Liked Back again! Stayed a night on my own before family joined me but always feel safe. Kev, Mick and the staff make you feel so welcome. Amazing weather this weekend too.

1 bedroom on-site caravan
Liked Lovely sited tourer. Spacious and clean with plenty of space and outdoor seating. Sited close to the facilities on site. My in laws were total caravan novices but Kev and Mick looked after them.
They loved the pub, have a wonderful meal. Hard working staff given the heatwave.
Disliked Nothing to dislike as such but Where it was sited, it’s next to the large beer garden and given the heatwave, people were sat late in the night, a few had too many drinks and were shouting/swearing

Liked Lovely family campsite. Electric hook up and water on the pitch, lovely clean toilets and hot showers. Kitchen area to wash up and recycling bins all on site. Kev and the team were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Evening entertainment on friday night which was good as was the food. Outside beer garden and an outside kitchen for burgers and pizzas however undergoing a refurbishment atm. Definitely be back with the family.

Brilliant site, will definitely visit again
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked The camp site was clean and well kept. We booked a grass pitch with electric hook up and there was water tap on pitch, which was a nice surprise, as then a full service pitch. Beautiful view from our pitch. Outside bar and food area very nice. It rained so we spent Friday evening in the site pub, great night and very welcoming local people.
