Rutland Water Camping - Tents only — Hotel in Great Britain

Stayed over bank holiday weekend - overall recommendation is to avoid this site when it is likely to be busy. The site was solely interested in letting as many people stay to take as much money as possible. There were too many people on site - resulting in no showers at times i.e. ran out of water. Before the water ran out the showers were freezing cold.

I could go on, site owner told me in the morning that people were taking the piss so I'll be going back when these shithawks...

Armley Lodge Farm Caravan and Motorhome Club Certified Location is located on the Hambleton Peninsular, close to the banks of Rutland Water and is part of a working farm.

No on site toilets or showers. Care needed on approach through Hambleton village as roads are narrow and can be busy at popular times. Friendly and helpful owners. I can thoroughly...
