Primitive cement/asphalt and grass campervan campsite
Liked: Sadly it was a grey old weekend but because it was September and quiet we were told we could park our Campervan anywhere…so we did! Lovely level pitch, clean showers and toilets. We were off early for a 100th birthday celebration but would definitely have stayed on a bit to enjoy the walks and scenery.
Disliked: A few more trees and or hedges would be nice and bigger hooks in the showers …oh and the shower spray very nearly wets your clothes!!
