Fully-serviced grass site (jumbo)
Liked Such a lovely site. Lots of space for each pitch, very reasonable in the shop and club house. Food was lovely I recommend the ribs…. Oh my life they were huge !! We were very lucky with the weather it was so hot. Fishing was good even if the Mr only caught 1 he really enjoyed it. Really clean and are already looking to see when we can go back.
Disliked There was nothing to dislike.

Anonymous Fully-serviced grass site (jumbo)
Liked Lovely sized camping pitches for tents. Really big allowing space for large tent and two cars.
On site restaurant bar was great, food portions were excellent. Bigger than we could eat. Pool tables and tv showing football when we were there.
Lake was easy to access (according to son and husband!)
Dog park although small was enough to run the dogs in quickly.
Toilet and shower facility clean and enough for the time we were there in May.
Disliked Some people may not like the noise of the link road adjacent to the campsite but we were not worried by this.
