Liked: There was so much space and choice as to where we could pitch up. The toilets and showers were some of the cleanest I've seen and the staff were really friendly. The pitches backed onto country footpaths which were ideal for when we wanted to go for a scenic walk.
Disliked: Nothing I disliked.
