 A very clean site, much improved since the new toilet and shower blocks have been placed. Nice peaceful surrounding even though it is next door to the M25, only hear it at night and then just a gentle hum.
Gently sloping with some hard standing.
Conveniently located for all of London's major attractions.

First time visit to this park and it was good value for money. Surrounded by trees and bunny rabbits. We spent three nights here and the drone of the M25 was not a problem for us, the birds morning chorus was louder lol!
The shower/loos although being in portakabins were clean and warm. A 20 minute walk down a leafy lane turning left out of the entrance takes you to the A10 where Costcutter, Mcdonalds, Burger King and a fish and chip / kebab shop could be found and a couple of pubs.
However a 5 min drive along the A10 towards London takes you to the bigger shops like Morrisons, Sainsburys, B&Q etc.
We found the staff to be very friendly, Fran in particular. The ambience was typical of a C&CC and was relaxing. The site hook up is 16amps for those with EHU. I can recommend this park.

We have just come home from a week there. As my husband works near the site we decided that we would take the caravan there and I could do some paper work myself in the caravan and also have some rest and relaxation. As for the site, well, the toilet and showers are so old and not too clean. The dishwashing area and washing machines etc were no better. I know that it is a bad time of year but there were cobwebs in all areas. The facilities desperately need updating. There was also a nasty smell outside the toilet block at times coming from the large drains. It would be an idea to put in some recycling bins and definitely put in an automatic barrier. It was soooo annoying to have to keep getting out of the car to open and close the gate, especially in the rain. There is a drone from the motorway which some days was a lot louder, it depended on which way the wind was blowing! We were pleased that the site had a few hardstandings put in.
There were lots of rabbits around and one evening we saw a small deer going behind the wardens van - plenty of nature around !
The male warden was quite pleasant and the female warden let us stay on a few hours extra as we were having lunch out before we left.
There are a lot of large shops around (B & Q, Sainsburys, Tesco. M & S, Homebase, Morrisons, etc.) Also we found a great Indian Restaurant in the High Street, Cinnamon Tandoori, which also delivers takeaways to the site.

Just arrived back from a week here.
Very basic site. Toilets very clean and staff work hard to keep them that way,but they are in a prefab huts and not nice. Showers are awful, no temp control which wasn't ideal in hot weather when you wanted a cool shower. Also only 3 showers which was a bit of a nightmare in the morning when you wanted to be up and off.
Staff could have done with a bit of local knowledge. Not very helpful and just kept directing us to a shed with leaflets in.
Wildlife was lovely, nice to wake in the morning to find loads of rabbits outside.
M25 drone- you soon got used to it. Found it better to get overground train from Hadley Wood into London as it wasn't so busy with yound children. Also no problem parking on the road so no costs.
Overall, basic but clean site but don't think we will visit again.

We stayed here for a week before moving onto somerset and I can honestly say we thoroughly enjoyed it.
Considering how close it is to the m25 you hear hardly any noise at all and the wild life was a real bonus, every morning we were greeted by squirrels and bunnies and several bats in the evening.
As previously mentioned the toilets are prefab but are very clean and we didnt find them an issue.
An ideal base for visiting London and we will defenate return

This site offers a great location, just off the motorway network & ideal for exploring all the attractions of London. A really friendly site makes you feel at 'home' straight away. Only one drawback, if you have anyone that sleeps in the bedroom annex of the awning, they will probably be kept awake by the constant motorway 'drone' of the M25. This could also be a problem if you have a tent. In a caravan, the noise can hardly be heard. This is a small site, offering good value for money for the area. Average facilities & you have to make your own entertainment as there are not many things for the kids to do.

We live local to this site and visit regularly through the season. Having two boys with lots of energy we find that the open areas in the centre of this site are great for ball games. The facilities are adequate and if you like a lot of space around you get a pitch down the bottom end of the site where it seems to be less busy.
The local chinese delivers to this site which can be useful if you can't be bothered to cook one evening. Through the woods at the far end of the site you can walk out and follow the river Lee navigation, but remember you are not allowed to fish here for perch and pike(nudge nudge/wink wink).
Overall we really look forward to setting of on a friday night for a weekend at Theobalds Park.

I'm really glad we didn't let the previous review put us off from visiting this lovely site. Having read it we expected the worst, but were extremely pleased with the standards of the site throughout. The staff were welcoming and warm, always had a smile and some time to chat, were very knowledgeable about the area and places we could visit locally.
The showers and toilet blocks were perfectly adaquate, exceptionally clean and the washing up facilities were of an equally high standard.
We took our 2 Jack Russells with us who were intrigued and excited by the 'Watership Down' appearance of hundreds of rabbits and a few squirrels mid-afternoon. The rabbits didn't bat an eyelid at them.
The Scottish family next door with the 3 extremely well behaved children were a welcome addition to the weekend, with smiles whenever we passed and in spite of the rain on the Sunday afternoon, kept the atmosphere of our part of the site very happy.
Looking forward to returning soon, Paul & Steve

I have just returned from a five-day camping break at Theobalds Park. Campers be-ware but Caravaners may enjoy it more. My family and the group of friends we were with all agree it was horrible and here are some of the reasons: - The toilet block was of the pre-fab type and were very seedy compared to other C&C sites. The cubicles were so small that if you had long legs or were slightly larger than average this could have been very uncomfortable. The showers were some kind of throw back from the Second World War, again tiny cubicles that never allowed you enough space to wash under your arms. There was no hot or cold choice you got what came out of the spray located above your head (pointed straight down about two inches from the wall with no adjustment). Unfortunately for me I never saw any hot water at all during my stay (apart from when washing up) although others in my party did. The two totally inadequate washing up sinks were in an area so small that two people filled it and any drying up needed to be done outside. Strangely enough the clothes washing facility was palatial by comparison but as far as I could tell no one used it. While on the subject of hot water it was supplied by the type of water heater that granny used to have in her bathroom, I think there was probably about eight in total.
The field was clean and tidy. To summarise we had a great time but ror a C&C site this was well below par.
P.S. The hum of the M25 was so far down on the list of annoying things it doesn’t even get a mention, although I could tell the make of the cars from there engine noise. Also way down the list, shutting the complete toilet block for an hour and a half of cleaning and the over strict camp warden.

Nice site, little oasis on the outskirts of London.
We used this site as a base to visit the sites of our capital. Good rail links. Good clean, warm shower and toilet blocks that never seemed over busy (prefab constuction). Friendly site wardens. Good sized pitches.
Would visit again as a touring base.
