Exploring the Abbey Wood Caravan and Motorhome Club Site
As the winter frost melts away and spring welcomes the advent of warmer days, there’s no better time to embark on a camping adventure. For my wife Kim and me, this meant an exciting trip to the Abbey Wood Caravan and Motorhome Club Site. With our converted VW Transporter campervan packed full of essentials, we looked forward to exploring London while enjoying the comforts of one of the UK's highly-rated caravan sites.
Accessibility at Its Best
What drew us in was Abbey Wood's convenient location. Just a stone’s throw from central London, the site offers an excellent base for tourists eager to explore the capital. The Caravan and Motorhome Club’s extensive network, which boasts over 2,300 campsites across the UK and into Europe, makes planning these trips exciting and easy.
Simplified Booking Process
Booking at the Abbey Wood site could not be easier. The Caravan and Motorhome Club's website and mobile app offer a user-friendly interface that simplifies site selection. With a modest £5 deposit, we secured our spot and immediately benefited from numerous discounts available for club members. The exciting promise of family-friendly pricing means kids can stay for just £1, enhancing the family's travel budget!
Arrival and First Impressions
Upon our arrival, we were greeted by warm smiles and helpful staff who ensured a smooth check-in. The reception felt welcoming and efficient, making the process hassle-free and enjoyable. It was refreshing to see such dedicated customer service, which set the tone for our stay.
Facilities That Meet Every Need
Our pitch, #58, was spacious and well-equipped with an electric hook-up, and conveniently located near water and waste disposal points—only about 15 meters away. The amenities around the site were not only plentiful but also well-maintained. We appreciated the on-site laundry and the convenient CamperClean services. Despite not using them, their availability added great comfort to our stay.
A Natural Surrounding
What made our time at Abbey Wood even more delightful was its natural beauty. The site is an ideal retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. We were informed by the friendly wardens that green parakeets and woodpeckers frequently visit the area, adding to the wildlife's appeal. As a cat lover, I was particularly charmed by the resident cat, Murphy, who roams the grounds like he owns the place!
The Camping Experience and Exploring London
While the Abbey Wood Club Site offers a great experience, we were also eager to explore London itself. Proximity to public transport—especially the Underground—elevated our adventure as we made our way into the city for sightseeing. With sites like the historic Tower of London and the majestic British Museum just a short ride away, campers can easily transition from the tranquil surroundings of Abbey Wood to the bustling streets of the capital.
