Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: We stayed on the hard standing pitches with water and electric hook-up. The site was easy to get to, a friend had just bought a motorhome and this was her first trip out in it, so she didn't want to have to navigate thin, windy lanes. The pitches were a nice size and there were a number of picnic tables available that you could move onto your pitch.
The shower block was basic, but clean with ample toilet roll.
The pub was friendly and the food was reasonably priced and tasty, albeit we booked in after a group of 11 diners so had a bit of a wait until our meals were served. There was a singer on the Friday night (which we didn't go to) and a karaoke on the Saturday night.
Disliked: The site is situated next to a railway line and whilst we appreciated there would be some train noise we weren't expecting the significant number of trains running through the night on the Friday and were awoken a number of times.
