Liked: The most friendly welcome! Staff were just great.. so helpful. Food in the pub is amazing, had evening meal and breakfast. Lovely flat field, so much space in the middle for the kids to play and park in a playing field behind that!
Disliked: Would be great to have a couple more toilets/showers - but not a deal breaker, will just get up earlier next time 😂
