Electric grass pitch
Liked: Very neat and tidy site. Very quiet. Nice, friendly helpful owner/management.
Disliked: Would have been great if the pub, which is adjoined to the site, had been open. Apparently it's due to open again soon.
The washing up facility could have been a bit nicer.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: It is a beautiful quiet site, with plenty of space per pitch. I convenient field, woodland and pond next to the site for sog walking, exploring and enjoying the sunset over the estuary.
5 mins from Wrabness Nature Reserve and 10 mins from Harwich. Will definitely return. Facilities were clean with warm water and plenty of hand wash soap.
