Syntes om Quiet

Anbefal til venner Besøg igen

Syntes om Nice little campsite situated near a really nice village. Facilities all ok and staff were friendly. Service taps located behind the pitches for easy access to water.
Toilets and showers were all ok.
An easy drive to the site through the village (no narrow lanes etc).

Even with the snow and -0 temperatures all facilities continued to operate normally causing no issues to people holidaying on site.

We would return 👍🏼

Syntes om The site was good for kids it had a play area plus animals to keep them busy and entertained, also there was a busy train track next to the site which would of been nice for the train spotters 🤣

Syntes ikke om The toilets wasn't the cleanest with no hot water to wash your hands, and showers was terrible in my opinion also there was no were we could wash up for the time of year we was there, so they need to work on catering for hot water on this site has the site is open all year around.

Fra bestyreren: There is hot water in wash up areas and toilets - not sure why there was an issue - no one else has had one and they are working when I checked. Maybe ask a member on site before writing a review?

Toilets are cleaned daily - even with only a few on site! Obviously more regularly when busy.

Showers are electric power showers, with no timers. They are the higher
KW version too. Get regular positive feedback on them.

Wash up is next to the Elsan - again with hot water.

Again maybe ask a member of staff before writing an inaccurate review.

Syntes om Given the time of year and season, we enjoyed how spacious it was, if you love trains, you'll enjoy the trains that pass, we didn't mind them one bit. The kids also enjoyed interacting with the goats for hours and loved playing in the play area.

Syntes ikke om Slight bit of confusion on arrival although sign posted to go to reception for check in, we went to reception no one there and no real sign to contact anyone, luckily found a number on there on site shop to call and got sorted. We was told the owners wasnt there and they was looking after the place for them.
We couldnt do our washing up, there was no hot water at the area provided.
Also no hot water in the toilets to wash your hands, toilet facilities are important to us and its what we look for when booking. They wasnt the best nor the worst, cleanliness wasnt great and the locks on the doors weren't working and getting stuck.
The thing that ruined our stay the most was someone (which we assumed was a member of staff) telling us at 10pm that we was being too loud on new years eve?! We read the rules and knew its meant to be quiet time at certain hours but given the day it was and also everyone else making noise we didnt really know we was doing anything wrong.
We was watching our favourite YouTuber doing his flog off a projector which was connected to a speaker, however it was no louder than people talking? When asked we did disconnect the speaker but put a right downer on the night. Everyone else was still drinking outside there vans laughing/chatting enjoying new years eve where for some reason we found we were singled out? There was no one else really by us. If we was being anti social and causing a nuisance id be the first to apologise and admit. Even though we didnt think we was in the wrong we still obliged and was respectful. This just ruined our stay and for that reason we wouldnt return or recommend.

Fra bestyreren: Check in, says report to reception - reception door clearly states the number to call. Only a few on site during winter so unaffordable to staff as we would in peak times.

This time of year staff would only ask you to respectful of your neighbours if we get a complaint. Unfortunately large amounts of alcohol can alter your reality of the situation! The rules are no amplified music after 9pm - you've clearly stated you were breaking the rules, and yet upset when politely asked not too?

Camping is a community affair and as such you need to be respectful of others.

Syntes om Lovely area, loved tge goats. Unfortunately the bar etc wasnt open, but no drama it was nye and we are self sufficuent. Nice hot showers.

Syntes ikke om £7.50 for logs, but they were a but damp so not the best..

Fra bestyreren: Read other reviews. This is winter in flood conditions. Sorry the grass wasn't vibrant and the showers not hot when the door was left open. FYI they have heating!!!

Syntes om The location is perfect and scenery stunning. The staff are very friendly and the campsite itself is ideal, Unfortunately the kitchen and bar was closed as we went out of season. The site was very quiet. You do have trains passing right alongside and the Crowing Rooster - But for us this just added to the lovely atmosphere.

Syntes ikke om The showers were not great, Not much pressure and some wouldn’t heat up, Nowhere to put dry clothes etc. The facilities however very clean.

Syntes om Great location, loved the animals and short walk to the canal into the village. Very peaceful even though it’s next to the railway and we were hardly disturbed by the trains.

Syntes ikke om Nothing to dislike! Will return at some point
