Christine and I have just returned from a really wonderful long weekend at the Lucksall Park, just outside Hereford. It wasn’t supposed to be a long weekend but the Park, its pristine setting and the staff attitudes persuaded us to stay an extra day.

Owner Gary was so welcoming that everything on entry fell into place immediately and our reserved pitch ready for us when we arrived at about 2pm. We were all sorted with awning up and relaxing at 3pm.

We had a hard standing pitch of enormous size, and there are smaller grass pitches backing on to the River Wye for the Fishermen.

Amenities abound. There is a café/bar if you feel extra lazy and don’t want to cook yourself. Spotless and welcoming.

Walks on the adjoining hill were available for those that want to. There were lots of pretty flora, not so sure about fawna, but stories abounded about a really interesting walk.

Separate walk has been allocated for Dogs, which ours just loved.

Have to mention the Toilet Block facilities. Just excellent, very clean and easy to use with constant running hot water all day. Couldn’t ask for more!

So if you want a really upmarket Caravan Park with excellent hosting staff, alongside the River Wye, bursting with shrubs giving off delightful fragrances throughout the park look no further.

    Hi, yes it's a really lovely well run park.  Very friendly and helpful.  We found the pitches were great as they were in blocks bordered by hedges, so it was sheltered and you didn't have people wandering through your pitch which seems to be more  and more
    prevalent now.  Amenities were as mentioned spotless and a well stocked shop.  We don't have a dog so we couldn't ask it what it thought of the walk but we did go across the road walking in the 32 acres (i think) woods whcih are owned by the site.  Very enjoyable
    for flora and fawna.  There is also a pleasant walk around the edge of the woods through the orchards and down to the 'Moon' public house which we were told did excellent meals.  When you settle in the evening it's great to listen to the pigs and sheep on
    the adjacent hill.

    One other thing you can do is canoe off the site along the Wye.

    It's also in a great location for getting to Hereford and Ross on Wye. One piece of advice if you're coming in from the north by motorway use the M50, it's looks further but it's a much better approach.

    All in all a great site as stated and prices compare with 'normal' Caravan Club site prices.
