What was great?
The setting but......

Even better if....
We visited Proctors Caravan Park from the 5/6/ to 7/6. How disappointing, this site has the potential to be a fantastic place to stay if someone would be willing to put some investment into it. It’s by the canal, not too far to walk to the lovely village of Quorn and Barrow upon Soar The site has boat moorings and a working lock, seasonal caravans, static caravans and tents and to be honest it looks like a caravan dumping ground for old caravans of all styles, Please don’t get me wrong I’m not one of these who thinks you need to replace your unit every couple of years or so and I love the idea that people enjoy their units for many years but these looked like they have been forgotten about, one caravan was up on a trailer going nowhere. There is another area under the bridge we did not go to this part as the approach was off putting. The entrance to the site is narrow and scruffy and there is no signage, reception opened from 12 p.m. which we think is late. There is a code you need to use to gain access out of hours. To exit the park from where we were pitched was a tight left turn, to make matters worse and even harder a van was parked in the turning area making it even harder to turn. This should be a no parking area and you would struggle with a larger unit. This site looks like a very tired 1970’s holiday camp, it reminds me of a trailer park. Not sure if it’s under new ownership but please invest in this potentially great site. There are no clear marking of where to pitch which is fine I like the idea of freestyling but this site is too big to carry it off and some van’s were too close together, The grass was long, hook ups not placed with any thought, no toilet rolls in the loos, no soap and the, how are you meant to wash your hands correctly without these facilities. We did not use the showers and the chemical waste point was a trek. There is a bar on site but again we decided to walk to Quorn. For £16.50 (because we booked early otherwise £17.50) per night this site is over priced for what they have to offer. At this moment in time I would not use this site again. There is a pub next door to the site and a Chinese across the road but we never used them. Children allowed, we had none, dogs seen to roam freely Come on owners give this site some TLC.
