Liked: Peace and tranquility. Well kept facilities and pleasant surroundings. Fish & chip van visit on Wednesday. I had an issue with my caravan when exiting site. (Coupling became detatched) The on-site cleaning staff were very helpful assisting me to source parts that I needed from local supplier. Paul, the site owner had seen my problem on remote cameras and attended site to offer assistance/help. Support could not have been any better. Paul came across as a very nice guy and gave me an overview of his future plans for the site.

Liked: A lovely quiet and friendly site. Well maintained, with a spotlessly clean toilet and shower block. The fish and chips from the van on Saturday night were a real bonus. The warden and owners were extremely helpful and welcoming. Would definitely recommend.
Disliked: Not a lot to dislike. The ground was very soft due to the weather. It could get quite muddy if the rain continues.

Liked: Really lovely site. Even though there were only 2 toilets & 1 shower, we never had an issue with waiting. Great shower & we happily paid £1 per shower for a lovely hot shower, not interrupted by having to press a button every 20 seconds. Washing up area & elson point very clean & very hot water. Very level pitch & a pleasant seating area in the middle for people to sit, chill with a beer & enjoy a fish pond. Large dog walk area. Each pitch was very spacious. Great Wi-Fi accessible from every pitch. Great area for cycling as whole area very flat Thank you Paul & Lisa for a great stay :)
Disliked: Not particularly good for direct walks out from the site. There’s a short walk on an A road to a quieter lane, although not overly busy, not ideal as have to walk in thicker grass to get off the road.
