Wing Hall Caravan & Camping

This site misses out on 5 stars, for a few points, some of which are being improved upon due to ongoing site upgrades, others which need consideration. None of them spoiled our weekend, and for the price, this site is a gem.
The site has two fields for camping. The first includes both tents and caravans and includes power points. It also features free-​range chickens, which we decided to avoid. The other field was dedicated to tents and has no electric hook ups.
On the minus side:
A water tap in the ‘tent’ field would save relatively long walks with heavy water cans.
Whilst the new showers were very good and clean, the water did run cold at busy times over the May bank holiday weekend. The showers are new for 2011 and the water heating is due for an upgrade in 2012, so this problem should be short-​lived. Note the old showers to the rear of he Hall still require a 50p payment in the meter.
Not a problem for me, but if you’re used to wet shaving, there was a lack of hot water and a mirror in front of a sink
On the plus side:
afternoon cream teas were served from the coffee shop on the lawn
An on-​site bar and coffee shop
An on-​site farm shop, with farm shop prices, but the quality to go with it
5 minute walk to the Kings Arms, Wing
Within a stones throw of Rutland Water
Free wi-​fi available in the vicinity of the hall
well priced campsite and friendly staff
Overall, I would recommend this site to a friend, especially if you’re an outdoor type looking to explore Rutland Water and the surrounding countryside. We willbe going again.
