Líbí se See below

Nelíbí se Initially waved over by site owner on arrival. Was told to pitch tent in small gap between two other tents and had to be at right angles to trees. Upon building the tent was then informed we could have placed tent further away from trees (frustrating), therefore would have created much more space for everyone. Massive field but for some reason he insisted everyone put all tents within yards of each other. It clearly states on the website that the tents are to be planned out in a zigzag formation to create space between tents, especially incase of emergencies like fires. I was asked to move my car several times, so the owner could fit even more tents in to small gaps. Large group of lads next to us who were loud and up till 5am. The owner said he had spoken to them 3 times throughout the night, which we didnt hear or see him do so, then gone to bed and put his headphones on so he couldn't hear them. Solving the problem for himself, alone. Site owners dog was roaming the field, unleashed and fouling without him picking up the mess, even though it clearly states all dogs are to be kept on leashes at all times(Picture below). We were asked to pay £60 by the owner for two nights, having already paid £9.50 deposit. We message him asking about the overpayment but was read and ignored(picture below). Whilst sitting outside the tent, we overheard(loud) conversation between an Asian family and the owner in which the owner asked the lady if she was making chicken chow mein or sweet sour chicken for tea. Nothing like a bit of racism thrown in to boot. 3 horses in the smallest part of the field left out in direct sunlight all day at 25 degrees. The amount of space he gave all the tents in total, would have fit in the tiny horse paddock, least the horses would have had some room. Toilet and shower facilities very basic and out dated. Could do with a revamp but clean enough. Female camper with two children was doing more work than the owner, guiding cars on arrival and providing activities for the camps children.

Od správce: 1) Very busy weekend and a popular site
Can’t keep all happy Most were !
2) Campers come from via different web sites
Some pay deposits others don’t If extra paid without telling us at the time - it will be refunded when office is open during the week
We don’t know unless they tell if they have or not

Líbí se Leaving

Nelíbí se Everything …

There once was a campsite run down at Southport
By a bitter old tyrant who only wore jorts.
He barked out his rules with venomous snorts,
But let worse things slide than the state of his shorts.

Three poor horses stood in a pen far too small,
While he bragged about rules that meant nothing at all.
A man with an axe roamed free through the trees,
Chopping down wood as he pleased with ease.

He’d glare at your van, demand your reports,
And ask if you’re hiding illicit imports.
Yet showers were fouled by unspeakable sorts—
While he strutted around in those hideous jorts.

If hypocrisy thrived in villainous forts,
It’d pitch up its tent in his kingdom of jorts.
And if camping means dealing with tyrannical sorts—
I’d rather sleep rough… than bow down to jorts

Líbí se Fantastic owner very friendly and helpful, we had a lovely corner plot a little further from other tents which was great and more suitable for my little boy due to his additional needs and our first time camping. My little boy loved the slide and trampoline well monitored by owner to check on numbers using. Very clean toilets and shower block.

Od správce: Despite advise , client choose to pitch in the “naughty corner” for young ones
And
This being out of the way - it suited her to smuggle in others, who did not pay

No
One else complained


Made your bed love -
Lie in it
Poetic justice

Harassed me with 21 calls right through the night - despite me being such with the flu

Líbí se Small campsite friendly owner

Líbí se Loved Jacksmere. My 10 year old is an animal lover so the ponies ducks and chickens were a big hit. She also loved the trampoline. Plenty of toilets, and washing up facilities.

Líbí se Don't let the bad review's put you off. We stayed a weekend with our young daughter and had a great time. Dave the owner is a down to earth helpful guy and a good laugh. Our daughter got to ride the ponies and loved seeing the chickens and ducks on site. Toilet blocks are dated but always clean. Don't go expecting 5 star camping and you will be fine. We will defiantly be returning.

Nelíbí se Not as described no bouncy castle an no pool only pool was for ducks an chickens

Doporučit přátelům Navštívit znovu

Od správce: Both pool and bouncy castle are always on site
But due to stormy weather - neither were deployed for Health and Safety reasons

Common sense really but I get the negative review !
