From the manager: Thanks for your feedback, Johnny. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay with us. We made a conscious decision not to allow cars on the camping field for the safety of our younger guests. Even the furthest pitch is only about 50 steps from the car parking area, and many people lift their things straight over the fence that divides the two. Since your stay we've added a small activity area for children and are overhauling our facilities. We hope to welcome you back to see these additions soon.
Excellent site clean facilities and friendly staff.
