Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: We booked last minute for the bank holiday weekend and was our first time tent camping as a family. It was so good we extended our stay. Staff were amazing! Really friendly, kind and couldn’t do enough for us. We didn’t want to leave. Very family friendly, clean and the showers were great and hot! Good evening entertainment and lovely food. The kids made some lovely friends. Lots of places to visit and things to do within a 30min drive. Definitely will be returning.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Helpful staff Nice play area for the kids
Disliked: Had to leave early as a few of our party contracted norovirus during our stay. When I mentioned it to staff they seemed to know it was going around but never mentioned it to us on arrival. Facilities weren't cleaned regularly, I only saw one cleaner during our stay. The pot wash area never had hot water available and again wasn't clean. There are 6 showers on site 2 didn't work and the other 2 (in the men's loos) had extrwanly low pressure. To the point that water actually stopped running
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We are sorry your experience was not the same as others who holidayed on our Park at the same time as yourselves. The facilities are cleaned at 3am every morning and are checked and cleaned regularly during the day, We have not had any other reports of norovirus, and we hope that those affected are now fully recovered. We did have a party who arrived and asked for weak tea for their child who had been sick on the journey, which is what a member of staff mentioned to you. No-one reported broken showers or dirty facilities. Members of staff staying on-site also use those facilities and they have not reported issues either. The pot wash boiler was playing up, and was out of action for a few hours whilst we were waiting for a replacement part. but for those who reported no hot water, we either re-lit the boiler or washed their dishes for them in the Kitchen dishwasher. I know that some unsupervised children made a bit of a mess in the pot wash filling up water pistols and spraying water everywhere, but rather there then in the toilets! We have also spoken with EH regarding our procedures and your concerns.
Would defo recommend. Be back next year if can't get there before!

Liked: Had a great week, was sad to leave! Paula, Mandy & Mel were great hosts. All of the team were really friendly & amazing with the children. Nothing was too much to ask. All went above for the children especially. We spent every evening in the club house, good atmosphere and had good entertainment on. We had some lovely meals & breakfasts! Shout out to Mel she was great with our girls and made them feel really good in themselves & did so much for them! Thank you
Disliked: Nothing.
