What customers say
Visitors praise the spacious pitches, friendly staff, and clean facilities. The site's location is convenient for nearby attractions. Some guests noted a lack of sufficient toilet and shower facilities, especially during peak times, and occasional noise from the adjacent go-kart track and venue. Improvements to the shower block are planned.

Liked Great location near to go kart track, water sports and fishing. Amenities mostly clean.
The site was quiet and peaceful however there was a group of campers who were quite loud but they were celebrating so fair enough.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Helpful staff,
Good location
Clean facilities shop, toilet block and shower block. Communal fridge and freezer and washing up area.
Disliked Loud busy site. Partying until early hours of the morning. People screaming laughing and shouting really loudly outside the tent driving their cars up and down the field in the middle of the night (very dangerous) car doors constantly opening and closing and have thier lights shining full beam into your tent. Went quiet about 2am both nights! Super close to one another no privacy

From the manager: Thanks for taking the time to review. It's against our rules to drive around at night, past 9pm no one should be driving on the field and I do hope you reported this because as you said its very dangerous. Similarly if it was loud after 11pm, which is our quiet time, I hope you called the out of hours phone number so we could deal with any noise accordingly. Frustratingly some people do not have respect and should know that being loud is going to cause a disruption. Thanks for visiting anyway :)
