Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The flat pitches . The pitch area kept neat. Very peaceful and quiet. Looked pretty. Staff were very kind and helpful.
Disliked: The toilets are very dated and the paintwork isn’t very nice. The restaurant was the reason we chose this site and it was closed ( I saw on the website it’s closed several days of the week). There is nothing roundabout in walking distance. You can’t walk on the side of the road to anywhere as there is no path and the roads are narrow. I didn’t like that the dish wash area wasn’t covered. The showers had mold in them and I understand that the size of the showers is predetermined based on what was before but I’m not big and I felt it was too small to have a comfortable shower so we left after that night and I went straight to a better site and got a shower

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The site was beguiling in the approach, and checking very friendly and straightforward. The staff member checked my price, and charged me less than I anticipated because I’d booked it wrong! Super helpful. The pitch was spacious and flat and the electricity and water station in a useful position. The Railway Inn has a very traditional pub feel, and the staff and patrons incredibly friendly. Drinks prices in the pub were very reasonable and in a true English pub style, the had a ‘turn’ for a Friday night. A great singer performed some timeless hits appealing to locals, visitors, young and old. The pub was rocking, but not too late! I was tucked up in my camper van by 10.30pm and all was lovely and quiet. The toilets and showers were clean, functional, and the shower nice and hot. I was slightly concerned it was a push to use shower but the shower stayed on for a reasonable amount of time, I pushed it 3 times during my shower (I’ve had to press it about 20 times in other places!). I will definitely be back here! Thank you for a fab stay.
Disliked: Nothing!
