What customers say
Great staff & clean facilities, love the woodland setting and play area. Some note sloping pitches, mud, and busy-period facility strain. Needs general upkeep, but good value and many would come back.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Used to love this place however not so much now unfortunately.
Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Site is well presented and clean with lovely surroundings. Staff/wardens very friendly and helpful.
Disliked Pitches are very very close together with not really any room to even sit outside of tent and relax. Evenings seem loud however I think it’s because tents are almost touching each other.
Not the sites fault however people driving around need to slow down as lots of children out & about. Didn’t have the worst time but I won’t be returning.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us we appreciate the feedback.
Sorry you did not feel you could relax whilst with us. We are working on where we pitch the tents and have a few plans to create more space between units unless family and friends want to pitch nearer each other.
Sorry to hear you wont be coming back but wish you well in your new ventures.
Apart from the toilets there was nothing we liked about this site.
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Toilets were clean.
Disliked Booked a fully serviced pitch which cost £35 per night. Very disappointed to find a faulty tap which fell apart and soaked me through to the skin. No side grass on the pitch just dirt so everything ended up filthy, only one set of facilities for the whole site which was totally inadequate for the number of people there. Area outside the facilities resembled a building site with rubble underfoot, no decent paths of any kind. Definitely wouldn’t go back for free.

Sorry you were disappointed with your stay.
The tap which fed 2 pitches had been completely unscrewed from the pipe as confirmed by maintenance who managed to put the tap back on for you. We did try to help by drying your clothes for you. The pitch as a result was very wet.
Sorry you feel you wont return in the future, all the best with your new ventures.
Love this site! We have visited many times and will no doubt…
Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Love this site! We have visited many times and will no doubt be back again.
Nice little park and woods to explore for the kids, feels safe.
Disliked Only small complaint is that the old toilet block is now closed and the facilities are a bit of a walk when pitched on the bottom field! Would be great if these reopened.

Could be a lovely site. It’s a shame.
Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Friendly staff
Nice little campsite
Disliked Electric Tent Pitches are incredibly small with no markers as to where to be. We had to move our tent after we pitched it.
Not very flat either so you find everything rolling around including yourselves in the night.
Website states 6m between pitches which is untrue, guide ropes are practically touching.
Could do with more showers and toilets for the amount of people they have on the site.
Site roads are horrendous, really need re gravelling.
They have a bog hole there which you can literally smell the entire time, it’s disgusting. I felt sorry for the people pitched right next to it.
I feel sorry for the people running it
Recommend to friends Visit again
A pretty site but not great for pitch sizes.
Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site
Liked Water pressure and water temp in showers
Views
Disliked Drunken families keeping people awake till the early hours.. by all means have fun but be considerate of neighbours.
Tent Pitch sizes very small and not marked out ... daughter had to move tent as markings were not done clearly.
I would avoid at peak times as dangerously over crowded.
Cars parked all over the place too, again this was due to pitch sizes.
Only 5 showers for women over the whole site. Amenities at top of hill, not much fun for those parked at the bottom.
