July 2005 couldnt get into our local weekend chillout place because it was full so tried here for the first time.
Now first and foremost this is a watersports and fishing place not a campsite but at no point do you feel that the campsite is cared for and maintained any less than the rest of the trust, the ground is level, grass short, nice pitch markings for those wanting EHU and the odd fern dotted around the place.
There could be more toilets and showers but they are kept well and even keycoded to get into them.
Now here is where it went a little downhill, not much, but may get on some campers nerves, the place is on a flight path, not noticable in the day but when I was trying to sleep at 23:30 it was loud, and first thing in the morning its loud, and also if you wake in the middle of the night the power station that powers the whole trust gives off a mighty HUMMMM.
The views and the lakes are superb, you cannot be nothing but impressed with the place, if you like playing in the water, this is the place.
Note aswell, because this is firstly a water center you will find some of the campers are not actual 'campers' if you get what I mean, but everyone I spoke to was friendly.
May 2005 Visited this site for Mayday weekend 2005. Although we booked up 3 weeks in advance we could not get a hook up, so we decided to chance it anyway. On arrival we were sent to a feild that was flat and well kept although very spongey. The site is a haven for kids with water sports, swiming, fishing etc. Boats, windsurfers can be hired by the hour. There is a good cafe/bar where if it is nice, as it was when we were there, you can have your food and drinks on the patio. We only had 3 showers in the shower block, not enough for the amount of people that were there. The shower block was kept clean and tidy. A walk around the lake in the evening was really nice. We had our daughter, son in law and 2 grandchildren, in there own caravan, with us, and hardly saw them all weekend.Harry, our dog realy enjoyed himself, in and out the lake all weekend. The site is only 8 miles from home but we had never been before. Will we go again, thats a big yes.We had a realy good weekend. Site:8 out of 10. Harry the dog says:10 woofs, he liked the lake.
September 2004 Stayed one night just to try out the new tent. Midweek in a rainy September meant there were few people there so it was very quiet. The site is flat and grassy and even though it is the end of the holiday season the ground was in good condition. It is a fairly open site due to the large lake and therefore quite windy - some shelter by the hedge, but it depends on wind direction. There is a small shop on site, toilet/shower block looked fairly new (ladies consisted of 4 toilets and 3 showers) and they were very clean and pleasant. There is a small play area for children consisting of a large wooden boat structure and fort type building with 2 slides - probably not for the very young, although my 2½ year old coped okay.
Locally there is Market Bosworth for a few shops & pubs and also a couple of takeaways (fish and chips and Chinese).
Cost £10 for a tent including occupants, but you do have to pay to get in initially (then you get a barrier ticket with a £10 refundable deposit) - cost to get in varies between £3 - £4 depending on the time of year.
If you're into water sports this is an ideal venue.
July 2004 This site is well worth a visit. Plenty of activities for the kids, in a safe controled enviroment. The pitches are adequate and the new shower block is good, if sometimes abit muddy.Its well worth taking a wind break as it can whistle across the water. There's a great walk along the canal to the battlefield museum and back into the town where some good pubs can be found. The club house offers some good food and entertainment but the drinks are a little bit pricey. All in all a good wkend.7/10
7/5/04-9/5/04 Trust us to pick the wettest weekend of the year so far lol! The field was pretty muddy and water logged in places, but hey British weather!! The site itself is very nice, run by very friendly people. There is a nice children's paly area with 2 large slides and a pirate ship for the young ones and their imagination's. The lake on site is pretty big and you can have a nice stroll round it and feed the ducks etc. At the side of the resturant/bar there is small sandy area for the kids to play in. We didn't eat in the bar, but the prices were reasonable and the food looked nice. Could perhaps do with a few more showers as there are only 3 in the block, but saying that, we didn't have to wait and they were hot and free. One thing they don't tell you about is that when you arrive at the site you have to pay £3.00 to get through the security barrier, which is not refunded. There are a few shops in the village but if you want serious shops then Nuneaton is only 10 miles away and has everything you could want including Asda & Sainsbury's. I would visit the site again, but hopefully when it's dry.
4 times a year We live quite close to this site, and find it excellent. There is a good play area for the kids, as well as a large sand pit and cordoned off area of water that serves as a 'beach'.
The owners are very friendly, and tolerant of barbeques etc - even if you only go for the day to watch the water sports.
The showers do close for quite a long time for cleaning, but at least they are being cleaned! One earlier post said that they were full of surfers - we haven't found that, as there are number pads on the toilet doors, and the numbers change each time you go.
There's also a large field you can play football etc. in, and a recent addition was a bike track, which was a great hit with the kids!

May 2002 Went in tent rather than caravan, site level some shade, very windy good for sailng but not for camping, in a tent. May have changed now but when we went the toilets were closed from about 9am to about 10.30 am for cleaning, the showers were being constantly used by wind surfers for changing ect,and the showers were comunal apart from that not a bad site. Will probably visit again. Can get good meals on the site, Some good take aways in Market Bosworth.

July 2002 Visited site to test out new tent as it is relatively close to home. Although we arrived late and it was busy, found a reasonable pitch easily enough. There is not much to do here unless you are into water sports. Market Bosworth is close but a testing walk due to the lack of path. We found the site noisy and boisterous but the staff were very helpful, particularly when we discovered our gas regulator wasn't going to work. Altogether not bad for £8.
