Zeitweise kompliziertes einchecken. Ansonsten alles super

Nice place to go for a walk round the woods and by a big lake you can also watch people practice kayaking and loads of other water sports with nice views and there are some boats and there is parking and a hotel which I have no information about but I know it's there. There is also water parks and water activities in the summer to bring the kids

Great place for water spots (obviously) they have a great gym loads of parking. I had a single room very basic but comfortable. Got a kettle tea , coffee ,shower USB charger in wall sockets. I booked a room and went to a gig in Nottingham so it was perfect for what I needed . The main gates close at midnight but they give you a phone number and the night manager will come and let you in ...Great service. Would I stay again absolutely but next time would like to try more of their amenities looks a lot of fun .

Went there for the national dragon boat championship (rowing lake). Did not stay at the hotel. The location is good and it’s nice to have decent toilet and changing facilities. The biggest gripe is the food and drink. A small white coffee was £4 (more than the main chains medium size) and lunch was £13! for quite basic food.

Lovely spot went for a cycle ride along the slalom course and then around the rowing lake. Rowing lake path is very flat. Downside was no cafe open so no lunch

On visiting the park for the first time as a blue badge holder. I googled about blue badge parking. It said first 3 hours are free. This is not true. Even tho a small sign on the right half way in says free parking. Apparently not. You must read the sign on the entrance/exit. Very confusing. Parking should be made more simple and not to catch you out in order to give you a £60 fine. We only visited our grandchildren playing.
Also very disappointed with the tatty unclean cafe outdoor area with broken chairs and a lick of paint wouldn't go a miss.
I would give it a wide birth with how expensive and worn out the
Play areas are. Just another rip off park area.
Definitely wouldn't go or recommend. AVOID

A fantastically placed site.
Very busy on the weekends but reasonably quiet during the week.

I was disappointed when we arrived that noone came to show us the pitch, it took a couple of attempts despite the map to work out where we were supposed to be.

Despite the site being very upto date the cleanliness of the showers and toilets was disappointing. Sanitary bins not emptied over the weekend. No mop in the showers which meant the floors were filthy with mud and grass from the previous occupant.
There was also no hair drier available in the showers, which seemed like a basic they had missed.
I also wish the family/ disabled showers had been more clear on their maps as we didn't discover these until our last night. Showering 2 under 6's in their small cubicles could have been much easier if info was clearer, or as I say if there was someone more willing to speak when you arrive.

However, if you're just here for access to water sport, it is amazing. Barely a ten minute walk to the regatta lake and then access to all the other activities.

The single rooms are tiny, the rooms are very warm but windows open (slightly) onto the car park so it's either privacy or a small amount of air. The shower is ok but again a tight squeeze for a 16 stone man. The entrance is secure but have to ask to enter after 9pm. The location is great, it's on a man made lake with woodlands surrounding . No food or shops but can order to the hotel
