Liked: Leaving
Disliked: No hot water to wash up, food residue left in all 4 sinks for 3 days. No hooks in at least 2 of the 6 showers. Showers spray everything in the cubical. If there is a cleaner, they need to sack them and get someone who knows how to clean. We did not see any of the owners/ employees of the site. No welcome and no checks.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Lovely rural site, with plenty of space. Nice shower block.
Disliked: Only cold water to wash dishes. There were 2 small groups of younger adults that were noisy well into the early hours. There was no thought for anyone else. The music was loud abs there was lots of laughter and foul language. Judging by the smell, they were likely smoking weed too.
