Liked: Really nice area, friendly staff, so close to the beach and a nice short walk away from a pub! Amazing stay, facilities were clean and really accessible as well.
Disliked: No onsite WiFi and very poor phone signal (not a massive issue though!)

Liked: Litton is a lovely peaceful area, with a lovely lake to enjoy it was a pity the weather wasn't on our side this time.
Disliked: a couple of pitches with electric available would be a bonus, as weather meant our torches/phones were used more for light etc

Liked: This site is perfect for switching off! No electricity, no phone signal no worries! We were a bit daft and followed the sat nav in whilst towing a small caravan and it was a bit scary! We made it safe and sound in the end and figured out a much safer less scary way home thanks to the staff at the site. We met the site owner, manager and other staff over the three nights we were there and every single one of them were friendly and nice. They genuinely did everything they could to help us out including allowing us to pitch up right next to the toilet block which really helps if you happen to be a lady of a certain age (if you know, you know!). The toilets were basic portable shower/toilet units but they were well stocked and kept clean and tidy. As others have mentioned there are only two showers and three toilets for the whole site but two staff members told us that they were getting more which will hugely improve the site. The pitches were level and considering the huge amount of rain we had pretty well drained. The lake was wonderful with plenty of benches and two resident friendly geese who pottered around. I think that some people mistook the goose poo for dog poo, unfortunately geese are notoriously hard to toilet train but luckily their poo doesn't smell much! We spent hours (in the rain) paddle boarding and in the dingy on the lake which was lovely. The real bonus was the fire pit in the evenings and the lack of light pollution! We did take our very basic telescope for a bit of star gazing. We left the site to go and get fish and chips by the sea which was about 15 minutes down the road and other than that we stayed on site and enjoyed it!
Disliked: They really need to get more toilets and showers, however this is due to be improved next year!
