Tollesbury Marina Cruising Club

Its actually shocking that this campsite promises so much, offers so little and gets away with it.Firstly, the cost is £34 per night. Compared to a site nearby, offering beautifully manicured lawns, heated bathrooms, wifi throughout and a 24 hour warden on site, all with a similar cost, I thought Tollesbury would offer similar options.On their ukcampsite listing Tollesbury offers the following Wifi Disabled friendly Sea views. Recycling optionsNone of this is true. Wifi is only provided at the restaurant which is nowhere near the campsite The campsite is not disabled friendly. The toilets and showers are a very long walk away, in the restaurant and can only be accessed by climbing several st...

Toilets are quite a walk from the camp site Needs to think about more dog friendly options as those with dogs can’t eat indoors in the restaurant (not good if it rains , can’t use swimming pool or the small beach. I do und...

Years ago I kept my boat in Tollesbury marina and I thought I'd take a friend to see the place and possibly have a drink in the bar. We found ourselves looking at the menu which seemed very appealing and decided to have lunch; I'm very glad we did ! The food was excellent and served rapidly despite a large party also eating in the restaurant. The food is largely, but not exclusively, seafood and offers quite a wide range of choice. Our starters and main courses were so good we've already arranged with friends to take them there !The view over the harbour is attractive and peaceful , there's plenty of parking at the rear of the building and also the opportunity to do a coastal walk before or...
