Powered grass RV campsite
Liked Lovely peaceful site and run by two very lovely people who cannot do enough for you, was a pleasure seeing the dogs Doris and Agnes who paid a visit every day, Facilities were spot on for a site this size and trust me when I say some of the so called larger sites do not accommodate you like Bob and Christine do, WiFi was spot on on our pitch, would I stay here again? Yes most definatley and will be back at some point next year.

We wouldn't return, although the hosts seemed nice people.
Powered grass RV campsite
Liked The setting.
The cows.
Hosts were polite.
Disliked Toilets were dirty and needed a good clean.
Pot wash taps were too small for the sink, you couldn't get your plates under to rinse them.off.
The water was scalding hot, no warning signs.
Path to the toilets was slippery.
Dog mess left on grass.
Refuse bins were much too far away from the pitches.
Probably ok for a one night stop off as part of a longer journey.

From the manager: Thank you for an interesting review.
I do wish guests would point out any problems whilst they are here,
Toilets were dirty? Do you mean the toilet bowls? they are cleaned daily but we do not follow every guest. There are toilet brushes.
Did you mean the floors? Again cleaned daily, but grass and mud gets trodden in during the day. Push taps? We are not on mains water, push taps reduce wastage.
The water is hot if you run it long enough but we do not think it is scalding hot.
Slippery parh? please wear appropriate foot wear.
Dog mess? We are dog friendly and clean up regularly, if we have missed some, please tell us.
The Refuse bins are at the entrance/exit to the property, easy enough to use as you are leaving.
