Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Friendly staff. Despite me parking incorrectly and then setting up then Tentbox the staff saw the funny side. The playing fields were great to use when quiet with the dogs. Clean, tidy and warm toilets and showers.
Disliked WiFi didn’t work but the site are honest and say it is intermittent. Good to not have some signal for a short while so not a huge issue but it will be for some.

From the manager: Thank you for your review and rating Barry. In all honesty we are just getting to grips with the Tentbox ourselves as whilst we thought it was just a box on top of a car and that they all opened out the same way it turns out to be so much more :0) We hope to be able to welcome you back again in the future but until then...Happy Touring!

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Great location, friendly staff, good dog walking facilities.
Fantastic community pub within a short walk (15/20 mins)
The Shower was very good, the site was quiet during our stay.
Disliked The bathrooms were a little tired, and the pitching instructions we found less than clear, but small issues that would not prevent us returning to this site.
Poor wifi

Kingfisher bell tent
Liked The welcome - super friendly and welcoming, the facilities - clean and plentiful, the bell tent - had everything we needed and more, the site - quiet, but convenient location, cost - excellent value for money
Disliked No dislikes at all. Only (very small) suggestion would be some additional lights for inside bell tent - would make it perfect.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Cleanliness and tidiness of the site a toilets to a high standard. Welcome greeting on arrival with site information good
Disliked Left after 1 night if two.Fishing pond overgrown and not accessible and advertised as a lakes Despite emailing before we set off for a Fishing weekend to ensure we could fish it wasn't possible
WiFi wouldn't connect and mobile network poor so no TV connection for use.
Checked in Friday and left at lunchtime Saturday cutting the trip short
Fishing on a lake should not be advertised
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review and rating Lee and we're pleased you liked the site itself. However, we're so sorry to read that you left early due to the situation with the fishing.
It was myself that answered you enquiry and whilst I knew the pond was open and that clearing work had been cancelled due to very hot weather, what I hadn't realised was how overgrown it has become. So thank you for your feedback, we have started work at the pond today and sincere apologies that you weren't able to fish during your stay.
You also make a very fair point about our terminology and we have now changed our description to 'fishing pond'.
We do mention across platforms and in subsequent booking communications that wi-fi and phone signal cannot be guaranteed and that we provide TV aerial points but that you'd need a long length of coax to connect (most guests receive 90+ channels) Unfortunately, with phone signal this is very much dependant on your phone service provider as some get better signal than others.
