Disappointed with cleanliness and very basic for price.
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Beautiful area with plenty to do.
Staff friendly and helpful as my son needed a ladder to reach the roof of his lorry which they kindly lent him.
Disliked Toilet/shower facilities weren’t kept clean. It had been raining so couldn’t expect it to be spotless but showers were wet room style with no mops to clean floor. Wasn’t even any hand soap in the toilets. Also searched for elsan waste point but didn’t seem to be one. It wasn’t a cheap site so was disappointed.
