Liked: Friendly, well run. Just made us feel very welcome. Had an excellent meal on our last night there, great food and value for money.
Disliked: Didn't like ballast pitches, adequate.
Having different codes for each toilet and shower could be done better, just one code as changed weekly, would suffice. A system, that was easier to see toilet/shower was occupied.

Liked: Nothing I liked !!! Basically a field behind a pub in the middle of nowhere, check in 3pm too late as off last site 10am and had 2 dogs so did not check in and went somewhere better and won’t be going back also £38 for that site was far too much as stayed on better for £25 a night .
Disliked: All of it £38 for a field behind a pub
