Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Location, very friendly staff and close to lots of amenities near by. Clean toilet block. And very reasonably priced. Excellent views and great dog walking part and good play park. And an excellent sun trap.. Could not fault anything and will definitely be back.. Ignore the continental policy on website as its a mistake as all are welcome.
