Good site and would use again.
Electric optional hardstanding and grass pitch
Liked This is a big site with good facilities and good access to the local area. It's obviously popular with the boating and canoeing crowd with easy access to the water. Also....lots of ducks!
Disliked The facilities are a little dated....cleaned and functional but things like having coin operated showers with the coin box on the outside of the shower put me off using them. I couldn't work out how you could insert a new token if your water ran out whilst showering.
