Liked: What a beautiful and peaceful site. No overcrowding (even on bank holiday) and clean, well stocked facilities. The fishing pond was the icing on the cake. The owners are cheerful and helpful and always on hand. We will definitely be returning.
Disliked: Don’t miss the turning…. It’s behind the petrol station but not signposted.

Liked: Greeted by the owner who was friendly and showed the amenities on site. Pitch was a good size and there is a local garage for bits and pieces.
Disliked: Road slightly noisy but that’s due to the wind direction and how quiet the pitch field was.

Liked: The owner was friendly, level pitch, clean toilets and showers with hot water, well stocked garage shop next door
Disliked: The owner was friendly although he never gave me or my mate who also booked a pitch our change even if it was only 75p and 50p, the site gets a lot of road noise late into the night which was a bit annoying when your tired and trying to sleep, we didn't get a choice of pitches either so we could choose where we wanted to be, we were just shown to an area cut amongst the long grass, we had a pitch right next to us with two indian families with young children who were noisy played indian music for hours which was driving us nuts,so to drown out the din we put on our own, one of their children screamed his lungs out all night long into the early hours, my friend packed up and left a day early as he'd had a gut full of them, sorry to say we wouldn't stay at this site again as we went to get away from all noise and worries after my recent bad diagnosis, unfortunately only to leave more tired then when we arrived.

From the manager: Hi Kevin Thank you very much for taking the time out to write an informative review. We pride ourselves on our toilet/showers as we realise this is an important factor for our guests. It was a very busy and we apologise about forgetting to give you your change. We understand these are very difficult times and what a financial loss this amount can be. If you can let us have your bank details we will gladly transfer you the £0.75 and £0.50. In response to the Indian families next to you, Carl does say if you have a problem with anything including noisy campers please give him a call or knock on our door, that is why we are on duty 24/7. And if we do not know about the problem we cannot resolve it Carl, Steph, Elaine & Graham
Would highly recommend to anyone who wants clean. Friendly and peace
