Has anybody got any suggestions for a camp site near Drayton Manor that would be suitable for 4 adults and six kids (age ranges 4 - 16). I see Drayton Manor has it's own camping site within the Estate bu the last review was in 2003. Anybody stayed there recently? Not looking for too much from the site just somewhere to crash after the park closes really, alcholic refreshment would be a bonus though.

Cheers campers.

Although we have not stayed at the camp site at Drayton Manor we have been there for days out, twise last year. It is a great park for adults and kids. Last time we went we had a nose around the camping area, it looked ok. Showers and toilets looked clean enough. No electric hookups. And the camping area is in a lovely location, and near the pub! There has always seemed to be plenty of people camping there.

If we didnt live so close (only an hours drive) we would definately camp there.

I am also interested in camping at Drayton Manor, I sent for their brochure and it says bookings not accepted.  As I want to go the 1st Saturday of the school holidays, I don't think I would get a pitch as most people would probably go Friday evening. 

hi stellafella

there is a site about 20 mins away from drayton manor

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/reviews.asp?revid=3851 we live by here and have stopped here a few times nice and clean check it out

kingsbury waterpark is spotless and 5 minutes from drayton manor well worth of a stay and loads of walks

Thanx for all your helpfull comments folks. I have to say I'm a bit put off about the no booking at Drayton Manor. Don't fancy having a 200 mile drive with 4 adults and 6 kids and finding no room at the inn. Marston looks quite good but might work out a bit pricey for all of us.

And as for Alton Towers we were going to go there orginally but concensus of opinion changed it to Drayton Manor. We were going to stay at Callow Top if we went there.
