Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Absolutely stunning location in The middle of nowhere, but only a short drive from civilization, beautiful views of the county side and hills, nothing but farm animals fresh air and tranquility! Clean tidy WiFi for the kids or movies, what more could you ask for 👍🏼😊
Disliked Because it’s quite isolated forgot some basics like milk and didnt want to have to drive back to the shops but could have been tooth paste, shower gel, probably just worth mentioning and or where the nearest shops and pubs etc are
