Lee Valley Camping and Caravan Park

I booked my tent onto this campsite for two nights in order to kill two birds with one stone! My partner had never been to London before, but wanted to go away camping - so this was the perfect solution to my problem!!

The site itself was ideal!! The toilet and shower blocks were very clean, and the rest of the site very tidy.

Having previously lived in east London, I opted not to take the bus routes (which stops right outside the camp) into the city, but instead drive into Walthamstow to connect with the underground. Driving from the campsite to Selbourne Walk shopping centre in Walthamstow takes around 15 minutes (Selbourne road - for satnav'ers). The shopping centre has ample parking which is well lit and has CCTV. For a days parking it cost me £5.

Selbourne Walk is directly opposite Walthamstow Central underground station, which is on the Victoria Line (zone 3) which goes to Oxford Circus or Kings X to connect with other lines.

So, all in all, this site is perfectly located, with very friendly staff, and good facilities!

I'm already planning a return visit!

first the best thing about this place is its so close to transport and london.it takes around 20 mins from leaving your caravan to being in the middle of lonon.The bus top is just outside the parks gates and the office provides day transport passes.with them you can go on any train,bus or tube all day for about a fiver each.brill.you would never have imagined this place was so close to london because of all the green space.And its next to the lee valley sports place so you might see some famouse sports people there.

the only bad thing about this place is that it can get a bit crowded when its at full capacity.And when we went the whole of the french scout group was peacticaly there and they were a bit noisy.

overall its a freat place and we are booking another trip to london with them in the future.
