This is a developing site with large, level hard standing pitches, many offering water and optional metered electricity on pitch. Visitors consistently praise the spaciousness and the unique bonus of observing donkeys and other rescue animals. The location is considered convenient for the NEC and local amenities, with nearby canal walks and pubs. While some road noise is noted, it is generally not considered intrusive overnight.

Excellent site.
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Excellent lines of communication - on line booking through club membership, on arrival was clearly directed to our pitch even without the manager being there.
Electricity was easy to access via QR code on the connection box on the pitch.
Water connection also on pitch. All in all excellent value and perfect for a stopover - with the added bonus of Donkeys, Alpacas and sheep to make the site comfortable.
