Area, woodlands, river setting, wildlife

Toilet block, shop and pub food closed

A very good site, close enough to a lot of wonderful places and very easy to travel to and from. Even booked an extra night stay to ensure we could do as much as possible and no issues at all with our stay! Will definitely be recommending this site to our friends.

Reception. Location. Facilities. Trees.

Two site maps were provided. One showed the entire site and was both accurate and easy to understand. The other one showed a smaller area and was intended for tourer users. The latter map is hopelessly confusing and is unnecessary because the required information is on the larger map. I recommend using the larger map only.

Quiet location, large pitch, pub on site
