Electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: Location on the top field was great as we managed to get a level pitch they have for camlervans. Views where great and we got an awsome sunrise & sunset. Facilities where clean and close to the pitch.
Disliked: A couple of people ignored the dog on the lead rule but it wasn't a big issue just more frustrating. We couldn't get WiFi on the top field but didn't bother us. Would be better if a section was adult only.

Liked: Everything! The second we arrived on site, a hugely pleasant and helpful guy on reception welcomed us wholeheartedly, and explained where we could pitch our tent. The site was immaculately clean. From the ground , to the facilities, there was nothing you could pick fault with. Fantastic location, great views. Highly recommended.
Disliked: Nothing. Perfect.
