Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Lovely place. Not far off the beaten track but enough to feel like you're away from it. Very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely stay again!
Disliked: Two small things: could do with a children's play area. There may be one but it wasn't obvious. Gate on grey water drainage area needs fixing. Minor things!!

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Decent location, clean pitches and facilities. Scenic spot with views of a nearby hill. Various walks and footpaths nearby and you can walk up the hill too. Small fishing lake teeming with small carp. Fishing is very cheap too.
Disliked: Limited facilities, 3 toilets and 2 showers for men. Was OK during the week but it filled up at the weekend and their was a queue for the toilet. Toilet area looked a bit rough but too be fair they were having some work done. No play facilties or areas for children, more suitable for older people.

From the manager: Thankyou Andrew for your review, as you said we are having a lot of work doing and making the site better. On pitch up we do state there is not a play park , but there are lots of amazing local activities for families
We did enjoy our weekend break

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Nice friendly site, Jo was a lovely lady, the lake was beautiful, we had great weather so that was a bonus
Disliked: We were on fully serviced pitches so obvs pay a bit more but was disappointed that those pitches didn’t have WiFi but the lower pitches did, wouldn’t normally bother us but we wanted to watch the semi final of the basketball as it was important to us
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thankyou for leaving a review, we are semi rural so we dont advertise the wifi as it doesnt always cover the whole site, but great to read you enjoyed your visit
Lovely well cared for family run site, you will need levelling blocks.

Liked: Sites were not on top of each other giving a feeling of space, lovely views too. Easy dog walking. Very well kept site with very friendly staff.
Disliked: The gravel road into the site was a bit noisy but did not distract too much from our stay (minor quibble!).
