If you're anything like us you'll think you have packed everything you need for your break - then on your way you'll remember that the chicken is still in the fridge and the dog food has been left behind!
You're likely to be driving past either Oakham or Melton Mowbray, both towns are well provided with supermarkets but some have limited parking and tight access, so please have a read of the below.
If you need caravan or motorhome spares, then Melton Mowbray has a great little stop-off; closest parking is in the carpark opposite the train station. (If you've forgotten basics like a hook-up cable, hose pipe etc then we'll usually have something we can lend you. Give us a ring to make sure)
We generally have plenty of fresh milk, eggs, sweets and snacks in the campsite shop, we also have plenty OS maps available to borrow. Don't forget that Whissendine has a great village store selling food & essentials (including alcohol) - open 'til 7pm on weekdays and midday on Sunday.
Either Sainsburys or Tesco are your best choices if you have a caravan or motorhome. If you are in a campervan then Aldi is a good bet:
The Co-op is your best bet if you have a caravan or motorhome as it has a huge car park and fuel station. Tesco is tricky to get to in the centre of town and the small carpark is always very busy and has titchy parking spaces. Aldi is worth a try, though the carpark is small and often very busy. There is a M&S at the filling station next to Aldi too, It's expensive but OK for essentials.
PLEASE SEE OUR DIRECTIONS PAGE - DON'T USE YOUR SATNAV FOR THE LAST PART OF YOUR JOURNEY.
Many of our campers come here time and again. They love the peace and tranquility of the campsite and the beautiful surroundings. We rely on them (and you) to respect fellow campers, the surroundings and your environment. This ensures that the campsite maintains a friendly, sociable and relaxed atmosphere where everybody gets along. Several of our customers have met life-long friends at Greendale...
