It was our first time camping with our new teardrop camper and we definitely chose the right place! David was so lovely and helped me to reverse it onto the pitch. Due to bad reviews I expected the facilities to be dirty but they were far from it! Very clean and plenty of toilet roll!
As for the location, it’s amazing for people who love walking, we had a few hours walk down the canal and I definitely recommend walking across the road to the Riverside cafe for some lunch. Other than that there’s not much to do unless you want to drive into Stafford Centre but perfect for a quiet chilled couple of nights!

Basic but exactly what we needed. Stayed with 3 teenage boys who spent most the time in the river or round the campfire.
Loo and drinking tap were a bit of a trek.
Alex and family were very welcoming.

A lovely clean campsite with plenty of activities to do locally. There is someone on site all of the time which is reassuring . We had a beautiful spot right overlooking the canal junction . We had a great 3 night stay at Great Haywood . Thank you so much

Lovely view! Farm Shop opposite where we got ice cream, fresh milkshake and fresh pizza cooked! Then we went on a walk past the canals and found Essex bridge where the kids swam with other children in a river! Kids had the best time!

Absolutely fabulous camping spot, we were 4 adults and 10 kids ten and under and it was great to have so much space for them to run around, and the river to cool off in. It is absolutely no frills, just one compost toilet and a water tap, but that’s all you really need!

One night, 10 kids and 4 adults! We stayed at the weir side, expecting a stay in the wild. Having had to re book due to a storm the previous weekend, Alex put up two hammocks, and with the fire, an empty field bar a few sheep, a bouldery climb to the paddling area and a laddered climb to a dip, we were totally entertained for our stay. Alex gave good chat, the chickens were entertaining, and most importantly for us, the kids were able to be wild and loud and free.

Great little spot by the canal. Facilities are quite basic but the swans and goslings more than made up for it.

The host, Patrick, was amazing. He fixed an issue which I had created when booking the trip. The location was perfect for our plans. Lovey canal side location. Great cafe 2 minutes walk of site, pub 5-10 minutes. No issues with noise from the train track close by. Thank you
