    Lovely quiet area. Car flat & not too muddy. Local dog walkers were friendly. Difficult not to park under trees. The information board states "no camping" but didn't say "no overnight parking". A chap was emptying the bins in the morning, asked if we'd parked overnight & said we shouldn't have (hence the 4 stars).

    Great, quite little quiet park up. Lots of bins and picnic tables that are useful. Highly recommend!

    Will agree with another feedback, high camper vans/Motorhome’s take care, low (soft) tree branches in places but possible. We high transit, contact with branches, but all good. Stayed for one night, only camper van, had the place to ourselves. Very peaceful & safe. Few dog walkers in the morning, no issues

    Would not recommend for larger higher motorhomes as there are many many overhanging trees and the space's are designed for cars of which there are many coming and going constantly all day. Picture's from previous contributers do not reflect the present layout as it has become very overgrown and difficult to park.Would be quiet later on I would imagine. Fishing day tickets available on line.

    stayed here for the second time a couple.of nights back .. definitely becoming one of our favourites .. group of teenagers and their cars there when we arrived approx 9pm but they were very polite, instantly turned the music down and even asked us if we wanted them to leave. (we said no of course) .. the walk around the reverse is a must do

    November 24 Lovely park up but very busy with a constant stream of dog walkers. We couldn’t get signal with Tesco but perfect with EE there are plenty of bins not just the one in the carpark. We found it level and had a good undisturbed sleep and would use again no height restrictions but low hanging trees in places

  • 5/5

    Nice place very quiet last train around 11pm but not too loud no facility’s. nice walk around the lake very peaceful

  • 5/5

    Beautiful location. Peaceful night. Plenty of room. No facilities.

  • 5/5

    Lots of parking available. If you walk for about 2 mins into the park there is a huge field that is fenced in so the dogs can run around. A few people around using the lake walks for dogs/fishing but all very friendly. One other camper was there when I was, but very quiet and peaceful. Could only find 1 litter bin.

    Last minute change of plans for us last night meant we weren't where we were supposed to be and needed to find a stop nearby, hence we arrived here. What a wonderful, secluded place to spend the night .. worth the stop for a walk around the nature reserve .. some alight noise from trains into the evening and (very friendly) dog walkers early morning.

    Super lieu, au milieu de la nature. Dommage un chouille sale. Il y a un champ clôturé pour lâcher son chien, parfait.

  • 5/5

    Beautiful spot. Great for watching the birds on the pond, fishing available too. A few footpaths for scenic walks. There's a village about 1km away. Pub isn't open on Mondays. Mobile phone reception is spotty (Vodafone)

  • 4/5

    We spent a very peaceful night here and had the place to ourselves. Nice walks from the carpark. No height restrictions, but some of the trees are low hanging and sounded very scratchy on our motorhome. Phone signal was OK. No facilities nearby; Parking only

    Verbleven hier voor 1 nacht. Er zijn voldoende ruime plaatsen, stonden hier alleen. 's Avonds en ' ochtends voornamelijk locals die hier komen wandelen met hun hond. Waren vriendelijk naar ons toe. Er is een vuilbak, dus laat niets achter. Erg aangename nacht gehad in de natuur, vele dieren kunnen spotten. Trein amper gehoord.

    Lovely quiet off the beaten track park up. Train tracks close by but nothing to disturb through the night. Brilliant. April 24

  • 5/5

    great stop over would use again if in the area

  • 4/5

    Lovely quiet spot in the car park for Eastington pond. No facilities, need to be self contained. No height restrictions. A few dog walkers evening and morning. You can hear trains on the nearby railway line but the noise is not loud. Definitely recommend.

  • 5/5

    This is an amazing spot. The walks around the lake and reserve are beautiful and there's plenty of wildlife to be seen. The parking spots are big some noise can be heard from the railway line but stopped about 11.30pm. Busy with dog walkers from 7.30am but very quiet. locals greeted us with smiles and hello's. We'll definitely be back. stayed one night Monday 15/08/23

    lovely quiet spot, lot of spaces, next to pond and plenty walks, had great night sleep

  • 5/5

    Lovely spot, we stopped here to have a bite to eat and a wander around the lake. Its one of our more local sites so we will pop in the camper one evening for sure! It’s a lovely spot, I can imagine it’s a really quiet place to park up for an evening. The village it’s located in is pretty and quiet.

  • 5/5

    Stopped over on a Saturday with my children. Lovely spot for walking the dog and a quiet nights sleep for us all.

  • 5/5

    Stayed a couple of nights, very popular with dog walkers. Nice tren around the ponds. Had TV signal and wi fi during stay. Quiet at night. Plenty of parking.

  • 4/5

    amazing spot! but sadly we fell unlucky with being up all night to a boy racer blasting his music till early hours in the morning. with a baby on board this isn't ideal. maybe next time we will have a better experience. fingers crossed.

    It has been reported by a visitor that swimming is allowed in the lake. It is not and the signs say so as it is deemed dangerous as it is an old quarry. Please do not swim in this lake, there are objects under the surface which may trap you.

    Parfait pour la nuit des promeneurs arrivent tôt le matin mais sont très discrets. Quelques déchets , merci de garder l’endroit propre , il y a des poubelles à disposition !
