One google reviewer Martyn Winspear praised the site for its cleanliness.
He wrote: “Just returned from an excellent 5 night stay. Lovely site set in woodland, the facilities are exceptionally clean and modern with proper showers rather than push button showers, I didn't have to wait to use the shower and toilet facilities once, which considering the site was very well occupied was brilliant .
“We saw the members of staff around all day cleaning and tidying as they went, even outside of the shower and toilet facilities cleaning times they were in there mopping the floor and doing the things other guests didn’t do to keep it nice and clean.
“All 3 members of staff we saw and spoke to were very polite, very helpful and well presented in their uniform.”
The campsite is next door to two golf clubs and a fishery, within 20 minutes of Birmingham and Coventry.
Address: Somers Road, Meriden, Coventry, Warwickshire.
