What customers say
Large, well-kept park with friendly staff and great amenities like clean restrooms, showers, and a popular pool. Spacious, level pitches. Many loved the value, though some noted pitch location, noise, dated areas, and no Wi-Fi. Great location and dog-friendly.

Liked Pitches are spacious and tidy
Disliked Toilet Elsan point were overflowing on arrival and we had to use hole in ground. Same next day when refilling the water tank and then cleaning out cassette for onward trip. We were there in March 2025 and there were no showers available due to fault, we had to go to leisure centre and use those. We were both freezing by time we got back. But no comments or communications either time.

From the manager: Thank you for your honest feedback. We're glad you appreciated the spacious and tidy pitches. We're very sorry to hear about the issues with the Elsan point and shower facilities, and especially the lack of communication during your stay. This isn't the experience we aim to provide, and your comments will be passed on to the team for review and improvement.

Lovely, clean site

Liked The site was very quiet (mid-October). The toilet and shower blocks were very clean. My children enjoy using the play park. We didn't go to the entertainment building so I cannot comment on it.

Liked Fine campsite, facilities were good, warm.
Disliked A lot of guests didn't respect the time and we were often woken up at times throughout the night of people making a lot of noise, dogs barking etc. This happened around 4 times between 11:30-5am.

Nice and clean
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked The staff were really helpful, the site was nice and clean, really nice area unfortunately we timed our stay just as storm Amy arrived so we got rocked to sleep every night, didn't bother myself, my other half on the other hand couldn't wait to get into a bed that wasn't moving constantly through the night, lol. We had a couple of nice long very breezy walks with our 2 dog and on the whole had a nice relaxing weekend. Many thanks.
