From the manager: Dear Guest
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
We're pleased to hear that you were able to make a last-minute booking and that we could accommodate you next to your friends, helping you enjoy your stay together.
We apologise for any confusion caused by the gate code being different from the one you received in your email. On this occasion, we had to change the code due to unauthorised individuals attempting to access the site. This was a necessary security measure to help protect our guests and ensure the site remains safe and secure.
We kindly remind all paying guests not to share the gate code with anyone else, as this helps us prevent unauthorised access and maintain a secure environment for everyone staying with us.
Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to welcome you back again soon.

From the manager: Dear Guest
Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback.
We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the spacious pitches, our friendly and helpful reception team, the plentiful hot water, our security patrols, and the layout and size of the campsite. It's wonderful to know these aspects helped make your stay an enjoyable one.
We also really appreciate your constructive comments regarding the toilet and shower facilities, pot washing area, Wi-Fi, and additional rubbish bins. Thank you for highlighting these areas. We will take your feedback on board and review our cleaning schedules, including the deep cleaning of the toilet blocks, to ensure they meet the standards our guests expect. We'll also look at the signage for the larger waste bins and consider whether additional general rubbish bins would improve convenience around the site.
We appreciate your understanding regarding the road noise, as this is unfortunately outside of our control, and we'll continue to explore ways to improve the guest experience wherever we can.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable stay in the future.

We had a good break
Powered grass campsite
Liked The camp site was tidy and the pitches were big. It was quiet at night times. The toilets and showers were ok for a quick shower. They were clean but a little run down, however it did not ruin our visit as we were hardly in there.
Disliked Smell of the septic tank ever so often. That does need looking into.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
We're so pleased to hear you enjoyed our spacious pitches, the tidy campsite, and the peaceful atmosphere at night. It's also great to know that you found the toilet and shower facilities clean and that they didn't detract from your stay.
Thank you as well for your comments regarding the septic tank. During periods of very hot weather, it's possible for septic systems to produce stronger odours than usual. That said, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will certainly look into whether there are any improvements we can make to help reduce the smell and enhance our guests' experience.
We hope to welcome you back again soon.

This is the most appalling experience we have ever had to endure
Powered grass campsite
Liked Not one thing did we like about this disgusting site
Disliked We only stayed one night my wife couldn’t use the disabled toilets due to so called residents having keys none of which were disabled in fact there was a couple having sex in disabled toilet we had to call a member of staff from the water sports team to allow my wife into the toilet in fact we called him twice and he had to try and find a key that we could use I think we should get a total refund for this appalling disgusting experience that we had to endure for the night we had to stay we couldn’t get away quickly enough on the Tuesday morning and I will be taking it further
