Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Beautiful location. Morning greeting from the bullocks in the next field. Wildlife in the area,hares,pheasant, barn owls etc. Water available at the site hook up ,very convenient.
Disliked: Boggy, unlevel pitches ,no lighting (arrived in darkness and torrential rain and rain every day , so perhaps we didn't see the site at it's best.) Bins overflowing and zero contact from the site owners .We understood that they were busy with a new baby but a text or phonecall to check that all was well during atrocious weather conditions would have been nice.

From the manager: Hi Thanks for staying with us. I had sent numerous messages saying get in touch if you had any questions or issues. I had just had surgery so wasn't on site. The site is big and there was only 2 vans staying so there was ample space to have a level pitch and as much space as you needed. IThanks
Fantastic site. Would stay again!
