 There certainly is a mixed bag of reviews about this site and I will say straight away some are rude and unfair. The invite is there to make up your own minds and we did just that
If you are looking for an all singing/dancing site with 5 star facilities and neatly cut borders etc, just don't go here.
If however you are looking for a natural grass site(with or without electric) in extensive grounds with walks directly from the site then give this a try. There is a pub, The Kings Arms in Wing some 10 minutes walk through the grounds. Check openings days and times? Closed while we were there but looks fabulous.
The two ladies mentioned in some of the reviews, Robin and Marianne are delightful. They are helpful and efficient. (Ask for the printed sheet of walks.
The shop is well stocked and yes it's not cheap but neither is it way over the top either. Lots to choose from. The bacon was brill that we bought.
The cafe looks really lovely with its terrace overlooking a large lawned area.
Now the facilities. Lots to choose from. All clean and found no problems. The showers at the back of the shop are probably the best.
Yes some lighting for the washing up areas would be good but not needed at this time of year. They are not the best but they are more than adequate.
Would we go again. Yes. It is a perfect stop over and more.
Rules. No more than any other site. If you want to play loud music or be making loads of noise after 10 pm. Don't go here or anywhere else come to that.
Thank you
Martin, Gill and Harry the Vizsla

Beautiful area, fantastic farmshop, abrupt staff (except for the lovely elderly woman).
The site advertises showers/shower blocks available. Only after taking freezing showers did a staff member advise us that the showers were closed! We were told by a staff member that there was one shower available and shown to an unmarked area away from the shower blocks in a "residential area".
The website also says that a card must be inserted into the meter to activate electricity. But it does not say that the customer is required to pay an additional £5. 00 fee, on top of the pitch fee, for the card. This should be clearly stated.

Visited with my adult son for a great weekend break. Very nice site. Easy to find and well laid out. We stayed in a tent-only (no hook ups) field and although the pitches were well marked/labelled ours could not be found. Its possible that a larger party nearby had spread onto it but the site was quiet that weekend so there was a lot of room. Our field had about 80-100 pitches I reckon. All well kept, short grass and pretty flat. Very few stones which helped with pegging. There are other fields with hook ups which are of a similar standard. It was dry the weekend we went (for once) so I can guarantee but it looked like the site drains well to me.
Fire pits and BBQs are permitted and they provide fire stones for them to stand on. No wood available on site so bring your own or go foraging but the wooded areas were fairly green during our stay.
Facilities are very good. Two toilet blocks and washing up areas. Two shower blocks. All were kept clean and tidy. The shop is well stocked albeit at campsite shop prices. We found a supermarket about half hour away which mostly did the job for us but it was nice to have local produce available on the site too. Water taps are dotted around and were not flooded so no wading required. Waste areas are also in a few places and kept tidy.
The site has a "no noise after 10pm and no music at any time" policy and everyone kept to it. Our field had a number of younger families and all the kids were in bed by 10, leaving just the adults sitting round our various fire pits. Another field had a teen school (poss DofE) party but even they were quiet after 10.
But the site is not silent. There is a train track not too far away and the trains will blow their whistle every time they go past, which was about once a hour when we were there. The trains only seemed to run between say 8am and 8pm though.
The chickens roam the site so expect visitors and if you bring your dog you will be expected to keep it leashed. As said I didn't travel with youngsters but I didn't see any play facilities etc. For them.
In terms of things to do, we were only there two nights so we didn't look for lots. There seems to be plenty of things all within 30 min drives though. Rutland Water is only 10 mins drive away (or you could bike/hike it). We spent the day (£6 per adult) bird Watching at the Anglian Birdwatching centre which is just on the west side of the wildlife reserve. Great setting, accessible and well informed hides with a lot of room. You do a bit of walking on site - 12km or so - between the hides but much of the walking in shaded and the scenery is spectacular. Take a pair of x25 or x30 binoculars and enjoy looking out for a wide range of water fowl - including the Ospreys.
All in all this was a great weekend camping for us and the site was a big part of that. I reckon we'll visit again but maybe go to some other places first.

Overall a very pleasant experience. Lovely site set in the grounds of a stunning Rutland mansion house.
Plenty of space to relax without feeling like you’re on top of your neighbour. I travelled alone with the intention of cycling and fishing in the area so perfectly located for me.
I’m a seasoned camper so not particularly looking for lots of luxury so this suited me fine. Saturday night was fairly busy as you would expect, but by Sunday evening there were only 3 tents remaining. Peaceful, indeed! Great shop. Free range chickens and Turkeys.
A friendly dog called Lulu. Red Kites flying overhead. Clean showers and toilets. Monday evening provided great entertainment as a group of DofE turned up.
Watching them master tent pitching and outdoor cooking took me back to my scouting days.
Some of the facilities took were a little hard to find, but ask about and people will point you in the right direction.
Didn’t try the cafe, but am told it is good.

Beautiful location, friendly owner, great on site shop and cafe. It’s a brilliant safe site where the kids can run free.
Toilets could do with a bit of a clean. Just don’t think there was enough for the size of site.
Showers ok. Did the job.
We booked 8 pitches and requested to be together. 3 had to pitch in a different location to 5 of us however no one else arrived during our stay and there were spare pitches around both areas that could’ve meant we were all together. The lady checking us in was very confused about pitch numbers which I think was the reason we didn’t all get put together. We still loved our time there and will come again.
Easy to get to Rutland water and surrounding town of Oakham.

Wing Hall is a picturesque campsite with a lovely little shop. Showers are hot and plenty of them, toilets too. However, the blatant rudeness and unhelpful staff in every capacity from moving a booking due to Covid, to arrival and passing each other on the site was such a shame and needless. Have the camping public created monsters, is it our fault, are they just in the wrong job? I suppose I will never find out.
A constructive criticism was the ELSAN point did not have any water or hose to swill toilets or the area down after use. It was also part of the same small block to source drinking water, although there were other water points in the field.
Picturesque site but don’t expect welcoming helpful staff.

Great spot with decent facilities and a well stocked shop.
Pitch allocation was a bit wonkie but we found somewhere else and told them after we had come back from an impending booked table at the pub. No drama. (Excellent food, Black sheep bitter!)
Had lots of toilets and showers even though it was busy.
They rent fire pits,
Rutland water is close by.

Really poor facilities. Showers were either dangerously scolding hot or freezing cold.
Men's urinal / shower block was a dank hell hole that was locked most of the time. Some were without locks some without lights. So many campers were not happy. The toilets and showers and washing up facilities were rustic in the extreme. It's a shame as the sight has potential and is in good location.
It needs some younger more committed management to run it properly and money spending on the facilities to bring them up to even a basic but clean and functional standard. Sorry but facilities standards have improved generally on campsites except here.
I really hope the owners take note and improve the facilities. We would return to the area but look elsewhere.
