 Toilets and shower block tired but cleaned regularly and were perfectly acceptable.
Watersport facilities were excellent especially the sailing on Saturday morning but the pedallos were £12 for ½ hour - and under used.
Surrounding area beautiful, with lots of walks, Market Bosworth worth a visit and the battle site very interesting and excellent value for money.
It's a real shame, the site could and should be a fantastic family venue but with no warden on site to enforce the rules I would not recommend if you value a bit of peace and quiet and a good nights sleep.

For our kids first camping trip (aged 5, 4 and 2) this was an ideal site. It's close to home (incase they didn't take well to it) and there was a shop for them to buy ice-cream! Yum!
We were close to the toilets and shower block which were in a decent state, and next to the washing up facilities which were also good.
The playground and fishing facilities were great for the kids, but also enjoyed by hundreds of locals as we arrived on the first warm day of the year. So the children didn't get much of an opportunity to play.
I think the price is a little steep for what you get, but a fine site for families with small kids.

The site seemed poorly maintained and the facilities seemed in poor repair and definitely needed cleaning. The site lacked facilities for campers and especially those with young children.
The shop and cafe closed early despite the fantastic weather and crowds of people still wandering round.
The site had a very nice children's play area and a reasonably priced shop and cafe (when it's open that is!)
However. The site really could be so much better!

We have been to this site a few times and my main gripe is the fact that you are given or request a pitch number, but when you arrive there is someone else on the pitch. Dont waste your breath telling the staff - the last time we went there was a huge RV parked in the road blocking off 3 pitches (mine included) More hardstandings are being added but for 'long stayers' - so it's mud or nothing! Could be a lovely site if run better, price is a bit steep too, we never go in season as the price goes even higher

This site was suggested to us as it is reasonably close to Nuneaton where our repair and service man is based. It’s a fairly basic site – the toilets are clean but shabby. We stayed from a Friday to a Tuesday, but no-one told us the kiosk and café were only open on Friday and Saturday, meaning we either had to make do or pack up our 8.5m motor home and venture into the nearest town – we made do.
The hard standings are in pretty poor condition - we got stuck and had to be pulled out. The manager came to our aid pretty quickly and towed us out with his land rover, but it needn’t have happened if the hard standing had been maintained. Finally, we thought £10 deposit for the gate key was pretty steep, even more so when there was no-one there to give the key to when we left so we have to send ours back by post.
On the plus side, there are plenty of water sports if you’re so inclined and I can imagine the site is busy in the summer months. Even so, at £17 p/n we thought it was expensive for what you get, especially when compared with Caravan Club sites.

Just come back from a weekend at bosworth water trust. Site pretty well laid out but toilets and showers pretty shabby and I think paying for barrier unfair as should be part of pitch fees.
Although there hadn't been much rain my car got stuck manoeuvring caravan as ground very muddy! We couldn't put up awning because ground very poor condition. Heavy over night rain left site under water and very un-pleasant and made it tricky to move about! Real shame that drainage hasn't been sorted as somewhat spoilt what could be a really nice site.
Poor signage and no lighting of waste water/bin area also no separate drain for waste water same as chemical toilet so un pleasant and dangerous at night!So take a torch!
Think bit pricey for what is there.Nice play area for younger kids but think site mainly geared up for people participating in watersports. Staff not that helpful.Glad only booked for two nights as wasn't sure if car would get stuck! needs updating

This was our First time at this campsite.
We had booked earlier in the year and were given a pitch number after we had paid our deposit.
At reception we checked in and they confirmed our pitch number when we went to the main field we discovered someone else was pitched in our reserved pitch. After a bit of friendly banter with the occupant I returned to reception they picked off a label in the book and found my name underneath it, so we were given a different pitch. This seemed to be a theme with people I spoke to through the week. They need to get an efficient electronic booking system.
Pros: The shower blocks were cleaned regularly about three times a day, although they did get muddy quickly from people using the watersports facilities. The Pirate themed play park was a hit with our three kids, as was the walk I took them on round the lake. The gas was reasonably priced too.
The batter of Bosworth chipshop is a must visit (we went twice yumyum) there's a card in the window of reception so you can call up and pre-order for collection so you don't have to wait.
Cons: There was no light at the Elsan disposal point which made life difficult as I had to juggle with a toilet and torch. A plague of Wasps caused some trouble, but citronella soon solved that.
Despite the negatives we would go again.

This is was our first camping trip here although we had been for the day before.
There was a lot of mix ups with our booking from putting us onto the wrong dates to whether we wanted or needed EHU.
We were in the camping field next to the main field which we preferred. There was a large area for the kids to play and run around in and we enjoyed a game of rounders!
There is a really nice area for washing up under like a summer type house.
A suggestion would be a waste bin in there.
The showers were hot but it was fairly muddy in there but I guess that come with the location and weather!
The main bad point were the wasps! There were far more than you would expect and our kids got stung many times. They say that they have got a problem with nests but we did suggest that they get someone in to get it sorted out.
We didn't find the camp site too noisy and it is a good place for families with the lake, beach, pedalos and sailing etc.

We have just come back from a stay here. We chose the site for it's facilities for disabled. Pros:
The site is lovely. The lake a beautiful setting, staff very helpful and friendly. Playground for children is fun, cafe very pleasant and clean. Field for tents great for children to play and run around. Watersports looked well organised and very professional. We thought it was very good value for money. Market Bosworth is also a lovely village. Can recommend chinese and bakery.
Cons: The lake is open to the public and can get busy. Also you do get the feel that you are camping on an open site eg one night at 4am I was woken by some men running around then kicking a ball(I assume worse for wear) and it frightened me wondering if they were people who had entered the site up to no good because the site is open. I guess this could happen any where but I did feel vulnerable. They left and to my knowledge there was no trouble.Although I was unnerved.
Showers were clean they did get mucky but that's to be expected with the volume of people using them. It's also the campers that make a site and if you get people who do not take care of the facilities ie I went in for a shower and one family had their dog in there! That's about their standards and you can never account for that.
Disabled toilet was good although we had cold shower which was a nightmare for my son. Bad timing - we showered him when water consumption was high and consequently he had a freezing shower. Was warm the next time though when less people using. If you do have someone with a disability the site is ramped. You have a key for the separate shower and staff were happy to charge up our wheelchair overnight.
Also we had a major wasp problem. My little boy stung 4 times
Ok it sounds bad from that but we did enjoy our stay overall.

If you're looking for a campsite with watersports (ie canoe, windsurf, dinghy sailing, fishing, pedalo) have a look at this place. Our kids are a bit small for this but we saw lots of groups receiving tuition and some people launching their own craft.
We used and can recommend
- sandy beach for our children to swim and splash
- pedalo (bit pricey though)
- bags of fish food (30p each) to feed the shoals of carp that hang around the jetty
- large wooden pirate ship play park
- large areas of open green space
- a walk round the lake
- bring a kite
- the fish shop called The Batter of Bosworth approx 1 mile away
Look out for various sporting challenges/races & special events held on site.
Mens WC/shower block got watery & muddy after about 10am (no shower curtains in the 3 shower cubicles). Noise eventually died down at night. We camped on the overflow field which was mostly level ground and good for tent pegs.
We luckily managed to avoid pitching between the goal posts (they're not immediately obvious) but did experience an intense football game at close quarters. We noticed the posts were convenient to hang a volleyball/badminton net.
There's a sign next to the reception area that says Warning Free Range Children which described the site very well. The shop ran out of bacon & bread. We used the mini supermarket in Market Bosworth.
