Liked Absolutely wonderful site, on arrival felt reassured and looked after straight away.

Non-electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Clean and tidy site, beautiful lake.
Disliked Lukewarm welcome from owner who gave impression that we were stopping her from doing other things when we arrived and reception was closed (just after 1 pm, earliest arrival time). Man washing his flat bed with a hose by the pitch we were allocated. The owner did relocate us after a while when I asked for another pitch (but did tell us we would have to wait as she was busy). Wheelchair toilet locked and no ramp over threshold for washing up room or disabled toilet.

Non-electric grass pitch (large)
Liked We loved the Dog walks and lake, it was a lovely spot to pitch.
Toilets and showers were really nice, though we were unable to turn the temperature down, and i didn't realise that there was a 20p charge for the hairdryer.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend 👍
