Daughter got stuck in the shower blocks!
Electric optional grass pitch
Liked Lovely walk to local village and really nice lake and beach over the road, good sized private pitches. Felt really homely
Disliked Showers need serious attention as my daughter (aged 10) got stuck in the and had to get the lady from reception to rescue her who had NO urgency to do so. I got stuck in them also but was able to climb over the door. Shower flooded and also light failed late at night! The position of the sky lights in shower block enables people to see down into the blocks also. Not very well thought of!!
