Boundary powered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site (XL)
Liked: Flat pitches. Very large area for our pitch. Quiet and relaxed site. Felt very safe with the coded gate and felt happy for the kids to be off exploring by themselves
Disliked: Sounds very fussy but the bathroom sink was small with only two taps and with the shape of it was square so was pretty dirty in the corners.

Liked: good clean site as well as toilet/shower area Respectful other campers and not too noisy.
Disliked: be good if you can choose pitch as both times we have been weve been put in front of the toilet block so can be a little noisy with people going past all the time.

Liked: Really great facilities and such a friendly feel! Lots of space for the kids to play- they had an absolute ball- we will definitely be back and highly recommend for families.
Disliked: The only small thing was the showers were very hot and non adjustable but definitely rather hot than too cold!!

Liked: Absolutely fantastic site. Immaculate tent pitches. The toilet and shower facilities were super clean and modern. The site was peaceful, no rowdy or noisy stayers waking you up super early. Walks along the canal were fantastic. We will definitely be visiting again.
Disliked: Nothing.

Powered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked: Toilets/Shower rooms are unmatched to anything we've seen before, honestly put our house to shame! Amazing! We were slightly concerned on the 2/2 layout when the site got busy but it never seemed an issue. Would love to see the old shop converted into a wash room with a few sinks for teeth/freshing up. The site was wonderful and felt really relaxed for us with our friends. Lucy was super helpful and always felt 'around' checking the site. Our friends were allowed to pitch up just next to us so we felt close even though no defined pitch was there. Nice little walk to The Badger Inn which I must say a lovely we had a Lunch and also Sunday Dinner here. They were dog friendly and the service was great, they even offered 10% discount for service workers which is fantastic. We don't often stay around this area as it was a last minute booking but we would certainly come back if we do. No Wifi so rated as 5.
Disliked: Cleaning equipment for the toilet no one likes leaving it for someone else at least we don't a simple silicone brush. Squeegee for the shower to mop down after use which we're used to doing. Add a mirror to the exit as the road is busy at times and didn't enjoy the blind pull out to the right. Overall recommendations rather than dislikes this is a great site in it's infancy! Well done Lucy & Team.

From the manager: Hello Jay, Thank you for your super comments. In reply to your recommendations: Unfortunately, not everyone is as honest and lovely as we hope. I have had a lot of stuff stolen and even the workings of a soap dispenser taken, so for that reason I don't have anything 'moveable' anymore. The mirror, yes, I agree would be very useful, however, our local Council don't allow them! I hope to see you all again sometime.
