Good basic facilities, but rules should be enforced
Unpowered grass site
Liked Good basic facilities - clean / hot water
Great view
Good location
Friendly staff
Disliked Many dogs not on leads
Noisey until late - especially people shouting for their dogs that aren't on leads - well past 10.30pm
Site rules say all dogs on leads but this was not enforced, even the owners dogs weren't on leads
From the manager: Good Morning
Thank you for your review
we are glad you enjoyed your stay , however i am sorry you felt the dogs on leads wasn't enforced - the wild camping site isn't manned 24hrs a day to give people the "wild camping experience" my phone number is on the site if there are any issues i am only a phone call away and can be there asap
There must be some confusion as i can confirm that my dogs have not been on site at all
hope you will visit us again
