Liked: Great little site. Brilliant pub with friendly locals also another pub 3 minutes walk away if you want a meal on the days the site pub doesn't serve meals (Monday and Tuesdays when we were there). The access is a bit tight and not for the faint hearted if you have a large outfit but as the picture will prove it can be accomplished safely with an 8ft wide Twin axle pulled by a BMW X5. I would certainly use again if travelling anywhere near this area in future.

Liked: Small clean site. Easy access to toilets which were kept really clean. We booked a table at the pub and Sue contacted us for our food order in advance. Food was lovely and staff were very friendly. All in all a lovely nights stay.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked: Friendly owners, good pitch drain, 16 amp hookup. Quiet site.
Disliked: Water point was shared with a riding stable adjoining the caravan site with swapping of hoses from a single water point, which also was a piped connection to the Elsan disposal area. The hygiene side of swapping pipe connections after using the Elsan point and also opening and closing the entry gate needs urgent attention. The entry and exit from road to site is precarious as the turn in and out is acute. Exiting when vehicles are parked above and below the opening restricts vision particularly when in a car. |Could do with mirrors opposite the exit for both up and down the road. to go back to close the entry/exit gate requires stopping somewhere up or down the road which is difficult as roadside parking is restricted.

From the manager: Hardly any effort to swap a hose! Not sure what your point is about hygiene? There is a separate hose for the Elsan point and a separate one for drinking water - nothing unhygienic there? The gate doesn’t require any “urgent attention “at all. That was installed as an extra security measure ( double gated). With regards to to the site having a precarious entrance when we send you our welcome letter after making your booking one of the points we make is that the “entrance is a little tight and tricky” therefore if that is something that might be of concern to you do not book! As for opening and closing the gate your comment quite frankly is pathetic!
Nice small stay over
