Morning All

I know it’s still officially the spring but with a few days of warm, sunny weather it feels like summer has arrived ! Preparations continue for the main season (see pool photo) and we are looking forward to opening the bar, restaurant, takeaway and swimming pool next week. The facilities will then remain open until September. The Jubilee bank holiday weekend will be busy for us, we only have a handful of pitches left, so get in touch soon if you plan to come and see us. Also we are planning some form of celebration for the bank holiday Monday, I will let you know more when I know more !

Keep watching,enjoy the weather and hope to see you all soon.

Hello again to all

There are a number of major events in Plymouth over the next few months. I have summarised these below with the relevant dates for your diary.

Olympic Torch Relay – 19th May                                Concluding with a fantastic evening of live entertainment on Plymouth Hoe. The same day also features the Lord Mayor’s Show with a carnival procession through the City Centre.

National Armed Forces Day – 30th June                      Plymouth is fortunate to be the host city this year for the National Armed Forces Day, when everyone can see and pay tribute to our wonderful armed forces. A spectacular and exciting day of entertainment, air and sea displays and activities for the whole family is planned.

British Fireworks Championships – 14th & 15th August         The most anticipated event in the city’s annual events calendar will see thousands of spectators heading up to the Hoe for two evenings of entertainment culminating in spectacular fireworks displays.

In addition to the above Plymouth will also feature FlavourFest, P1 Powerboats series, Music of the Night and many others. I will post more details of all events closer to the time but if you want view details yourself please visit -

Another sunny day at Riverside

Posted on by

Morning All

Well like most of the country we are basking in unseasonably warm weather and this has brought in many spontaneous bookings (see photo). It has also encouraged many to book earlier for their break with us so a gentle reminder to all that if you are particular about dates then please get in touch sooner rather than later. Thank you to those that have commented on our new blogs and how useful they have found them. I will continue to try and keep everyone informed about all things Riverside and what’s going on within the area. The latest local news is that the local peregrine falcon project has now started their watch on the river and they expect 40,000 visitors this year ! For more details visit www.plym-peregrines.co.uk which gives full details of the project but also what delightful wildlife can be found in our area. At Riverside we have commenced work on a dedicated motorhome service point. I will blog again with further details when I have them.

Thanks to all again for listening, hope to see you soon
