The Old Dairy Farm Caravan and Camping

A aimé Nice little campsite situated near a really nice village. Facilities all ok and staff were friendly. Service taps located behind the pitches for easy access to water.
Toilets and showers were all ok.
An easy drive to the site through the village (no narrow lanes etc).

Even with the snow and -0 temperatures all facilities continued to operate normally causing no issues to people holidaying on site.

We would return 👍🏼

A aimé The site was good for kids it had a play area plus animals to keep them busy and entertained, also there was a busy train track next to the site which would of been nice for the train spotters 🤣

N'a pas aimé The toilets wasn't the cleanest with no hot water to wash your hands, and showers was terrible in my opinion also there was no were we could wash up for the time of year we was there, so they need to work on catering for hot water on this site has the site is open all year around.

A aimé Given the time of year and season, we enjoyed how spacious it was, if you love trains, you'll enjoy the trains that pass, we didn't mind them one bit. The kids also enjoyed interacting with the goats for hours and loved playing in the play area.

N'a pas aimé Slight bit of confusion on arrival although sign posted to go to reception for check in, we went to reception no one there and no real sign to contact anyone, luckily found a number on there on site shop to call and got sorted. We was told the owners wasnt there and they was looking after the place for them.
We couldnt do our washing up, there was no hot water at the area provided.
Also no hot water in the toilets to wash your hands, toilet facilities are important to us and its what we look for when booking. They wasnt the best nor the worst, cleanliness wasnt great and the locks on the doors weren't working and getting stuck.
The thing that ruined our stay the most was someone (which we assumed was a member of staff) telling us at 10pm that we was being too loud on new years eve?! We read the rules and knew its meant to be quiet time at certain hours but given the day it was and also everyone else making noise we didnt really know we was doing anything wrong.
We was watching our favourite YouTuber doing his flog off a projector which was connected to a speaker, however it was no louder than people talking? When asked we did disconnect the speaker but put a right downer on the night. Everyone else was still drinking outside there vans laughing/chatting enjoying new years eve where for some reason we found we were singled out? There was no one else really by us. If we was being anti social and causing a nuisance id be the first to apologise and admit. Even though we didnt think we was in the wrong we still obliged and was respectful. This just ruined our stay and for that reason we wouldnt return or recommend.

A aimé The location is perfect and scenery stunning. The staff are very friendly and the campsite itself is ideal, Unfortunately the kitchen and bar was closed as we went out of season. The site was very quiet. You do have trains passing right alongside and the Crowing Rooster - But for us this just added to the lovely atmosphere.

N'a pas aimé The showers were not great, Not much pressure and some wouldn’t heat up, Nowhere to put dry clothes etc. The facilities however very clean.

A aimé Great location, loved the animals and short walk to the canal into the village. Very peaceful even though it’s next to the railway and we were hardly disturbed by the trains.

N'a pas aimé Nothing to dislike! Will return at some point

A aimé Nothing

N'a pas aimé Campsite was not cheap but was nasty. Showers flooded as drainage wrong, only 2 sinks for shaving in toilets. No toilet brush so toilets dirty, very cheap home made facilities only cold water for washing dishes. No motor home service point and water on pitches off hard standing pitch so danger of getting stuck. Local facilities poor nearest bus stop with regular buses mile and a half away, local pub very expensive would never contemplate going there again

Réponse du gestionnaire : Wow where did you stay? Definitely not at our site!

This is so factually incorrect I’d have to rewrite the whole review. Easier just to read other reviews for the same period!
