@CazPaul. Avoid Billing Aquadrome like the plague Paul & Carol. It's notorious for having kit and bikes, etc, being pinched during the night.

Sorry, but I can't recommend sights to see, as I'm always driving through Northants rather than stopping. I'm not sure what the city has to offer, but Bletchley Park (Enigma code breakers) is only half an hour further south, and is definitely worth a visit. Ample parking for the MH, and you can to and fro from the MH to check the dogs, as often as you like.

Bletchley Park.

Cheers,

Jock.

Thanks for the info re Billing. I got invited to another Bbq cookoff later this year there, when I looked at their website I started to have doubts, much prefer smaller sites or CL's.

No probs. It's always had the same problem, since a certain element of the travelling community settled in closeby. One or two Funsters on here have been victims of theft, when on a Birthday Meet a few years ago. One would have had his MH stolen, whilst he was in the reception reporting another theft, had his wife not been sat in the rear at the time.

Cheers,

Jock.

Always interested in sites around Northampton, relatives, over the winter we stay at Waterloo Leisure, more Market Harborough though so you need a car, good hardstanding good walks etc ..

Billing Aquadrome really pongs if the wind is in the wrong direction.

By March, more sites open also non hardstanding becoming an option, used sites in Sywell but tend to avoid in the winter.

There is a marina based site (Whitemills) that we shall be checking out next time we swing past.
