What customers say
A peaceful, tidy site with helpful staff and an on-site shop. Praised for its clean facilities, roomy pitches, and fishing lake. Some sloped pitches may need blocks. Building work is happening, but it’s a great spot to explore.

Needs attention
Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked Quiet site.
Disliked WOW! and not in a good way. We booked a week but left on the Monday. We got there on Thurs and the bin in the kitchen wash up area & toilets were full and wasn't emptied. Soiled nappies!! The showers / toilets wasn't cleaned at all in the time we stayed. They is no were to put your clothes when showering. The owner needs to try the showers just to see how difficult it is. The picture on the website isn't what you get as your pitch! It needs someone to spend some time on tiding it .

From the manager: Thankyou Barry for leaving a review, as we saw you every day and you never mentioned anything, you praised us, so exactly the opposite this review is a bit of a surprise
The bins are emptied every day and the toilet /shower facilities are cleaned at least three times a day, as highlighted by other reviews.
We are looking at the shower facilities
Nice site with modern facilities that are always kept clean.
Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked The facilities was very modern and also clean. The staff was lovely, We stayed for two nights and it was genuinely amazing. It was the first time taking my 7yo fishing and we had the best time. Even though I have put dislikes the likes massively out weighed them. I will definitely be booking again
Disliked Limited facilities (showers), Hard to get caravan level on pitch.

Anonymous Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked Peaceful site , clean toilets and showers and a lovely pond to walk round with the dog
Disliked The gravel floor down to the toilet block but was told it’s going to have tarmac put down so will be a lot better, there also was a lot of building work going to be done so our view wasn’t the best also the grass hadn’t been cut so was quite long , I’m sure when the improvements have been done it will be lovely

From the manager: Sorry you wont be visiting again but I hope you do when the improvements are finished

Liked Decent sized pitches and helpful staff. Facilities were clean.
Disliked Unfortunately we were at the top of the site right next to a road which was quite noisy at times but not the campsites fault.
