Having read other reviews the day before visiting I was a little apprehensive about my stay. Comments had included references to 2 German Shepherd dogs who were not particularly friendly and were placed near food service area I have to say this was not what we found. Yes there are 2 pub German shepherds but they were on leads away from service area and paid no attention to visitors at all those that did approach them were greeted by happy wagging tails.
On arrival we were greeted by one if the friendly bar staff who quickly ran through the set up procedure there was a little bit of confusion over which electric points was ours but this was so rectified.
We ate at the pub and carvery was tasty and filling. Food service was well managed during Covid and we were issued with a disposable glove to enable us to serve our own veggies.
We slept well and were not disturbed by traffic noise that I had read about in previous reviews.
We did not use the shower so cant comment on those but the toilets were clean and even though they are within the pub foyer area they were available throughout the night.
We found the area perfectly acceptable for an overnight stop over but it would not be our choice for longer stays as facilities are basic with only 1 visible tap.

We couldnt find either the grey waste or Elsen disposal area and as we were leaving early there was no one to ask again

Level pitches. Staff. Hot shower

Smell where we were pitched.

The pub pitches very good size.Landlord very pleasant as was all the staff.

Electric hook up

Being on the side of a busy road and not knowing the day we arrived the pub was closed all day.

Decent shower. Small, friendly pitch. Nice tho have a point at the pub.

Right on main road, owner made us camp close together although there was lots old room.

The Welcome, shower, pub food, location, flat pitch, lovely staff, Jackie was particularly helpful, affordable price

Ehu not reaching, intrusive site dogs not being under control (friendly and non aggressive but had our own dog with us who didn't appreciate the visitors) the grounds need a really good tidy to make the most of the space, I blame the tips not being open due to covid.
