Electric hardstanding touring pitch (large)
Liked: The two ladies and dogs in reception. The look and cleanliness of the site. Jetta beautiful. The nearby walk.
Disliked: The heavy constant downpours ( site not responsible for) The road noise from the road behind my pitch was constantly interrupting my rest throughout the night so between that and the weather we left early. Tv signal very poor could do with a booster.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch (large)
Liked: Brand new toilet block with excellent hot showers and modern decor. Friendly staff at reception and very helpful with maps, routes etc.
Disliked: Wi fi a little hit and miss depending where you stood on the site. Could do with booster points to give more consistent coverage. Some road noise but not a big problem.
