were at another site and we were not disappointed. On arrival we were informed about the site, what was on each night at the club house and given various leaflets about the site and surrounding area. The complex has 7 lakes of various sizes, containing many freshwater species, lake 2 is the recommended lake for large carp. The site facilities are exceptional, toilets and showers are housed in individual log cabins and are the best I've seen on any camp site. The pitches are spacious, ours was one positioned around the ornamental lake which is a nice feature. There are all the local shops in the nearby town of Melton Mowbray.

Reviewer: Codwales 22 reviews from this member

 Just returned after a week at this fantastic place. This is one of my favourite sites which I visit at least twice a year. The facilities are out of this world. The staff are so friendly there is always a smile and a good morning/afternoon. The only downside was the lack of wifi as it was only available in the clubhouse but they have now installed wifi on the site. The owners listen and act on customers feedback which is the reason the site is so popular.

Reviewer: Daintydaisy 3 reviews from this member

 This is without a doubt our favourite site. Set in beautiful surroundings the site has numerous fishing lakes. The fully serviced pitches are very spacious and overlook a beautiful lake. Great for dog owners, can take them into the bar area where they serve lunch and lovely homemade cakes. Entertainment normally on a Saturday night. There are also some lovely log cabins. Staff very friendly, only downside is book well in advance, but this is to be expected, you will not be disappointed.

 A very well thought out site. First class toilet facilities. A bar on site were breakfast is served it also has a good dog waking park set aside. The side is very clean and tidy. And we will be returning very soon as soon as we get a small car to tow behind the Motorhome so we can go and explore the little towns nearby.

Reviewer: MD12375 1 review from this member

 Thank you for a lovely stay. The facilities are excellent and the attention to detail made our long weekend very comfortable: even down to the warm water in the hose used for washing off dirty dogs. The shower facilities were comparable to a hotel. The staff are friendly and welcoming, nothing was to much trouble. We shall be returning and will recommend this lovely site to others.

Reviewer: Teddiesue 10 reviews from this member

 Wonderful site, immaculately clean all round. Very quiet adult only, private site with lovely walks round the lakes with the dogs. The facilities are very impressive, everything has a feeling of substance with lots of natural wood. The individual shower rooms are very roomy with a toilet, wash basin, enclosed shower, and an ante room with a bench, hairdryer and shaving point. The shower rooms are also heated and have piped music. The clubhouse is very welcoming and there is a small selection of items in a shop area, and fresh baked bread and cakes.

In the centre of the site there is a huge ornamental pond with a fountain and picnic seating situated round it.

All of the pitches have electric hook up AND their own water tap, brilliant idea, no more traipsing an aqua roller to the nearest tap.

The only con if anything is that the dish washing/laundry facilities are only at one side of the site, and is a short walk from where we were pitched. But not a complaint in any way.

The pitches are mainly hard standing and gravel, so you will need rock pegs if you have an awning

Will definitely be returning here in the near future.

 We arrived New Years day to a very quiet full campsite, seems the New Years eve party was really good and everyone was having a quiet day 👍

We had a lovely few day here, best site we have used so far.

Toilets/ showers were excellent, very clean/tidy and warm.

Nice walks around the fishing lakes.

Had breakfast in the lodge 2 mornings, very nice and reasonable prices.

Melton Mowbray a short drive way, we visited on the Saturday and there was a good market, and of course had to buy some pork pies.

We loved this site and have booked to visit again later in the year, would highly recommend.

Reviewer: 123xlizzy 1 review from this member

 I would agree with all the great comments. This site is an outstanding adults only site. It has everything you could want in a site. In particular I have to mention the staff who are all so lovely and cheerful. The breakfast in the clubhouse was delicious and we had a great evening on Saturday night listening to the live music in the bar. A fantastic young couple called Present Day. What a fabulous evening. You couldn't ask for more on your weekend away in your caravan/motorhome. We'd highly recommend this site. We will definitely visit again.
