Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The site had level pitches, was well maintained and quiet despite the nearby busy road.
During our first few days, the shower pressure was so poor that we used onboard facilities. This was remedied though and we enjoyed lots of hot water from high pressured showers, in the very nice individual shower rooms with sinks, WCs, hand driers and even shaver points. These were kept remarkably clean at whatever time of day we used them as was the wash up area.
It was easy to walk over to Lidl when we needed anything
The ANPR made it easy to access and leave the site whilst providing good security.
Disliked: In some areas, the pitches were fairly close together
The 10amp electrical supply took a little getting used to. We had to remember not to run more than one domestic appliance at a time.
Wi fi was not available on the pitches

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: From the moment we arrived, everything was clean, well-organised and cared for. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. The campsite was offering a good mix of privacy and community. What really stood out was how family-friendly the park is. There was a great playground for kids and indoor softplay. In the evenings, the park was quiet and peaceful—ideal for relaxing.
Food and ice cream van was a great surprise! After a long day of hiking and exploring, it was such a treat to grab a delicious hot meal without needing to cook.

Liked: Booking was easy and the site was nice, clean and quiet staff were nice
Disliked: The worst thing about this site is the showers, they don't exist in the block near reception the block is clean and has individual cubicles with a sink, toilet and a press button on the wall that dribbles water for a few seconds not a shower a great shame as we enjoyed the site and the staff are aware of it , it is being replaced next season
