Liked: Small site but very well maintained. The pitches are a great size and well spaced out. There is no toilet or shower block on site but you can use the pub toilet if it’s open. The Wellington pub is a little gem, we had Sunday lunch which was amazing, all home cooked veg and locally sourced beef The staff are all really friendly and accommodating. .

Liked: Site was immaculate, spacious and value for money. The beer was well kept and too enjoyable.. On a very hot and busy evening The landlord/lady were constantly on the move and maintained their friendliness, alternatingbetween bar and food deliveries for respite. The beer garden was very clean and on a busy evening a vital extension to the dining area. The food choice was good especially the specials board. I watched some delicious looking meals been delivered. A great venue and team
Disliked: Nothing to dislike.. All possible issues are declared during booking, ie no showers.

Liked: Large level spacious pitches. Electricity included in price so good value. Area for septic, waste water disposal and drinking water clean. Very quiet location. Handy for M6. It was Monday so Pub closed and all the heavy rain meant the handy dog walking path was a bit flooded. Certainly will stop again.

Liked: This was our first stay out in our van. We loved it even though it rained all day and night. The pub is lovely and friendly. The food is lush and you get plenty. We had the Sunday dinner in our van as the pub was full. They plate it up for you.
