Fully-serviced grass site (jumbo)
Liked I would say the site is very clean and the wash/ cleaning areas are more than adequate and camping areas are spacious and well maintained, the fishing lakes are lovely and well stocked, but I think if youve paid for the site, the fishing should be free, like other sites I have stayed on.
Disliked For me this is where the experience goes sour, the " Country club ", the prices are high so you expect exceptional quality. Me personally, if i am paying these prices, I do not expect to get my own cutlery, and have your condiments to come in packets like a transport cafe. I had what was claimed as the " Butchers burger" at £14, it was awful and doubt it had seen a butcher, it was a normal processed burger like a burger chain. Non of us finished any of our meals, and we sat at the table for over an hour and nobody collected the plates, and there were very little people in the bar.
Sorry but one other thing, we asked if we could watch the racing at Epsom, which they did for us, only for what I would say is a regular at the bar, changing the channels many times, to watch other races he had bets on..
I dont like leaving bad reviews, but the site was let down for me, with my " country club" experience.

Liked The shower and toilet facilities were impeccably maintained, as were the laundry and dishwashing amenities. The site itself was well-kept, and the Country Club is highly recommended for a visit. The camping plots offer generous space, accommodating large tents and vehicle parking with ease.
Disliked No freezer availabile on site to freeze ice packs for cooler box.
