Liked: Easy to access the site and barriers to provide security, friendly site, helpful, small shop on site. Showers and toilets if needed. Picnic benches and play area for the kids and a barbecue area for anyone to use.
Disliked: Toilets were dirty because I think kids may have used them alone. Could do with hourly inspections.

Liked: As there are so many bad reviews for this site I'm going to leave a good one. We had a great time here, showers and toilets was cleaned regularly, staff on site was helpfull with us hooking up our electricity as there was no close ones to our tent, we was able to hook up to a touring van outlet at no extra charges, pitch sizes was more than ample as there is no max size. The price of the 2 night stay was excellent, peaceful surroundings not to far drive from a good few beaches we visited on out weekend overall a great spot at a grand price don't be put off by bad reviews.
Disliked: Leaving for home

Liked: Very helpful staff
Disliked: We had issues with our tent so had to book a pod there was no issues with getting this for the first night, we had to move for our second night as someone else had booked the pod already. We moved to the second pod and it started to rain outside and we had a drip inside onto the bed. We moved into the 3rd pod at about 10pm. This is not the trip we expected. Blood and reused sheets in the pods aswell. Not clean at all. Once we left the first pod we noticed the cleaner had used the sheets that we put aside because of previous blood stains from the people before us back onto the bed folded up for the new guests that night.

Liked: It’s very close to penny well farm, just a 10 minute drive. Close to supermarkets. Plenty of water taps and electric stations all around. The picnic tablets were a plus. Plenty of space, nobody is crowed, the camping field was very good. Friendly residents in the park who were happy to help.
Disliked: Plenty of toilets but sadly only one shower and being a family of 5 girls showering did turn into a bit of a long event. Shower could also do with a little bit of upgrading.

Liked: This was our 2nd time camping and it was so easy to get there, easy to get onto our pitch that we got told if the grass was too muddy still after the down poor we was aloud to go anywhere that was safe enough to sleep that night, my children were safe in the park and we didn't have to worry about them at all. Easy access to toilets, washing up areas and had baby changing area, we had some trouble with someone on a quad bike but we called up the manager and within 10 minutes he was off it and not allowed on again as there's a policy for no motorbikes quad bikes or anything that can halm the people staying there. All had 5 mile an hour signs too. Walking access to the fields near by so you don't have to stay on the pitch.
Disliked: No dislikes at all
