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 !

Liked: We stayed on the hard standing pitches which were very spacious and with lots of grass either side. The toilet shower block was one of the cleanest we’ve come across camping! Everything we needed for our stay with friends. We booked for the pub Friday evening. The staff and locals were very friendly and we had a lovely evening. Any questions are answered quickly and no problem with texting the onsite mobile number. Would visit again
Disliked: It wasn’t so much a dislike but the the new shower block was very modern but only one men’s shower and my disabled son showered in the older, larger cubicle which wasn’t as clean as I think pub users must use it a lot

Liked: Family of 4 ages 40’s with 10 year old children met friends and also took parents. Upon arriving at site, we initially judged on the clientele within the car park… how wrong we were! Great site, great facilities, great pitch, great park, great pub, great walks. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay and will defo return for other weekends. A great local (ish) stay that we’d defo return too. Very relaxed place and lovely people

Liked: We were immediately made welcome and shown to a wonderful sized pitch with water as well as EHU on the pitch. The facilities were spotless and we had a delicious meal in the pub. We went on some wonderful walks directly from the site and visited the steam railway. Would definitely recommend for any age.
