Why stay here ...
Set in the heart of Bedfordshire, Dirok CL is the perfect place to recharge your batteries and switch off from day-to-day life in a peaceful setting with generously sized pitches set in two acres of land. Away from the hustle and bustle of city life, Dirok CL is in the middle of fields with mature trees where chirping birds come to nest.
Surrounded by nature, bridle paths and woodland, Dirok CL provides ample opportunities to relax, walk or cycle to local landmarks and amenities. The woodland on our doorstep is the perfect spot for dog walkers, giving our furry friends the opportunity to burn some energy.
Dirok is located a stone's throw away from the A1(M), making it an ideal stop-over when travelling up or down the country and you want to break your journey up. For those planning on a longer stay, Dirok's location makes it a great base to visit towns, cities and landmarks in the South of England.
The nearby town of Potton has some great pubs. 'The Rising Sun', 'The Royal Oak' and 'The Coach House' all have great reviews and are within walking distance.
The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) is headquartered nearby and provides visitors of all ages with a must-see wildlife nature reserve and nature trails.
For the exhilarating experience of seeing the Bedfordshire countryside from the air, the Bedford Microlight Centre is located a few miles away.
Day trips to Cambridge (20 miles), the Newmarket races (35 miles) or the Duxford Museum and Air Show (22 miles) are all within easy reach. For a bit of World War II history, RAF Tempsford SOE Barn (4 miles) is around the corner. The train station in Sandy is within easy reach of Dirok and from there you can be in the centre of London in less than an hour.
Our price is inclusive of a 10A electric hook-up, and be it for a quick stop-over onto your final destination or a longer stay, we will make sure that your time with us is as enjoyable as can be.

Peaceful and relaxing
Dirok
Lovely small site with nice large level pitches with water and hook-ups, black waste area. Perfect place to unwind.
Easy walk into town, plenty of wood walks and nature, a real doggy heaven. Proprietors friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend.
Lovely site
Dirok
Very peaceful. Made very welcome. Bonus of using the Barky Park to let the dogs have a run. Do follow the directions to find it as it is out of the way by vehicle but footpaths close by for dog or human walks.
Good for a stopover, good value for money!
Dirok
I would have given a higher score but for 2 issues. 1 in the owners control and the other not. 1st the numbering of the pitches is either missing on some pitches or not obvious. I actually set up on the incorrect pitch and only discovered so when I went to connect the power and saw the pitch number on the top of the pylon so had to then move to the correct pitch. In fact another unit arrived and the couple where wandering around looking for their allocated pitch until I was able to direct them. Obviously this would not have happened had Serge been on site when I arrived. Incidentally he is a very welcoming and pleasant man.
Issue 2: the site is populated by very large Rooks that at this time of year, June are feeding fledglings and make an incredible racket from dawn to dusk! I suspect the Rookery is a constant feature.
On the plus side it is possible to hook up to the water so no need to fill the water hogs. Electric is metered so be warned.
Big Tip! make sure you follow the very exact directions or you may find your self getting stuck.
Perfect site for switching off
Dirok
From the moment we arrived, with the extremely warm welcome from Serge, we felt all the stresses of everyday life melt away. Dirok is perfectly located for ultimate tranquility, with its sounds of nature and views across the Bedfordshire countryside showing its ideal location.
The site is tucked away seemingly in 'the middle of nowhere', yet within a 20 minute walk you can find yourself in Potton, a little town that offers more than its size; a handful of pubs, a few restaurants and a very handy mini-market for those essential food/drink top-ups.
We also ventured in the opposite direction from the site and found huge expenses of walkways and open land to walk the dog and work off a few more calories to justify the extra glass of beer and wine!
We'll definitely be back to Dirok, especially as it's less than an hour from our own home. Big thanks to Serge (and Gill) for having us at your site. You run the CL just perfectly. :)

Brilliant CL. Lovely welcome, views and walks direct from site.
Dirok
Be sure to head up the drive towards the bungalow on arrival and then the drive to the CL becomes clear but it does look like you are driving into someone's front garden at first but this is correct. What a super site, lovely welcome and introduction. Good facilities and super walks both into Potton for shops and pubs/fish and chips etc and in the other direction to RSPB Potton for a cuppa or ice cream. Many public footpaths to lengthen or shorten your walk.
We had a lovely stay and as well as walking from site visited St Neots, a walk South down the River from there brings you to the Riverside Mill which is so pretty for drinks and food. St Neots park/River centre is worth a little look as well.
Loved the site, pretty flat, HUGE pitches and the owners were good and accommodating. We used 29 units of electric over the 3 nights so didn't have to pay any extra as 10 units a night was included.
