We had an absolute blast during our stay! I brought my son for a short break and it couldn't have gone better. The highlight was definitely the activities on-site. We tried axe throwing, archery and paddleboarding—It was the perfect mix of outdoor fun and bonding time. The campsite itself was clean, welcoming, and had a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. We both had a great time and made some wonderful memories. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend it to any families looking for an adventure-filled getaway!

Highly Recommended! Just back from a fantastic stay at Spring Valley Lake. The staff are amazing and truly go above and beyond for their guests; they really can’t do enough for you. The site is very clean, well-maintained, and has a lovely, relaxing atmosphere. It was a hit with the whole family—especially the dog, who loved the paddle boarding! We felt so welcome and looked after throughout our trip. We are already looking forward to our next stay. Thanks for a great holiday!

Arrived down a random single track. View opened up to marquee and lake. Lovely view. At reception, staff were dead friendly and helpful. Site pitches are massive and so long as you follow site rules, you are free pitch how you like. We got 2 pitches together and we set up a windbreak. 30m down to the lake for self launch of kayak and paddleboard. Site bar in a double decker bus = class. Battle of the bands event from 7pm. Look forward to that. Will definitely look to come back
