Líbí se Friendly welcome
Countryside location
Lovely bar area
Friendly goats

Nelíbí se The site allows people to play music and several pitches were playing music loud enough to be heard right across the site.
A man on one pitch was flying a drone overhead for several hours and it's illegal to fly within 50 metres of other people

Líbí se This is a gem of a site. The facilities are great and everything on this site is good value for money. Staff are friendly and pleasant.

Líbí se Great campsite with good amount to do. Went on solo one nighter with 3 year old and 1 year old. Safe enough for them to run around. Campers all respectful of speed limits - (roads won’t allow fast anyway) they loved seeing the animals, playing in park and ice lollies of course - really fair prices in the shop. Check in and out easy - great stay - thanks - will be going back.

Líbí se Wonderful campsite! Kept immaculate, friendly staff, child friendly and really good facilities. Only downside was we were only there for two nights!! Would highly recommend and we can't wait to go back 😊

Líbí se The goats and avery were great for the kids. Loads of open space for the kids to play.
The shop and bar were very reasonably priced

Nelíbí se The toilet and shower facilities were not cleaned often enough. The sinks and showers were slow to drain, smelt of urine constantly, no soap in the dispensers and weren’t refilled in the 4 days we were there.

Od správce: Unfortunately again not an accurate review for your time of stay as the majority of reviews show. Facilities are cleaned regularly. The soap dispensers was filled as soon as staff were made aware, and the cleaner also made aware to check more regularly when lots of kids on site - as they're foam they normally last weeks (but obviously not on this occasion, we do apologise, however a simple word to staff would of rectified the issue instantly).

Líbí se We had a lovely weekend here. The site is nice and clean and we had plenty of space to pitch our tent. They have a little on-site shop which pretty much has most things you'll need. On weekends they do food such as pizzas (delicious), burgers etc and the bar is open, which is very cheap. There's a couple of covered areas to sit under.
There's a load of really cute pygmy goats and an aviary too.
It is very close to a train line and the trains are fairly frequent. It didn't bother us at all but if you're a light sleeper then I'd recommend taking ear plugs.
Fantastic views of the night sky as it's a very dark site at night, so being a telescope or binoculars if you have some.

Líbí se Nice large pitches, bar and restaurant on site – we had the breakfast which was great. Friendly and helpful staff.

Nelíbí se Could do with more toilets for a site this large. Several times I had to wait to use a toilet.

Líbí se The bar was cool. Nice little shop. And an easy walk into town.

Great for kids. Goats on site are a nice touch. There's public seating areas which are nice and often missing from campsites.

We had a breakfast roll and coffee both days which were good quality and well priced.

The bar was also good value.

Nelíbí se Poor facilities. There was no hand wash in the men's bathroom all weekend until staff were notified. There is a second men's bathroom which is little more than a shack. The door had fallen off and was simply laid down on the ground.

The shop was being staffed by children, sometimes unsupervised. Giving it doubles up as a bar that seemed highly inappropriate.

The pitches are not clearly defined and the campsite was very busy with no sense of privacy or space.

Od správce: We will always attend any issues when notified, sorry we didn't notice the hand wash during regular cleans.

As for the toilets in question - they are the lower block which are more of a portaloo style (although flushing). We are looking to upgrade these before next season. However the main toilets are as regularly reviewed clean and tidy!

We always allow plenty of space on site and run at less than 1/3 capacity allowing standard pitches to choose their own pitch. If in anyway someone pitches antisocially then we would address if made aware. However as there is plenty of space for kids to play in the camping field we see no reason for this issue to occur - sorry it offended your ocd!

As for children in the shop, they are never unattended and adults are always close by, generally getting on with work to make sure your camping experience is as best it can be. I assure they have and never will serve any alcohol. If you went to a pub and the barman was changing a barrel would you assume the bar is unmanned? or that they were available when needed if a customer made that aware?

A bit of a harsh and blinkered review. Please read the numerous 9/10 star reviews for exactly the same weekend. This is obviously a camper offended when asked to turn the music off for the good of others - happens a lot!

Líbí se We loved our pitch next to bouncy castles,
We paid for 2 pitches but only used the one due to the weather and putting our tents together via gazebo. Staff were friendly, and the shop/bar and kitchen were great. Highly recommend. And yes there is a train track next to it, but didnt take away from our enjoyment.
