Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Nice location
Disliked: Only 2 portaloos for 2 fields of campers is totally unacceptable and unusable by the morning we left a day early Also the EHU points were so close together and pitches weren’t allocated so we had no space with people pitching very close to us after we’d arrived

Liked: De ruimte vrijheid en de centrale ligging. Was super daar. Gezellige sfeer in het dorp.
Disliked: Met een dixy is niets mis mee maar leeg hem wat eerder. Dan voorkom je veel vliegen.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Beautiful peaceful site. My dog was fascinated with the horses in the next field plus my daughter has decided to take up horse riding again which I'm so pleased about ! Anyway felt very secure high Street very close by . Budgens do a good bbq range too ! Owner had text me beforehand and let me know any issues can call her. I didn't need to but was nice to know. Toilets were very clean and well stocked with toilet paper too ! Didn't have the weather to go paddle boarding but if we had its a 10 min drive to do that
