Liked: Very friendly welcome from the couple who were running the site on their FIRST day. They could not have been more friendly and helpful. Clean site, well spaced, with improvements on the way to improve bins and recycling.
Disliked: No bins other than the ones at the entrance.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: I stayed at this site for 3 nights. I had a very friendly welcome from Andy and Jenny. It was their first day on the job, and whilst I was on site, they worked tirelessly to improve the campsite. The reception was being decorated at the time. My hardstanding pitch was perfectly level. The site is surrounded by mature trees and has a very relaxed feel about it. The facilities block is a little tired but kept nice and cleen and the push button shower was lovely and hot. The wash up room had two nice big sinks with a washing machine and dryer in it. As the site is under new ownership, I expect improvements will be made to waterpoints and wastewater dumping which was a bit antequated. I would stay here again.
Disliked: Constant hum of traffic from the M20 and A20 which border the site.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The location was fab - just moments off the the M20/M26, however far enough away to not hear road noise. The hosts were amazing - from the moment I turned onto the property to leaving at the end of my stay, I was made to feel incredibly welcomed. I loved my pitch location. The showers were nice and warm. Everything was clean.
Disliked: The taps in the washroom stay on for a matter of seconds which made washing my hands a little difficult, but this is such a minimal issue and certainly not a deciding factor, especially as it’s easy enough to keep pushing the button down!
