Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)
Liked We had a lovely stay at the caravan site and would definitely come back. The site was very well maintained—everything was clean, tidy, and clearly well looked after. My daughter especially loved the play area, which kept her happily entertained while we relaxed. It had a really friendly atmosphere, and we felt welcome from the moment we arrived. A great place for a peaceful break with the family!

Great family campsite with fun activities and friendly staff
Electric grass pitch (large)
Liked We had a fantastic weekend! The Green pitches were perfect for our first family camping trip — spacious and close to the facilities, which were clean and easy to access. We really enjoyed the family-friendly disco on Friday night, and the selection of ciders was great — especially the piña colada flavor! The pool was a hit with the kids, and although it didn’t feel heated, it was ideal for cooling off on a hot day. The onsite shop had a good range of food and drinks, and all the staff were super friendly and approachable. The campsite itself was quiet and peaceful, and the other campers were lovely.
Disliked Not much to complain about at all! The only minor thing was that the pool didn’t feel heated as advertised — but since the weather was warm, it actually worked out well for cooling down.

Ideal for the kids to run about, great sized pitches, friendly staff
Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)
Liked Yes we liked the site, the pitches were huge, plenty of space to run about on pitch and off pitch. Good park for our children and ideally located to walk in to seem
For a drink and Sunday carvery.) The porta-showers were better than the main shower block. Outdoor pool was freezing but to be expected as it wasn’t a particularly warm day, but good fun and would be great in warmer weather, easy to book and provided with own bench / table. Site is old fashioned / dated but overall we enjoyed it and would go back. Thank you
Disliked The toilets were in a poor state on the morning one of the days, appreciate the site was busy but would have appreciated an earlier clean (no toilet roll, ladies dirty products strewn about the place and unflushed toilets

Staff were very friendly.…
Electric grass pitch (large, no pets)
Liked Staff were very friendly.
Disliked Camping toilets were disgusting so walked to the others which were just as bad.
Food very basic.
Group of adults acting like drunk teenagers until 2am on our last night spoilt it. Told to contact security and there was no answer.
