Electric grass pitch
Liked: Easy check in. Lovely local area with lots to do.
Disliked: A470 very close and noisy! Very noisy but was a BH weekend. Young chap in a Nissan micro with a broken exhaust driving in and out which was dangerous and noisy - seemed to live or work on site. Area around has been destroyed by horses - a real mess of electric fencing and mud.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: The site was easy to find and get to. With a local shop just down the road.
Disliked: The people managing the site were not welcoming and unwilling to solve an issue we had. Not all pitches are accessible by car so will need to carry equipment to pitch. The lighting at the washing up station does not work so difficult to wash up after dark and although the site does provide WiFi it is a poor connection.

Attendant on site until late
Good location as a base for activities
Shop/Garage within a 15/20 minute walk
Disliked: Site seemed very busy, not sure of its capacity or what it is licensed to hold. Maybe this was due to it being a bank holiday weekend, but wild stay again to see if it as busy on a normal weekend.
Not much room for kids to play football/cricket/frisbee etc…
Although there was an attendant on site, there were some people who didn’t adhere to noise rules after 11pm.
No onsite shop

Liked: The local walks was fantastic great views
Disliked: Rules are not followed ...... quite hours don't exist music till late by other campers constant slamming of doors, and screaming or screeching at 1am. Security don't do nothing to enforce rules.
Far too many dogs for one site owners don't all pick up after dogs and site staff wasn't interested, kids left poo in the toilets
So if you like to party all night long and love to walk in dog poo it's fantastic

From the manager: Hi, as per our response in the email you sent, the quiet hours are from 23:00 and the security guard did make sure it is quiet after that, guests receive instructions and rules on the time of booking , toilets where cleaned hourly, as the campsite was fully booked, people did go in and out and the rain did not help either.
As we said in the email, we recommend calling if there are any problems, the office is closed after a certain time, and we cannot answer emails.
King Regards!
