Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The facilities themselves were OK and kept mostly clean the site was nice and location was good if a bit remote for shopping.
Disliked: The loo roll was barely filled each day we were lucky to have half a roll between all the loos I was having to go into the disabled loo to get loo roll at one point. Only other gripe was the washing up station had no plugs which made washing up a bit aquward.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: Plenty of space, flat pitches, friendly and amenable staff, good clean toilet and shower facilities.
Disliked: A little noisy from the motorway, but it's like white noise and doesn't really intrude.

It’s good value but there’s not much in the way of service.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Walking round the lake, meeting the goats and chickens and watching the birds and fishermen.
Disliked: Signs said no bbqs or fire pits but I noticed the latter were for sale - when I asked in eve shop she said ignore the signs, it’s under new management. Photos showed a playground which was a key reason we booked it but this was in fact inside the grounds of the local school so not available. The bathrooms were rarely cleaned and frequently ran out of toilet roll. The shower flooded within minutes because cleaners hadn’t cleaned the drain.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Lovely view of the lake and walks around the lake.
Disliked: Undesignated pitches so had to go back to reception to view cameras and agree a pitch. Staff were exceptionally helpful though so no complaints.
