Liked: Very well kept site, very good managers. Easy site to access. Showers and toilets very good, under floor heating, clean toilets and plenty of hot water. We spent 7 nights there and hope to return. Good pub 5-10 mins walk away, The Brewers Arms. Very friendly staff and good food. Pleasant walk through the woods to Polstead, took about 40 minutes.

Liked: Everything was great. Each pitch has privacy with shrubs around. All cleaning and washing facilities good. Loved the continuous music playing in the toilet and shower block. Made you feel like you are not alone especially using the toilets in the evening. Location was good for touring around the local villages. Lovely walk through fields and woodland to Polstead.
