Why stay here ...

Stamford Club Site is set in a tranquil, open meadowland location surrounded by attractive woodland. The caravan park is a superb place for leisurely wanderings in lovely landscapes; birds, deer and a profusion of wild flowers will delight the senses. Within a short distance from the caravan park you have the town of Stamford - one of the most perfectly preserved stone towns in England, it has a rich history and boasts many historic medieval buildings (BBC's Middlemarch was filmed here).

Also within easy access from Stamford Club Site, you can opt for a romantic cruise on the Rutland Belle or enjoy a scenic walk along the 27 miles of Rutland Water shoreline. There are cycling paths and forest walks conveniently leading from the caravan site entrance and for garden lovers, Geoff Hamilton's horticultural legacy - Barnsdale Gardens at Oakham - are superb. Tucked away in the woods is a wildlife hide, ideal for watching birds, insects and other wildlife such as deer.

Please note: this site does not have a toilet block.

Thank you

What a year it’s been, however I’d like to say a massive thanks to Paul and Gill for an excellent recovery from the pandemic. The warmth and friendliness was outstanding. You really made a massive difference to a very difficult time. You made a real relaxing difference to my front line working. Paul newbery.

Return to the Stamford Gem

Just back from a superb week at Stamford Fineshade site. The site is extremely well maintained & run, site set in glorious wooden parkland, the wardens do a sterling job no wonder many members return. With several walks directly from the site it's a walkers paradise & the dogs love it too. Our October week for next year is already booked. A short drive from Stamford with super shopping & many other local attractions. We think this is one of the best sites on the club's circuit & definitely one of our top six.

Fantastic Restful Week

Thank you Gill for a splendid weeks break, just what we needed, nothing to do, nowhere we needed to go or be, just sit back and relax. Loved your husbands chalkboard sayings. Shame about all that rain but certainly cleared the air, water drained away very quickly and the sun shone on us all, magic. On our way home now and back to normal, until next time. Thank you

Good spot

Central location for rutland water,stamford,peterborough.well kept site with Friendly wardens,plenty doing locally of you enjoy walks and cycling. As previously mentioned,”no visitors” but some are ignoring this rule. The club also need to look at arrival / departure times such as off by noon and no arrivals til 13:00.it was farcical when we arrived with at least 6 units arriving simultaneously and meeting units leaving bang on noon and blocking access roads for all...the access road is also narrow with passing places . Will return next year hopefully

Lovely site, friendly wardens, clearly says on entering site, ‘no visitors allowed’ this was abused by our neighbours on 2 days, is it one rule for some and not for anyone else.
