Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked: Large level pitches, beautiful location with fantastic walks along the canal and a canal side pub within minutes. Facilities were good and staff were friendly. Pitches were well maintained and lots of space around. It didn't feel like you were on top of other people.
Disliked: If looking for a quiet site this one may not be for you as the sound of the road and trains continue into the early hours. We didn't mnd it though.

Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked: Not noisy, occasional train in the background but not too disturbing. Quiet around the canal. Toilets & showers good, clean & easy to use. A very short walk to Canal pub (3mins) which serves absolutely delicious top class food. If the opportunity arose would certainly stay here again
Disliked: Need to phone on arrival as gate is locked but you need to know it’s the campsite as gate says Marina, so slightly confusing. Then you need to phone at the gate for someone to open it so make sure you have the number. Once you’re in, everything is fine and dandy as the gentleman in charge was extremely helpful & gave us a set of keys to open gates to pub.
