Powered grass and gravel caravan site
Liked: Location
Disliked: The site upon arrival was extremely muddy and unkempt
The greeting left a lot to be desired, we were shown an old faded laminated map and pointed to a location which had no numbers. Then when asked about number, said it’s flooded everywhere else and your the only ones staying as no one comes this time of year
The shower and toilet facilities need condemning and are dangerous. The decking is rotten and slippery to access.
The showers are likened to a bush tucker trial with spiders, cobwebs and mould. We were there 4 nights and used our own facilities rather than these.
The lighting in the shower blocks was almost nonexistent
My husband had to go to toilet in ladies after dark as there was no light in the gents.
Of the two cubicles in the ladies, the one toilet was not fixed and almost fell off upon getting up.
