The Skipworth Arms

Gostou Nice location and nice pub. Quiet area and looks of space. Had the potential to be fantastic but the issues let it down.

Não gostou We arrived around half 5 to be told they had ran out of electricity cards but that the owner would come once he had finished his dinner in around 45 minutes. The very friendly barman did give me a free beer at the pub as a sorry. But still without any electricity card 2 hours later I was disappointed to arrive at the bar to find the owner finishing his pint!!! Thankfully he didn't ask us to pay as at this point I was a little mad and so followed him stumbling across to our camper to get electricity sorted.

The toilets and showers looked great and good clean condition but no water! I did tell the man who said the system kept tripping and that he would sort it. Still not sorted this morning and every loo filled with poo!

There was some sort of drain issue at our pitch too so it was smelly!

Frustratingly, this place was chosen over somewhere else as offered free WiFi but we weren't given any details and by the time I thought about it, I couldn't bring myself to head back to the pub again. Good job we had some 4g there.

Price wise was great but I wish I'd just paid more for the facilities to be working and that dedicated service we expected.

Gostou The site and pitch size.

Não gostou The boiler had broken so the showers didn't work. I was not informed of this when checking in but I did contact the site manager and have been given a free weekend.

Gostou Lovely peaceful site, just far enough away from the Hussle and bustle of daily life. Nice little pub outside the site for evening drinks. Onsite fishing available at no extra cost.

Não gostou On this stay it was the lack of hot water due to a boiler failure. This has now been upgraded and all fine. Male showers are out of action so its the disable toilet you use. Toilet are clean but overheads need some attention. Pitch Electric posts need attention, some are in need of repair.
Fishing lake is prone to heavy weeding in the summer months.
