Large Tent - Standard Non Electric Grass Pitches (Island's Riverside Meadow)Jun 2023

I can't praise this site enough, it was incredible, the location was perfect, right on the river and a stone throw away from a little village where there are a couple of lovely pubs. The site has a well stocked shop, clean and well kept loos and showers, drinking water stations and a freezer for customer use. Check in was easy, the owners are absolutely lovely and we will most definitely be returning.

Large Tent - Premium Electric Grass PitchesJun 2023

Great site and very pleasant and helpful staff. Well maintained with an excellent riverside pub a short walk away. Very clean facilities. Would benefit from an additional toilet block on the island.

Motorhome - Premium Electric Riverside Hardstanding PitchesJun 2023

We haven't been camping for over 30 years, and decided to try out the idea of a motorhome. After 2 weeks in Scotland, we decided not to rush home and break the journey here. We would have loved to stay longer, but had to return the motorhome to the hirer. We now have a caravan, didn't like the motorhome, and will definitely be back for a longer stay.

Thank you for your lovely review of the site Richard, we are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your visit with us so much. Hope you are enjoying your new caravan and look forward to welcoming you back to the site in the future! :-) Enjoy the rest of the summer! Best wishes, Katherine & Jimmy

Single Axle Caravan - Premium Electric Riverside Hardstanding PitchesJun 2023

We stayed at Stenningford water park not knowing what to expect and it was brilliant, we were facing the river. If you haven't a mover, they did it for you and it was not too much trouble for them as they suggested it, they couldn't do enough for you making your stay really relaxing and nothing was too much trouble. Very polite and suggesting places to visit. #I can't speak highly enough of them and we will be back 😊😊😊😊😊😊

Beautiful setting for a campsite. A nice distance to walk into town, facilities were good with a little shop. We were in the hardstanding by the water side, which was excellent…would use again.

Idyllic location along the river

VW-Type Campervan - Premium Electric Grass PitchesMay 2023

Just stayed the one night. Idyllic location well away from any roads. The pitches are scattered along well kept grassed areas, it was so nice to see wild flowers growing around the well established trees. The site runs alongside a river. It was very peaceful and there was lots of grassed areas for children to play. We will certainly stay again. There is a shop on site but if you want anything else, Morrisons is a 10 min drive away.

Medium Tent - Standard Non Electric Grass Pitches (Island's Riverside Meadow)May 2023

We had a fabulous stay at Sleningford Watermill. We felt immediately welcome at our check-in and were given lots of useful information. We were on a non-electric pitch, so were able to choose where to pitch our site. We had a lovely position right next to the river with only a short walk to the shower block and to the water. The site is absolutely beautiful and clearly focuses on conservation. It is so peaceful and tranquil. The facilities here are outstanding. The shower block and wash-up area were immaculate each and every time we visited them. We had two dogs with us. Dogs are not allowed off the lead anywhere in the park, however, it's only a very short walk out of the site and dogs can run freely along a riverside pathway to the village. It takes 15 mins at most. We had lunch at the pub and the beer garden is right on the river too. We cannot wait to visit again and next time stay for longer.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review of the campsite, Emma. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us so much and that you found a nice space to pitch up in. Thank you for your kind comments about the facility blocks as well. Look forward to welcoming you back to the site again in the future :-) Best wishes from Katherine and Jimmy
