Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Great site
Quiet area
Good little playpark
Clean campsite
Good & clean toilet & wash areas
Great pub/drink area
Friendly staff
Disliked 1 little spoiler:
Took my 6yr old daughter to toilet and got told off by a worker/cleaner that I wasn't allowed to do this.
It was just myself & daughter on a camping trip
Tried to ask him if he worked there and he was very cagey. But was cleaning/wiping showers down so I presume he did work there
Made my daughter feel like scared! He wasn't pleasant!
