New Green End Farm

Tyckte om Great amount of space

Tyckte inte om The positives, very large site and you felt like you had loads of space. Great for dog walks, especially as shaded by the trees.

Loved the fire bells (never noticed these before so may be a legal requirement because of the current heat) but very good to see in light of recent grass fires etc. Kitchen/wash up facilities inside the block were clean. Toilets were cleaned but probably not as often as they should have been. Great vending machine inside the kitchen area with a great selection from Mug shots, packets of sweets and even dog treats. Loved the fact there was free sanitary towels in the ladies (although sadly, I think most of these were used as toilet roll on Sunday morning as they ran out of toilet paper).

The not so great - Shower facilities. They worked and had hot water which was great but they are outside (i.e a little wooden cubicle next to the toilet facilities with a gap around the top so you wouldn’t want to use them in the wind or rain as it would blow through the gaps at the top. Very small (the size you’d expect for a single toilet cubicle, not a shower), these need to be doubled in length as there was no space to move out of the way and dry yourself. Not what you’d expect for £45 a night, even if it is during school holidays.

Toilets good working order but should have been checked on more often, especially in the morning on busy check out mornings as the ladies had ran out of toilet roll by 10 am on Sunday as everyone was using the facilities before leaving the site (as expected). Otherwise, appeared reasonably well cleaned and maintained.

On arrival - you need to call the manager on arrival. We only knew this as I’d booked last minute on the day so I actually read the small print in the pitch up email, but usually I wouldn’t bother. There is a very small sign by the gate advising you to do this, but obviously this wasn’t big enough as people were arriving and not knowing where to go and headed for the shower block assuming it was the reception to check In.
As a suggestion, they either need a bigger sign telling you to call on arrival as you come in the gate or they also need a large sign on the toilet facility block telling people to call the site manager on arrival as people were arriving and not knowing where to pitch and assumed the toilet block was the reception and then walking round still not knowing what to do as they didn’t see the sign when they came in. As a suggestion, they should number the electric pitches (I.e 1-6) and have a sign to make this obvious on the shower block telling people Electric pitches 1-6 with an arrow pointing towards them, non electric- pitch where you like as there were people pitching in the electric areas who were later moved as people who had paid for electric were coming later that day and electric pitches were limited in comparison.

Overall, lovely spacious site but not worth £45 a night (despite being electric and in school holidays so I would expect to pay more. Non-electric pitches were probably much more better value for money.

Från föreståndaren: Hi thanks for taking the time to leave feedback, our bell tents are great if you just want to rock up and just chill with a glass of something you love.

Hopefully see you again soon.

Tyckte om Very peaceful, large field with great view of the sky, good location with a couple of good pubs nearby serving food.

Tyckte inte om Not really a dislike but minor feedback - It was not clear where to place any rubbish but after asking another camper found there were large bifa bins back at the entrance which we hadn't noticed when arriving.

Från föreståndaren: Hi and thanks for your feedback, yes we have some fantastic pubs near by, mention the site for a 10% discount! everything helps :)

Unfortunately you will have arrived when we change out the bins and they are located at the gate for Biffa our bin contractors to collect, normally they are right besides the toilet block.

Look forward to seeing you soon.

Från föreståndaren: Hi, thanks for your feedback, good or bad reviews always help us improve, can't do much about the planes; we certainly disagree about the facilities, we are basic but over 90% who stay with us also disagree, they love our kitchen, showers and clean toilets, maybe camping isn't your thing!

Best Regards

Awesome comments thank you, hope to see you again soon.

Tyckte om The site can only really be described as basic but for me, this was more than adequate. The grounds are good and the site is very quiet. The amenities cabin, with toilets, vending machine, fridge and freezer, washing up sink, electric charging points and adjacent showers blocks share the basic but acceptably functional nature of the site's apparent ethos. However, I can't complete this review without giving props to the proprietor's very relaxed, approachable, honest and accommodating communications they provide. They accepted my very last minute booking and late arrival (10pm) and insisted they be contacted at any time if I ran into any issues - which I did when I missed the entrance and was guided back to the site by phone. If you're considering a stay here, you can find their number on Google and call them directly to discuss any queries. Thanks to Martin and the staff for that.

Från föreståndaren: Hi thanks for the honest feedback, we do have quite a few quests that arrive late for all sorts of reasons, we never turn people away on late arrival as life just gets in the way and our easy self service sites ensures you can get to us safely and at what ever the time knowing you can relax before your on going journey.

Hope to see you again soon.

Tyckte om Good facilities, including hot showers
Fairly quiet, enough room
Walking in the woods

Tyckte inte om Planes until the early hours which were fairly loud. Felt like a lot of people for amount of facilities on the Sat night. Could have just done with a bit more info on where we could walk

Från föreståndaren: Hi Rebecca,

Thanks for your feedback and we will take on board your comments, with regards to the planes we are in the flight path but we can have days if not weeks without a single plane as it all depends on the wind direction so it all down to luck unfortunately, but thank you for coming to stay with us and hopefully it will be calm skys next time.

Regards

Martin

Tyckte om Nice flat pitches and plenty of room.

Tyckte inte om Washing up facilities very minimal with only one sink for such a large site and no hot water
