Powered grass site (large, no pets)
Liked: Yes we liked the site, the pitches were huge, plenty of space to run about on pitch and off pitch. Good park for our children and ideally located to walk in to seem
For a drink and Sunday carvery.) The porta-showers were better than the main shower block. Outdoor pool was freezing but to be expected as it wasn’t a particularly warm day, but good fun and would be great in warmer weather, easy to book and provided with own bench / table. Site is old fashioned / dated but overall we enjoyed it and would go back. Thank you
Disliked: The toilets were in a poor state on the morning one of the days, appreciate the site was busy but would have appreciated an earlier clean (no toilet roll, ladies dirty products strewn about the place and unflushed toilets

Liked: Staff were very friendly.
Disliked: Camping toilets were disgusting so walked to the others which were just as bad.
Food very basic.
Group of adults acting like drunk teenagers until 2am on our last night spoilt it. Told to contact security and there was no answer.
