Kedvelték Gravel so dry

Nem kedvelték On a slope
Place was water logged, ditch was bone dry so need sorting out water running through the electrics so kept tripping out had to use gas tripped out at least 20 times even at 5 am in the morning.
We spoke to others on site and some had the same problem using the same post,went to have a word about the problem and they said there is nothing wrong no body else had said anything but we know different.
Main road into the touring side needs repairing, were you get fresh water from and get rid of waste water is like standing in a hole and was very slippery, paths around toilet block were covered in leaves so slippery and paths starting to come apart needs sorting i used the sinks in the block it's a good job I'm 6 foot because the were very high so if your a child or someone who is sort not good.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Hello, it's a great shame that the weekend you chose to come to Lakeside brought the first freeze of this winter which meant flurrys of wet snow. As temperatures fluctuated puddles did emerge and paths became icy. This is normal everywhere, not just at Lakeside, as the water cannot drain easily through frozen soil or paving slabs. I suspect that the cold weather was disappointing as exploring the area was much less likely.
Thankfully the majorty of our reviews are posititve so reading yours is naturally of concern; we take all comments seriously and your points will be passed on to the relevant teams.
Regarding the power; the electric boxes are a meter off the ground, checked regularly and watertight, so your issue was not water running through our electrics. Had someone else had a problem with tripping on the electric post we would have expected them to also report this to us so that we could fully investigate. It is more probable that, with the heating on high, attempting to use another energy draining appliance, such as a kettle was causing an overload of the 10 amp system which in turn led to your motor home and /or the post to trip which is unfortunate but preventable.
Regarding the entrance, the whole site was regravelled last year and the dip has gradually been created by vehicles turning on to the site throughout this busy year. It was due to be repaired last week but had to be postponed because of the bad weather. This will be completed as soon as it can be rescheduled. We'd like to hope that you may consider returnng in warmer weather so that you can fully appreciate our site and the local area.

Kedvelték Always good, friendly staff, nice enough site - nothing out of the ordinary but nothing to complain about either, will be back 👍

Kezelői megjegyzés: Hi Diane, we're pleased to see that you would return to Lakeside. It's a shame we'd had so much rain which, in the country, doesn't help with the ground underfoot and our sincere apologies for the noise from the groundsman who we were not expecting. Thankfully this doesn't happen very often but we'll pass a message on to their team to ask for a little more consideration for our holiday guests.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Hello Trudie, thanks for taking the time to write your review. We're sorry you had to leave early and hope that you will be able to come back one day to explore this lovely area a little more.

Kedvelték Friendly and welcoming staff, great knowledge of the area. The pitch was spacious, hard standing EHU, which backed onto the lake so great views. Toilets, showers and washing up area clean, with plenty of hot water. The showers are included on the cost and hairdryers are also provided. There is a washing machine and dryer on site.
Dark skies a d quiet at night.
A variety of walks directly from the campsite. 2 for 1 entry to Castle Howard included with our booking, which we took of advantage of, we also had a lovely lunch in the courtyard cafe which was delicious.
Will definitely return.
