Liked: Friendly staff, campsite was well looked after. Modern clean toilet/shower block.
Disliked: Pitches small room for a caravan and car or caravan and awning not all three. We had to park our car in front of caravan which was then partially on the road. At other sites we have always been able to have car in one side of caravan and awning on the other. Electric was an extra charge which wasn’t made clear when I booked an electric pitch. We stayed for four nights and spent £15.50 just using kettle, a couple of hours of tv and lights at night. Also charging phones over night. We have never paid extra for electric when booking an electric pitch before. We have been caravanning for 30 Years. For these reasons we won’t be booking again.
