Disliked: Traffic from the site drove past our pitch to get in and out it was like being sat on a busy motorway, started from 7am. There were a lot of permanent campus or residence. So yes, a lot of traffic back-and-forth.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: Lovely site. The team were very welcoming and accommodating on arrival. Helped to find a suitable pitch not too far from the toilet block for hubby who has had recent mobility issues. Toilets were spotless. Briliant Staff interacted sereval times with us during there work. All friendly and helpful.
Disliked: Shame there is no footpath along the road side to the cafe. We managed to walk it but it did not feel very safe on the road.
