Anonymous Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch (pet friendly, small)
Liked Spacious pitches and clean showers.
Disliked States its a dog friendly site but this wasn't the case as we could not take our dog out in an evening with us. We was rudely told to leave the entertainment area. I would not recommend if you have a dog and I would not return in the future.
Recommend to friends Visit again
