Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Nothing really. I don't normally do reviews - but that was just awful.
Disliked I was looking for something simple & convenient just for one night's stay in my small tent. Didn't need electrical hook up so could have gone pretty much anywhere. Was taken to a large field, shown plot marker post and told I had to say within 2 of them. Bearing in mind the field was almost empty why would you put me on the most sloping ground, close to the fast / noisy road?! I could have gone anywhere, in just a small tent. The ground was so sloping I eventually (after dark) re-located the tent into the flatter woods near by, but still on a slope. Have you ever tried (tent) sleeping on quite sloping ground - everything ends up in a pile. Not then end of the world, but coupled with (arm's reach) push button showers, off hand / officious (grumpy) member of staff, pin codes, road noise, sloping grass, significant price increase (circa 80%) just because I wasn't a member of the caravanning club and general lack of hospitality / welcome, clearly won't be going back. Hay-ho.
