Camping Pod - Barrel Camping PodsJul 2025

Quite shocking, there seems to be seasonal caravans with awnings all over wherever there's a space. Our view from the pod was a dirty caravan with the awning half fallen down, just randomly there on its own amongst the pods. The camping fields look lovely but the hardstanding seasonal pitches look like they are nearly on top of each other.

Site's response

Hi Justin, thank you for your feedback. While we understand that not every stay will suit everyone's preferences and we're genuinely sorry to hear your experience didn't meet expectations. We always strive to provide a friendly, enjoyable environment for all our guests, so it's disappointing to hear you felt the whole of your stay wasn't good value. Regarding your comments about the caravan: it had to be carefully moved from its usual pitch due to damage caused by the awning. This is currently under insurance assessment. We understand this may have affected the appearance of the area, but we are supporting a customer and following a necessary process — this was an unavoidable situation. As for the layout of our pitches, Golden Valley has been thoughtfully developed from natural woodland. Our pitches are shaped by the landscape, giving the park its unique charm. While they are not uniform, they do meet general camping and touring guidelines. We always welcome constructive feedback; however, it's important to clarify when certain claims may present a misleading impression of our site. If you'd like to discuss anything further, please feel free to contact us directly. Kind regards, The Golden Valley Team.

Trailer Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesJul 2025

A lovely campsite. We will definitely be using on a regular basis for a quick weekend away. Kids playgrounds are amazing, and kept our boys entertained from Friday night to Sunday morning. Kids entertainment was just as good, and then music and discos in the evening. However by 10pm, the site becomes quiet to allow sleep for everyone. Onsite facilities were great, bar and cafe great. For our weekend away, we couldn't have found a better site.

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2025

Facilities for disabled a little tired and could do with an adjustable shower height replacement as it kept sliding down the pole when steamed up. Only marked these down a mark for the fact they look a bit grubby, but in fact, they were cleaned regularly and were clean, just tired. Lovely place overall. Service was great and even moved us to a pod (paid the extra) when my son struggled with the tent, so really accommodating and helpful. Campsite is lovely, lots of bits for the kids. Football tables, table tennis I think I saw, parks, sand pit (huge) saw a lot of play equipment in reception so I think you can borrow these too. My son is 16 so a bit old for that. Perfect for young kids. It was relatively quiet at night. Only sounds we heard were the road. But even this quietened down.

Tidy place for relax!

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2025

Weather was lovely so made our stay really nice. However, extremely noisy road heard from tent pitch all night. Facilities dated and old including parts of the park. Other parts of it were good. Toilet block got dirty with overflowing bins and dirty floors. Shower block has fabric shower curtains which just scream germs. An average stay. Could really do with a bit of money spending on it and it could be lovely.
