Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: The facilities are basic, but we knew that when we booked and the price is good. Everything is clean and well looked after. It's a nice site in a pleasant location. There was quite a bit of rain while we were there, but the field we were in seemed to have good drainage so we had no problems with mud or water-logging. Location is very handy for Flamingoland!
Disliked: There was only one shower in the main toilet block. I didn't notice whether there was one in the smaller block or not. We were only there for a couple of nights though, so for us it wasn't a problem. The shower was coin-operated, which I hadn't anticipated - I'd assumed it would be included in the cost of the visit.

Liked: Very clean, nice fields with good views. Lovely area.
Disliked: Personal wash facilities not very good. Toilets was portacabins with tiny sinks no were to get washed in private. Only 2 showers for the whole camp. Only 2 sinks to wash pots there was a very long queue every morning.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for the kind remarks, am disappointed that you didn’t use the private toilet and shower facilities. The sinks are standard hand washing size with both hot and cold water also a disenfectant dispenser, (not really suitable for a strip wash). Unfortunately the date of your stay was a bank holiday (my busiest time) and if there was a queue at the outdoor sinks then I can only apologise and ask that you be patient at the busiest time.
