Unpowered grass campervan site
Liked: There is nothing to like here just a terrible location
Disliked: The site is right by the A30 so super noisy and there is no running drinking water only an inadequate box of bottled water provided by the owners! There is only one composting toilet and one shower, one outside wash basin and NO washing up facilities. Expensive for something so useless and felt like we had been completely ripped off. Suffice to say DO NOT STAY HERE it's awful.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your feedback , I am so sorry that you felt compelled to leave such a poor review. It does say on the description that it is a basic site and in the features it says it has a compost toilet and a shower, it is a small site but though small it is kept clean and tidy. Regards to drinking water, I have a cool box with large bottles of free water ,chilled during the heatwave and constantly topped up. I also fill containers for those who ask, from our house, along with ice packs. There was a list of contact numbers in the shower block ,so I can be contacted at anytime if there is a problem. Regards to the A30, it was Bank Holiday weekend, so it was busier than usual . Once again I am so sorry to hear you had such a bad experience. I am normally up at the site to see how everyone is but that particular night I went to a Charity Event, calling by as I left but you had not arrived and it was late when I got back, so didn't like to disturb , so I missed you. .
