Border Forest Caravan Park

Positiv: Campervan fitted pitch but we did not stay.

Negativ: Site was tired, dowdy. Toilet/shower were not nice. Toilet block smelt to high heaven of sewage for no apparent reason. Departed and checked into a pub B&B. Advised Aly of why we weren’t staying and also emailed the site to be referred to Owner

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your kind words of encouragement,,especially with the weather we are enduring so far this season Michael

Positiv: The area is beautiful and the man on reception was really helpful and nice. The view was breathtaking, we had dogs and there was so many places to walk them, the kids loved the pigs as well.

Negativ: No fault of the sites but the midges were unbearable. We tried everything but the only thing that worked was staying in the caravan from 6pm till 9am. Couldn't sit out side or you would get eaten alive. The shower block could do with an upgrade, as no hot water on the last night. The only other thing I would say is the place is looking a little "tired" the grass wasn't cut, the shower block was dirty just little things like that. But when you are paying £30 a night you would like it to be a bit cleaner.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Midges are part of the environmental here in Englands wilderness and are bad during wet conditions. As it rained from Wednesday 22/5 to Friday morning more or less constantly, we cannot cut the grass it would make a terrible mess. Toilets and showers are cleaned .regularly!!!

Positiv: Good location with plenty of local walks.

Negativ: Forgot about the midges. Facilities are dated and could do with some serious updating for what you are paying. Luckily we have onboard facilities but would have expected better for £33 per night.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Ladies showers are dated but work ie Hot water and good pressure! Toilets by touring area new in 2016 We have invested a substantial amount Solar panels and batteries doing our bit for our Planet. Michael

Positiv: Great location away from Pubs towns and people so perfect for a quiet break. Scenic location with plenty of wild life and walks. Touring pitches down by the river which is lovely but can be a problem with midges. Pitches hard standing are a bit narrow but are well spaced. Facilities functional and clean but a bit dated. Overhaul a great stay and a very relaxing weekend.

Negativ: Too many dogs
