Lower Lacon Caravan Park

Liked Large pitch, lots of bins and taps.

Disliked Rules for one and not another!
Was sited by a warden onto no4 but he didn't instruct no3 and no2 on their incorrect pitching, basically they put both their tents the wrong way using our pitch for guide ropes , their two families were basically including themselves onto our pitch using no 2 to park their cars , we had no privacy as the warden parked us in camper as per rules but no one asked them to pitch correctly . Everyone camping on the 2nd row behind us used our pitch to walk thru , we asked numerous times for them to stop cutting through as we had dog and all our family came for a picnic its was not a pleasant experience, our visiting daughter had her dog who was attacked by another person's dog off a lead, why bother having rules for us and then everyone else just did what they wanted.

Liked Amazing camp site with plenty for the kids to do. The swimming, the club house, cafe, shop and mini golf. Pitches are reasonable in size.

Disliked All the pitches being crammed In together side by side. Its okay if you're camping with family on separate pitches and can all be together, but when you have families either side of you who constantly argue and the kids are fighting and crying all day, it becomes the pontins of camping.

Liked Location
Food OK on site

Disliked Warden telling us where and how to set up, on ONE pitch when we paid for 2 pitches with electric, the other warden even said he didn't understand why he had told us to set up as we did, only later on in the day he admitted it was wrong and had been a misunderstanding.
The ground is so rocky we even bent rock pegs, the email received from the campsite actually say not suitable for tents,yet that's where we were put. The toilets at night were disgusting, fair play to the cleaners they were fine in the morning.
The site was full of screaming children racing around on bikes,scooters until late evening, I don't normally say anything but felt this campsite warranted it, they try to run it as a 5 star site, but it falls well short.

Liked Fantastic family feel campsite.
Swimming pool
Food places
Plenty of toilet and showers
Playground and animals

Disliked Would be nice if the family bar opened in the day, the adult only bar does, it was extremely hot weather when we went so going inside would have been a nice option.
We did pay for the WiFi which wasn't great in the top field.

Liked We stayed in the orange section at the end - this seems to br the designated pitchup area - and the pitches were a great size. We had a midsize tent (berghaus air 600) with additional awning and two cars plus a trailer all on the pitch and there was still plenty of room for sitting, eating and playing.

The pool was clean and slots were easy to book. Showers were nice and hot but not too hot for the kids (push buttons with no temp control).

Disliked When we arrived, it wasn't overly busy in our end, the orange section was maybe 20% occupied, and the toilets and showers (mobile) were clean but as soon as the field starred filling up they quickly began to get messy and soap/loo roll ran out well before the next cleaning slot. I think they probably need to be monitored a little more.

Liked The facilities for children and the staff service were good.

Disliked The area was overgrown with weeds and littered with trash. It was estimated that there were only two toilets and one temporary toilet available for 300 campsites.

Liked Good facilities which were clean.
Well organised pitches.

Disliked Extremely loud and noisy during the day and especially during the night. The noise continued well into the early hours of the morning.
When I raised this with staff, they were uninterested.
Noise was so bad that we left after the first night.
It was like trying to sleep in the middle of a noisy city centre pub.

Liked We had a brilliant time here. We were slightly worried as the website seems al rules rules and more rules but when we were there is was very relaxed and everyone was respectful of other campers. Rangers were very chilled and had a good laugh and extremely helpful , nothing was too much to ask, helping us out with a hammer as our mallet wasn’t ideal.

Disliked The ground it very hard and we even struggled with some of our rock pegs so make sure your prepared.
