Willow Beck Retreat Certificated Location

Ik was blij met Lovely clean site, quiet and peaceful.
Beautiful place too.

Ik was niet blij met Didn’t dislike anything. Only thing I’d say is I couldn’t get shower to a temperature I liked. Warm but only just, but I think that was me rather than the shower.

Ik was blij met Nice site in a countey setting, well located for the Windmill Festival. Water tap on pitch, grey and black waste disposal on site, pretty quiet too, no road or train noise

Ik was niet blij met Toilet block is neglected, no paper towels or rolls, we took it upon ourselves to give it a clean round, the site was quiet so no busy excuse will hold up

Van de manager: Hi thank you for staying at Willow beck retreat. The toilet block is complimentary. It is there in case you want to use it as a CL we actually don’t need a toilet block. The only thing we get any negative reviews about is the toilet block. I don’t live on site and I’m working away from home at the moment so it is difficult to pop round all the time. Most people clean the toilet after their selves as goes for toilet roll and Hand Towels it’s a CL thank you for staying at Willow beck retreat.

Ik was blij met Mixed feelings with this site.

Quiet location the majority of time, a bit of road noise on Sunday day with bikes and fast cars but not overnight or on the Monday/Tuesday therefore slept well.
Pretty surroundings.
Large pitch.
Water on pitch and electricity if required.
Warm shower
Picnic benches
I can see from previous reviews that some things have been resolved such as the step, cut grass and clothes hook, the toilets and shower were clean enough for being in a field, but other issues still remain see below.

Ik was niet blij met Didn't see anyone associated with the site, no access to information room.
No toilet paper in the toilets
Bins overflowing
No instructions received after booking or throughout stay (just standard pitchup email). There is a sign on the post on the pitch and in the toilets showing how to pay, which is straightforward.
I understand this is a small site and has extra facilities than required, however the facilities are advertised as included in the price so are expected. We were aware of the extra cost for electricity that required coins, we were fine with that.

Ik was blij met Peaceful site, within walking distance to the village shop and pub.
(pub doesn't serve food). Picnic table available for each pitch.

Ik was niet blij met Although the CL's do not need to have toilets and shower on site, this one was advertised as having both.
Unfortunately on arrival it was clear to see they are not clean. There is no soap, no loo rolls and no towel paper or otherwise.
The step up to the shower block is broken and very high. A couple of us struggled on site with the height of it.
Bins overflowing nobody emptying them, stayed 6 nights still overflowing when we left.

Ik was blij met Nice peaceful site, lovely walks close by.

Ik was niet blij met Nothing really but there are some old sheds in fields. These would make lovely secluded seating picnic areas

Ik was blij met Small quiet site with 5 gravel hard standing pitches with metered electric and water and grey waste. 1 gravel pitch which looked to be electric. Self serve pitch just turn up and pick one. We had pitch 4 which was spacious. Short walk into North Leverton which had a shop and pub, not serving food but has food trucks. 2 toilets and 1 shower on site looked very clean.
