Liked We loved the simplicity of the PARK and the warm welcome from Joy, who came round every morning and evening to make sure everyone was happy. We really enjoyed the free use of a fire pit and the wood was very reasonably priced.

Liked Location is great and even though the facilities are basic(2 x toilets/2 x showers) they are clean and everything you need. Fire pits to borrow and logs to purchase at £5(large bag). Val and her Daughter were constantly walking around to see if everything was ok and if anyone needed any assistance.
Disliked The site is currently in the planning phase for an upgrade for their facilities which include improved showers/toilets and the addition of a dish washing facility.
