Good for a stop over

Unfortunately during our stay there was building work on one side of site and they were repaving the footpath on two other sides. There was always background noise. The country park next door is great for dog walks. The industrial estate opposite was great to restock on nearly anything you wanted. Walked down to the seafront via the park. There is not a lot there except a few drunks staggering back to Butlins. I would say, at the moment this site is good for a stopover and restock before moving on.

Our very first trip out and stayed at Rowan Way camping and caravan site to meet some friends, nice site, washrooms and toilets absolutely spotless. Grounds neat and tidy and everyone friendly. Some reviews complain about the road noise, yes it’s there but got used to it. Being close to shops useful b&m and home bargains very close, huge sainsburys, Costa, Burger King etc just down the road Pitches are really well spaced so plenty of room to test out your awning Nice dog walk area next door (Bursted brooks) Thank you to all the staff for the friendly welcome and service John and Tina

Maiden trip for our motorhome.

Rick & Kay are great hosts, very friendly & helpful. Rowan Park is a lovely site but sadly not in a lovely location. As mentioned previously - the constant traffic noise arising from the close proximity of busy main roads. We were aware of the traffic situation before we travelled & to be honest, we weren't particularly concerned with it, although there is a continual reminder of its presence. When the weather allowed, we were still able to eat al fresco & continue any conversation. We were there 24 - 30/05/2022. It was busy but never felt overcrowded. A nicely laid out & maintained site. I would still recommend Rowan Park, thanks to Rick & Kay and the work they do to keep a pristine site with the warning to be aware of the traffic noise situation.

Great Club Site

Lovely site, mainly due to the friendly staff who look after you. Great facilities and nicely laid out. Great dog walk nearby in Berstead Marshes. The noise from the building site of the adjacent retail park is tolerable and usually stops at teatime. Well done to the whole team who make sure you have a pleasant stay.

A great stay for a few days

First time visiting Rowan Park. 1st impressions lovely clean and pretty site. Wardens were great and got lots of site and local area info. We’re able to go and choose a pitch. Toilet block pristine, site kept lovely and tidy. Plenty of service points. Local area has food pubs and shops within walking distance of site. Yes there is road noise but we do at home so not a problem. Definitely coming back!

1 night camper van stay

A nice site in a road noise affected location. The wardens Kay and Rick are really nice and helpful and the site was spotless. Lots of useful information given on check in. Facilities kept clean and site was looked after. We slept in our pop-top camper which probably made it noisier, our neighbours in a motorhome said they could hear the noise at night. The small but spacious site is close to shops. Across the road are plenty of shops including KFC, The Food Warehouse,Matalan and Halfords. Sainsbury, Tesco,Costa, Starbucks and a pub is only a 10-15 min walk away. The road noise is not bad on pitches 18,19 and 20. Toilet/shower block closes between 10:30 and 11:30 is very clean and have excellent hot showers. Alternative toilets available 24/7. Laundary and dish washing room were also very clean. All refuse areas well labelled. MSP very clear. A good clean and friendly site worthy of using again.

Traffic Noise….Remember when pitching up!

For us personally once pitched up, we explore by foot or public transport. Our first visit to Rowan Park, we was aware for traffic noise from previous reviews so thought we knew what to expect. It was even worse than we imagined. Unfortunately most pitches where traffic noise was a little less were taken. Having said that all pitches you will hear traffic because of the close proximity to busy roads. Lots of info given on check in. Facilities kept clean and site was looked after. Even told don’t mind wether you drive in or reverse in, just not sideways. (Of course not ) I explained our habitation door is European side so we always drive onto pitches for this reason. On our last day we had someone pitch up next to us and their habitation door faced ours. As they also drove onto pitch. Never had this before and won’t again had we not been leaving next day I would of said something. Not a nice feeling constantly feel eyes watching us. They left their door open a lot, which made me keep my blinds closed. I guess this is fine if your with friends but definitely not complete strangers. Also a little confused as to why cones and closed sign over pitch number on 3 pitches. The 4 nights we were there no one used them. Even on leaving site pitches on the left of exit all had cones.

Spoilt by the traffic noise.

A nice site in a terrible location. The wardens are really nice & the site spotless. There is non stop traffic noise including boy racers charging around in the early hours. People walking their dogs at 02:00 in the morning, talking and bottle crashing in the early hours. I guess they couldn’t sleep due to the noise. I wish I’d read the reviews before I booked. The site seems to have been swallowed by new roads & development. We have a pop-top camper. The noise was a nightmare. John

Excellent

This site is brilliant. The small but spacious site is close to shops. Across the road is The Food Warehouse, Halfords and Matalan while Sainsbury, Tesco,Costa, Pets @ Home and a pub is only a 10-15 min walk. Rick and Kay are really friendly and helpful. The road noise isn't bad on pitch 31 & 32, its a dull noise. Bathrooms are very clean and have good hot showers. For dog owners there is a the common next door that is popular with local dog walking and can get busy. This is definitely down as one of my fav sites thus far. I WILL be returning. Leah x
