Liked It is a wonderful place to stay. Great pub, all bar staff were so friendly and accommodating. Will definitely visit again
Disliked When you work in hospitality and are dealing with the public, it is good to have good communication skills. Unfortunately, the female owner of the camp site was lacking in this. Very abrupt at times and made some guests feel uncomfortable. She needs to smile more and be more friendly towards the people who are paying to stay there. Instead, she appeared annoyed that she was serving food at 7pm. Also give us someone else’s food when we were sat outside, just looked at us as though it was our fault.
Hope this lady does take this on board as it is a lovely place to stay

Anonymous Electric grass pitch
Liked Nice quiet campsite midweek, a bit more livlier weekends. Nicely cut grass, water and waste disposal easy to access. Ladies toilets have been upgraded. Nice welcome and shown to the pitch. Nice pub with lots of locals frequenting it. Delicious meal on "fish Friday".
Disliked Squeaky kids play equipment. Disappointing pie meal - crust very hard.
