Liked The site is a great find. We had a very warm welcome, and everyone is friendly. The site is well maintained and clean. Lots of daily upkeep. Plenty of water points and bins. Fortunate enough to have great weather and found plenty of shade on our pitch. Local cafe served great food, also coffee and cake takeaways . Many thanks for accommodating a last minute change of arrival due to illness, very much appreciated. Great location for walking and cycling from the site.
Disliked There is road noise , but you soon get used to it. Would like to have a more secure lock on the shower doors. The hooks are adequate but never got the hang of securing them correctly!
