Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Clean but dated
Electric grass and gravel touring pitch (super)
Liked Plenty of toilets, sinks and showers. Also has a bath.
Disliked Pitches very close with little privacy or space. No inclusive toilet facilities available and no help with accessing a radar key for the disabled. Told to buy one from Argos! Needs updating and comparable sites have much better toilet blocks now. Focus is on the owners of statics. Could not locate the motorhome service point so had to leave without emptying grey waste tank.
