Worst pitch EVER!!
FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite (super)
Liked The staff were very friendly, showers nice and hot, food in bar was good. Shop on site.
Disliked We were put on probably the WORST pitch ever for £35. It was like we'd been put in the naughty corner of a car park that smelt of drains in the darkness. No outside grass to put chairs on or any kind of pitch separation just 4 vehicles on gravel next to the toilets!!! There were plenty of empty pitches on site that had nice grass next to them that were up in the sunshine. Should have asked to move but we were only staying one night, but most disappointed I've ever been as regards value for money!!

We loved our visit. The site…
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked We loved our visit. The site is well staffed, with a well stocked shop that has everything you would possibly need and more. The restaurant is warm and welcoming with great food. We took the kids swimming to the nice clean heated indoor pool that again had lovely staff. The night time entertainment was enjoyable and the amusements were a big hit with the kids. The toilet and shower blocks were well cleaned and had everything needed. We enjoyed the beautiful walks also. Overall our first visit and stay here was amazing and we will definitely be re booking.
