What customers say
Lovely, tranquil spot with top-notch facilities. Spacious pitches, friendly owners, and lots of wildlife praised. Unisex loos and shower tokens were a minor niggle for some, as were the slopes. Most keen to return!

Few basic facilities
Disliked Purchased token for shower but it was cold so a wasted token

From the manager: So sorry about the cold shower, the boiler had a blip - it’s now been sorted by our plumber - unfortunately no one let us know .. if you had obviously we would have refunded you and sorted it out sooner. 🙃
