Liked: We stayed for 2 nights as a large group (16 children aged 3-11) and 14 adults! We had a great time, we were allowed to pitch together and had plenty of space to do so, on the level pitch. Staff were on site if needed, and the cafe was lush next to the beautiful lake!
Disliked: Possibly some cleaning products in the toilets, kept up high, just so you can freshen it up after the person before you has been in! An additional toilet and shower would be great, but the 2 of each that are there are more than adequate!

Liked: Lovely campsite, very friendly, not all squashed together, basic but good, clean toilet & shower facilities. Rentable fire pits are a bonus as well as SUPs if you don’t have your own. The lake has lots of access points & great for paddle boards, kayaks & swimmers alike, dog & child friendly. Perfect for families as well as groups.
Disliked: Only thing that could be improved on is the cafe menu, a kids meal option would be great as well as something other than sandwiches.

Liked: Beautiful lake setting, dog friendly. On site manager friendly and helpful.
Disliked: There are better sites for young children as no free space for play when all the pitches full and got to be super careful around the lake.

Liked: Everything, we booked the night before and for that much sort notice price was more than reasonable. It was great we hired a paddle board for the beautiful lake, walked around the grounds and had a nice calm nights sleep. Really lovely hot showers and clean toilets was so perfect.
Disliked: We didn’t get to use the cafe as was shut on our visit

Liked: Camping pitches were spacious. Lake was great for swimming.
Disliked: Only 2 showers and 3 toilets for total campsite. Both didn't appear to be cleaned regularly. Ran out of loo rolls in one. This was a mid week booking.
