Liked A small and quiet site. Good price.

Ok for 1 night, wouldn’t stay for longer.
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked The site was quiet and peaceful and the spaces were large.
Disliked The 2 showers would only go really cold and really hot and there wasn’t much privacy. Arrival was a bit strange because I wasn’t given a pitch number, so just had to guess.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked The setting for the campsite was beautiful, we loved exploring the grounds including the Japanese garden with fish to watch and the woodlands. Plenty of space, and the pitches were a great size and flat. Washing up space was clean and tidy. A great site that we would definitely return to if in the area. Everyone seemed to find a pitch easily, and there were no issues with the check in/pitch up process.
Disliked Shower shacks were a lovely idea but not for us! Couldn't quite get the temperature right. We just used the showers in the main toilet block instead.
