"Hurley Riverside Park has become one of our regular weekend sites because it is consistently good! The pitches are large and well spaced. Toilet and shower facilities are good. Warm and have good pressure providing you avoid the absolute peak times. The staff are always very friendly and the on site shop has essentials. The proximity to the Thames is also great for exercising and cooling off dogs and great for walking with pubs in either direction along the Thames path. Highly recommend this site!"
Charlie Daniels
"This is our 4 visit as we love how this site is taking care of. The location is brilliant for water sports and walking in the river. The pitches are are divided up in to smaller holdings making it a great space for everyone. The shower and toilet blocks are brilliant and so clean. There's a dog cleaning station and brilliant facilities to clean all your pots and pans. The staff are great and the shop is well stocked. A great open space to play games and has football goals, there's a park and nature trail on site a map is available for free. No music is to be played late evening so it's great for everyone for a good night's sleep. Overall a 5* stay"

"Lovely site. Large pitches. Excellent facilities. Well kept. Toilets and showers were in great condition and kept clean (despite some extremely scummy people abusing them).
Will definitely stay here again if I'm in the area."
