Absolutely lovely site that I will return to time and again.
Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked The location is absolutely perfect for accessing the forest and Wye Valley. The site is very well laid out with ample space between pitches, and minimal distances to electric hook ups. Facilities are very clean and well looked after by the staff. The site office also has a shop selling essentials, so you won't go hungry! The site is just a short walk from from the village of Christchurch, which has pubs and a good village shop. I have to say that the staff were what really makes this site something to keep coming back to; they were exceptional in coming to my aid when mother nature decided to send a freak gust of wind to rip off my Dometic awning. Saved me a load of heartache and rescued the remainder of my holiday! BIG THANKYOU!!!!
Disliked Nothing to note, although I've never been there 'in peak season'.
