Expensive. Food and drink was expensive if you wanted to eat on site. The shop was very overpriced too. Over £2 for a loaf of white sliced bread. £13 for a pizza. £11 for a small portion of fish and chips. The fish was mostly batter.
Not that clean. They should employ more cleaners for the shower and toilet blocks. Floors dirty. No sinks in the shower block, you have to brush your teeth in the toilets.
Swimming pool was ok but I was told when coming out and trying to rebook for the next day that I had to come back at 4pm. I had booked the 2 previous days at around 11am without any problems so no idea why I was unable to book again. Should have asked. When my husband went in to book at around 5 o’clock he was told they only had a late slot for the next day. No good for my youngest.
The grass pitch we were given was full of stones. We ended up binning most of our pegs as they were so bent where we had tried to get them in the ground. It also had mess from the people before us that hadn’t been cleared. There seemed to be an upended ashtray with cigarette butts still there. Also some old plastic bags and a lump of dog muck. Lovely.
I had emailed the site a week or so before we came to ask if we could have a pitch close to the toilet and shower block as my son had broken his leg and was on crutches. No apparently that was too much trouble to keep something close for us, we just had to tell the man who showed us to our pitch when we arrived. We did ask the guy who showed us to our pitch but he said you have to take what there is. We were no where near the toilets.
There was a lot of noise, it went on until around midnight in the good weather. Adults screaming and shouting at each other. No security that I saw. There was a bloke in a van who spent time driving around the site. Possibly could have done with him starting a bit later and telling people to shut up by 11pm.
The arcade wasn’t great. We put a few pound coins in the machines and they didn’t work. The basketball game must be raking it in. Pool table works but you have to give the money slot a good shake if you want the balls to come out. No one around to tell. One overworked guy on the bar.
We came home early in the end. I felt like an inconvenience.
