Liked: Lovely site, very friendly atmosphere. Clean and well maintained toilets and showers. Well kitted out facilities. Free pool table and table tennis which was nice. Plus most pitches had their own fire pit which was a nice touch. The site owner was really friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Liked: Clean tidy and everything you need
Disliked: Some of the metal baskets inside the showers are rusty and not looking great.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your kind review and I am glad we were able to offer everything you needed! You make a valid point about about the metal baskets and you may find it hard to believe that I replace these quite regularly but water and metal do not mix! You may have also seen the white plastic basket in the shower room too - but even that is not lasting very well. It is a problem. If anyone has any advice or tips on how to keep these metal shower baskets looking good - please let me know! Or maybe there is a brand that does not rust. I may take them down completely. Hopefully this won't put you off returning to visit! Best wishes Tina

From the manager: Thank you so much for your kind words and review. I am very pleased that you have used the word 'relaxing' as I definitely see my site as more of a retreat which is why we are always mindful of noise and don't allow music etc on site. We love dogs too and they are very welcome. Hopefully they found the doggie treats! I look forward to welcoming you back. x

Disliked: Electric hook up would be the icing on the cake.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Exceptional! What a lovely word to use. Thank you for your kind comments. I know everyone asks about electric hookup but sadly - with the hideous energy costs - I don't think this is something that I will be contemplating in the near future. I only hope access to the plugs and electricity inside the facilities made camping a little more pleasant for you. I look forward to welcoming you back. Warm wishes Tina

Liked: Neatness of site. Cleanliness of facilities. Honestly shop fully stocked. Although non electric they provide hairdryers, fridge freezer, toaster, microwave and an area you can charge your phones.

From the manager: What a lovely review - thank you for your kind words. We work very hard at ensuring the site is always clean and welcoming - and it has been hard work with all the rain we have had and endless mud being carted into the shower/toilet facilities. I am so pleased you appreciated all the little electrical items. They can make such a difference to a stay - especially if the weather is poor. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back. Warm wishes Tina
