Liked: Site was very clean and tidy, lovely new toilet and showers, outside pizza n burgers, outside bar and alcoholic slushy bar. Very friendly staff, excellent food served in the onsite pub. Convenient for the potteries and lovely walks from the site. Surrounded by scenic views. Lovely playground and plenty of play area for children. Will definitely visit again
Disliked: The grey wast disposal point. We found it difficult to lift our waste container over the high sink. Needs a lower sink or a ramp and landing

Liked: Great pitch, pub next door. Plenty of walks, fantastic new facilities. We had a very quiet Thursday, might be nice to return on a busy Friday when the music is on. We did a lovely 3 mile circuit and ended up in the pub, ideal !
