The hands down worst caravaning experience weve had or will ever have.

May 2026

Liked The place was clean.

Disliked I will never in my lifetime set foot on this park again. I understood quickly why it was the only place we could find with availability at such short notice on a bankholiday. The manager was unbelievable. Rude, but extremely unhelpful this man should not be in charge of anything customer service related. He was rude to me, rude to my wife. I simply cannot for the life of me understand who would put him in charge of a camp site or anything that benefits from customer relations. He may single handedly ruin that business. We got our touring caravan there earky at 245pm (4pm check in) after a nearly 200 mile journey but we're told despite the fact there was only 1 other guest on the whole site, we weren't allowed on because it was against the rules. I explained that we had a baby that was becoming really restless and we needed to change him etc and begged for access because my wife wanted to sort the baby and I was tired from the journey but we were swiftly knocked back with an almost satisfied attitude. I remained calm and asked if there was somewhere we could park the car and caravan to wait. We were directed to possibly the most busy road in the area which was skinnier than Kate Moss after a weekend bender so when I arrived with a 4 birth caravan I had the road blocked almost immediately... After we got out of there we drove round for 20 minutes but could find nowhere suitable ro wait. By this time the heat was getting to us all so ny wife who's a Christian was close to tears and said she'd try to talk sense into him so she called and begged for him to let us in, even offered an extra fee but to no avail so we drove around to keep the air con on for the baby just hoping the car didn't overheat. This is the worst start to any holiday we've had, so much so that we nearly left for home. Once we finally got on site we were literally only the second van on site. he again was inpatient trying to give us his list of rules and regs but as you can imagine we found it difficult to talk to him after what we'd been through for the last hour. I bit me tongue because I didn't want to ruin the holiday any further and we got on with it. You had to drive through our site to get to what looked like a superior site with lodges next door which was clearly connected and that wasnt even half full which I can only assume is down to the kind of poor service this guy bestowed on us. The site has absolutely nothing apart from a toilet block, not even a swing for the kids, its nearly all tarmac and gravel and has none of the soul we've found on past sites we've visited.
