Canal and parking on your left as you drive in, with a cafe and children's play area. Canoe club and the a large field for campers. Around to your right is the main car park and at the end is the entrance to the Woods. Great safe walk with kiddies / dogs. Not suitable for pushchairs/wheelchairs. Lots of areas to explore. The army do train here so be careful of the soldiers if your dog is nervous of the gunfire. Sometimes they just do the orienteering but one of them hiding under a bush might make you jump!! Lovely views higher up go straight on when you enter the main gate. Or turn left and you can make your way down to a part of the canal that is clean enough for a paddle.
Had a great peddle boat ride today on the hottest day of summer. Nice and serene place for walk in woods. Reception area is great and staff is very friendly. There are couple of options for boat hire on the weekend.
Very nice simple camping. Great if you have a motorhome, water tap on side of field easy to drive up to and fill up tanks. Great area for walking dog off lead either on the canal towpath or the huge adjoining pine Forest. Will be going back again. It is worth noting that the campsite closes end of October, however if you have a motorhome they will let you stay overnight in the car park, you still have to pay the camping fee but it is still very convient for a winter stopover.
Absolutely lovely spot for camping. Nicely maintained field with nice walks around the canal & boat trips & hire. Loads to do with kids, lovely cafe that does take out food for the camping evenings you don't want to cook. Shower block and loos on site.
An ideal location for our soft play parties with plenty of space for the little ones!

We had a wonderful trip on your canal boat Kitty. Such a lovely welcome from the crew and had a very informative chat with Jeremy about the local area. So lucky we had sunny weather to enjoy this super boat trip. Great to have the opportunity to experience this trip thanks to all the hard work of your team.
If you love water and nature this is a lovely spot to visit. You can camp on site. Have a canal trip on one of the boats at the centre. There's a cafe children's play area, toilets, showers and disabled access and toilet. The canal centre is very informative of the area and history of the canal. If you enjoy walking or cycling the woods are right on the doorstep. So plenty for all the family whether you are active, sporty or just enjoy relaxing by water.
Had a lovely trip on Rosebud this weekend. Two friendly and knowledgeable crew who made our pootle around enjoyable and interesting. As a skipper for a different canal charity's trip boat, I can say it was a great trip out on a waterway I wasn't too familiar with. The crew handled obstacles namely inexperienced rowers in hired boats in a friendly and professional but relaxed manner. Top people, and a lovely unique waterway. Have already recommended!
We love it here - haven't camped but regularly visit and take our canoe on the water. Great little cafe on site, that does a smashing sausage sandwich and a great hot chocolate, in fact all the food we have had has been good there. It is just a nice place to relax and enjoy the water.
