The Railway Inn

A aimé Staff very friendly and the pub food was good.

N'a pas aimé Toilets and showers were disgustingly dirty and tatty. So much so that we couldn't find a shower clean enough to use. I would rate this site as being worth £20 for use of a pitch, not £35 for a pitch and use of showers and toilets. The site was crammed with campers so you would think they could afford a cleaner to maintain the showers and toilets.

A aimé Staff friendly at check in

N'a pas aimé Everything else! Write up said spacious pitches .. we were crammed into a space with 2 other MHs and none of us has room to wind out our awnings. Noisy until late due to people sitting outside and music (despite rules saying no noise after 10.30). Shower/toilet block..simply awful. Booked for 2 nights, left after 1st !

A aimé Nothing.

N'a pas aimé 1) Probably OK if you were in the campervan/caravan side to the right as you enter the site which has spacious, defined pitches. We were in an area to the left as you enter with undefined pitches and tents and campervans crammed in like sardines.
2) Whilst the temporary generator was understandable and unavoidable, the noise was awful which made it an expensive and unpleasant stop over.
3) Toilet shower block was very dilapidated. We have stayed at cheaper sites with much better facilities.
4) Skip for rubbish absolutely stank and full of flies.

A aimé Pitch sizes to the right of pub are good size.(looked extremely crowded to the left). The girl who showed us to our pitch was very friendly, but didn’t know where the chemical toilet disposal was located, or the fresh water.

N'a pas aimé It felt very much like the pitches were part of the pub car park. The rubbish facilities were meagre, filthy and smelly. The shower and toilet block were old, dirty and not up to a decent standard. The floors were constantly wet as there were no mops left out for people to clean up after their showers. There was toilet paper in the toilets, also in the toilet locks , on the floor and in the sinks. There was still a generator being used on site for electricity, so quite loud( although after a while you got used to the noise). The site is within 20 feet (ish) of main train line, so lots of trains back and forward. With some investment and thought/planning, this site could be reasonable.

A aimé - bar staff very lovely

N'a pas aimé We booked up early July for the last weekend of August. On arrival we were shown to what was called “the VIP area”, we were informed this was very private and quite. This was located around the back of the pub, this appeared to be the garden of the property upstairs.
This pitch was only accessible by walking through someone’s washing on the line. This was brought up with manager and washing was taken down the following day.

The pitch directly looked into the pub, therefore when trying to relax we had people watching us whilst waiting for their meal to arrive.

We paid for an electric grass tent pitch, however this was not provided where we were pitched.

Slept great the first night, however, second night karaoke started and this went on until after 11pm. Despite the site stating in their information leaflet “no noise after 10.30pm”. We went into the bar after 10.30 to enquire when it would finish as we had two young children who were having difficulty sleeping due to the noise level. Advised it wouldn’t be much longer, we attempted to close the windows from the outside to restrict some noise coming out to little effect. These were later closed by the bar staff after request, however it was still very noisy given we were roughly 8 feet away from the pub.

Was woken at 1.20am on the Sunday morning when the residents of the upstairs property were entering and exiting their back door. This was accessible through the garden we were located in. This woke my 2 year old daughter as the sound of high heels on the hard floor and the gate being opened/closed was disruptive.

Had a meal in the pub on our second night which we couldn’t fault, food was lovely and bar staff were very accommodating! However, whilst eating our meal there was a couple who appeared to be regulars sat at the bar using the most vulgar language which isn’t appropriate especially when young children are present.

Toilet facilities were run down but we did not use these unless necessary as we spent a lot of time off site.

Do not think it was worth £35 a night to camp in someone’s back garden.
