Anonymous Electric grass tent pitch
Liked friendly & helpful reception staff - close parking to pitches, costa coffee in the creations cafe, well stocked spar shop. plenty of facilities - decent value food. older kids enjoyed the park areas. had no problems with signal but you could purchase wifi for £5pd
Disliked booking system for every single thing was annoying, we didn’t visit during peak season so it wasn’t particularly busy. some areas awkward to access with a buggy, lack of basic crayons and paper to keep little ones amused while older ones did their thing. lack of park facilities for toddlers.

Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked Very friendly staff, good size pitch with water, grey waste and electricity all included. Considering the price this is greta value for money.
The outdoor pool was heated and to a good temperature unlike most others we have stayed at.
The prices at the bar and shop seemed to be very reasonable which was a surprise.
Toilets/showers although a little tired were
Very clean and well respected.
The clientele onsite was also an improvement on others sites.
Disliked Despite the site being very quiet we’re still only allowed in the outdoor pool for a hour before the life guards asked you to leave.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked The drive into the site, site looked well kept.
Disliked When entering our motorhome area we struggled to find our pitch and after asking other motorhome users found that someone was already on there. My partner called the office and was told just to take a empty slot. It was a hot day and the baby just wanted to go out and play but we where on a gravel car park site which was blowing dust around and he just kept complaining of the gravel hurting his feet. We made some food and then had to hunt for a place to wash the dishes which was also quite far away and resulted in more stress trying to keep the baby occupied in a place he was happy to wander off in. We went back to the motorhome and tried to book the pool for him because he seen the pool when entering the site and spent all afternoon with his swimming goggles on . We couldn't get wifi, 4g 5g, or even phone signal so my partner walked up to the road to try and get the WiFi password which no one seemed to know and he ended up paying £7 just to be able to book something for the baby to do. Low and behold 3 night we had booked and all activities where fully booked so couldn't entertain him at all. He started to play up because he seen all the things that he couldn't do and is to young to understand bookings. We stayed the 1 of 3 nights because it was a long drive and spend a few hours the next morning contemplating if the 3 nights at this site was going to be any good for any of us. We packed up and hunted for a site that even just having a park on would be better for keeping him happy. I won't be visiting this site again.
Issues such as
No WiFi
No signal
Fully booked activities
Gravel site in which prevented us pegging out our awning
No help from staff even after making calls to find out WiFi password or if the activities where available.
It was no good for my 4 year old and just made the stay un bearable
Not enough activity spaces for the amount of people on site.

Liked Was in a lovely part of north Devon
Disliked Lots of complaints coming from the pub due to long wait and then the food being cold. Witnessed staff being so negative when outside trying to find people thst had ordered food. We then went to the club and ordered food. This also came cold and the chicken was so hard. Stayed on a hard standing pitch. Your that close to others and no room to turn your vehicle. We were supposed to stay for 4 days, we spent 1 night. Extremely disappointed. Will not be returning
