What customers say
Big, roomy site, heaps of family fun. Pitches are good-sized & well-spaced. Staff are dead friendly. Loads of activities, but toilets/showers could be cleaner. Limited electric, sometimes tricky to find a spot.

Unpowered grass site (no pets)
Liked I emailed ahead of time to ask for a pitch near to the amenity block to accommodate a disability and they were very helpful.
We pitched in A block and it was lovely and flat, not too far from the main areas of the site. I was worried about all the rain we’ve had recently but the field was absolutely fine.
Despite all the reviews about the toilets being dirty we didn’t have this issue. The toilet block looked recently refurbished and the pot wash had hot water which was nice not to have to pay for.
Welcome was fantastic. Pitches were identified with a little coloured tuft sticking out the ground and a plate with the pitch number. I was definitely overthinking it, but it wasn’t clear if the marker was the middle of the pitch or a certain corner. I was worried I was encroaching onto another pitch but I’m not sure it was actually an issue because of how much space there was.
Disliked The activity wristband times don’t match up with arrival and departure times. So by the time you are allowed the arrive the session has already started and similarly it continues beyond the time you have to have left by. Not a problem if you are staying multiple nights but you lose out a little for a one night stay.

Unpowered grass site (no pets, wild)
Liked The site is an excellent option for families. There is plenty to do around the site and it is decently priced too! There are also several toilet blocks around the site so you don’t have to travel too far, however it would be better if all of these have electric as the one near us didn’t. The site is well managed and is kept clean. Overall this is a very good site to stay at and we will definitely be returning here again in the near future!
Disliked Some toilet blocks didn’t have electric or lighting at night. Would be better if the WiFi was extended around the site as the signal here is terrible!

No staff visibility and interaction and cleanliness of site showers.
Power optional grass site (no pets)
Liked Tent plots large. Activities for the children if you can get on them and lots fields for the kids to explore on their bikes. Local town for food.
Disliked The electric kept tripping so our fridge kept going off for periods. We did then have a full power cut due to a local tree coming down on a line, but we was already experiencing power cuts on site prior. No staff present around site to talk to about this, we was lucky as we had gas aswell as electric but some had no gas so was unable to make food or drinks, so help was offered from site staff. A lot had to go off site and spend money so they could eat. This is an added cost whet you have already taken food and budgeted for the stay. I understand you can’t help a power cut external to the site but the problems were happening prior to that.
The activities seem good for the price, but only good if you can get on anything, eyes huge and kids hardly going on anything. They then have a lunch break where all staff close activities. You have to go with your child if you also want to ensure they don’t get pushed back to the back of the Que due to other adults pushing in front and staff allowing this. So if you have older children and want to relax that’s out! Showers are dirty not cleaned, never any toilet roll (which I expect some sites say take own) but I’ve never been to showers that were so dirty.

campsite is big, staff are nice but power supply lose all the credit.
Power optional grass site (large, no pets)
Liked the campsite is big with many different facilities and the location is good and easy to get supply from local stores.
Disliked the electric hook up pitch is big but the power supply is very poor and unstable. We could not use our electrical appliances for cooking or hair dry nor anything. we paid for the electricity but didn't get what we suppose to have. very disappointed. complaint email been sent to the site manager but get no response. won't recommend to friends if they are going to use electric pitch.
