Recommanderait à des amis Séjournerait à nouveau

Réponse du gestionnaire : 10/10! 🥳

Not heard of the fake wasp nests before, but that is something to think about, thank you. The Oak View Team. 😊

A aimé Pretty surroundings, not too busy, lots of space between pitches, good washing up areas, easy access/entry, lots of things to see in the nearby area

N'a pas aimé Toilets/showers quite basic, proximity to motorway meant traffic could be heard throughout the night

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you very much for your review Kate. We are pleased that you did have a list of likes , but sad that you had so many dislikes.

Most customers really like our showers and toilets and find them to be very modern. We would not be able to put up shelves on the toilet walls as this would stop them from being water tight as they are in one moulded sheet. This would also be a hazard and customers would be hitting their heads. We have to keep them simple for health and safety reasons. The plastic stools are for less able bodied customers to sit on.

Unfortunately, we can't move the road, and as we say on lots of our other reviews, we ask our customers to research where they are going, eg: proximity to roads etc before they book so that we don't get marked down for things that are out of our control.

The Oak View Team. 😊

A aimé Ground

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for your review Frank. That is very kind of you to say. 😊

We are not a big site and so we do not have the room for all of our customers to keep their cars on the grass pitches (customers with hardstanding may do if it fits) and it is also for the safety of your vehicle with lots of kids with footballs about. We need to keep what space we do have for the children to play. No one wants to look out of their tent at someone else's car.

Again, we ask our customers to do their research to see what we have on site.

As for fires, ABSOLUTELY NOT. This is our one big rule which is clearly stated on our PitchUp listing. This time of year, with no rain and everything bone dry, it would be total madness. We also have protected trees and young children on the park. Our customers are allowed a barbecue if gas, electric or charcoal and we advise keeping a bottle of water next to charcoal ones to be safe.

Having said all that, we would love to see you again sometime. The Oak View Team. 😊

A aimé Small, spacious site. Very peaceful. Woods to walk in and open ground next to it.
Very hot when we went, but we were allocated a lovely spot under trees…a large plot.
Showers, toilets and washing areas cannot be faulted and looked very new.
A few family groups, was school holidays, but still quiet. Everyone very friendly from our fellow campers to the lovely friendly lady in the office, who welcomed
us.
Good to find a site like this that is only 40/45 mins away. So easy for a quick relaxing weekend without the travel.

Réponse du gestionnaire : 🥳 😊 Thank you Carol!

You found so many things to like about us!

We have a lot of customers that stay regularly which is lovely as we get to know you all We really would love to see you again! The Oak View Team.
😊

A aimé Very nice staff
The pitch was big enough, not from the power socket
Very green area

N'a pas aimé Since the showers and the toilets are in the same room, it gets too humid/wet most of the time.

Réponse du gestionnaire : it was kind of you to leave us a review, thank you.
We have just had new extractor fans fitted in all our showers and toilets but it the sheer volume of people using constantly them when we are busy that is causing this. They don't have a chance to dry before the next one is in there. I do open the main door 40 times a day to try and solve this 😂

We would love to see you again, happy travels. The Oak View Team. 😊

A aimé Nothing fancy. Nice clean showers, toilets and washing up facilities with plenty of piping hot water. Reliable WiFi (if you’re pitched close to reception) and reliable EHU. Very friendly and helpful reception staff and wardens. Decent (not exceptional) pub around 20 mins walk from the site.

N'a pas aimé Yet another site and only pays lip service to their own rules - very noisy group of campers talking/shouting loudly and playing music up to 3AM on Friday night with no intervention from the on site wardens. If you publish “quiet time” rules (they do) then they need to be politely policed.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for taking time out of your day to leave s a review Chris. We are glad that you found us acceptable for some of your needs, we've never professed to be "fancy" and we are a touring caravan park, hotels are for "fancy".

Regarding the noise, had you brought this to the Wardens attention, it would have been dealt with. Even park wardens have to sleep sometimes.

We did allow you to come in late after our closing time and went to the trouble of sending you information and a map to your pitch to allow you to do this even though our closing times ate clearly stated on PitchUp.

We wish you happy travels. The Oak View Team.

A aimé Shower block was really good, hot and clean heads, which when compared to lost sites where you get listed this was like showering at home.
Washing and tumble drier really good priced and quick - ideal if you have little ones.
Flat ground and overall generally gorgeous. Would totally come back.

N'a pas aimé None.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you......yes, we are generally gorgeous. 😂

What a super 10/10 review! We would really love to see you again Emma! The Oak View Team. 😊

A aimé We only stayed very short, after a 9h trip from Schotland, and just before boarding the Ferry to France, but what we saw on this short stay was positive to say the least. Well organized, clean facilities, friendly and helpfull warden, and guests (also worth mentioning) and a cosy comfortable feeling during out short stay. Both recommondations and return on our behalf.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Florian, thank you. Cosy, comfortable and friendly is the vibe we are going for so that is awesome 😊

We would love to see you should you ever come to the UK again. Safe travels. The Oak View Team. 😊

A aimé Site owners were lovely and really helpful. A handy location for onward travel to Dover. Clean facilities too. We will be back!

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you Carrie!

What a super review! So our customers know who we are, I am Ruth and I'm manager, Kirstie is warden and Darren is her partner, and we also have the lovely Lynsey in reception when we are busy.

We will see you again! The Oak View Team. 😊
