Liked I almost dont want to tell anyone how wonderful this campsite is, so that noone else discovers this lovely secret. The owners were so kind and helpful and we loved our stay.

Liked Toilets, showers and chemical disposal were all good.

Disliked Nobody came to see if I'd arrived. Nobody allocated me a pitch, so it was find a spare pitch and help yourself. Pitch sizes were not adhered to: a tent was put up between my tent and the one on the next pitch making the space between me and it ten feet, So close you could hear them snore. They had not booked and just turned up and pitched their tent where they could squeeze in. The owner did come and, instead of moving them on, just collected the money and left.

Liked Great location and facilities. The lakes and wildlife are great. It was lovely to see youngsters fishing and enjoying their summer holidays out in the fresh air.

Liked Owner when he turned up in the evening was friendly and checked I was happy with where I was parked.

Disliked On arrival it wasn’t clear where to go and I ended up in what I can only describe as a travellers residential community and parked up by a pile of broken pallets 🤔
I rang the owner and checked I was in the right place and he told me to walk around to the other field to see if I fancied anywhere else.
Fox field is much nicer and clearly the holiday maker field but there was no room.
I was only staying for 1 night so thought it doesn’t matter too much although I was disappointed.
I found a more suitable gap in Badgers field between a caravan and a motor home.
After an hour I was told to move by a resident so ended up in another gap.
I was now quite unsettled but had no where else to move to. There is no signal in this area so I couldn’t look for an alternative site.
A glass of wine and dinner and I felt a little better. The owner finally turned up around 8pm, was friendly and I said what had happened.
He said I shouldn’t have been asked to move and was I happy. I said there was no room anywhere else and I was ok.
In reflection I probably should have said I wasn’t happy to see if he could find an alternative but I was settled and didn’t want to pack up.

I had a disturbed night as I was opposite the gravel entrance and vehicles seemed to come and go most of the night.
Residents seems to be night owls with doors opening and closing and some banging. I had an unsettled night.
Next day I packed up and took my rubbish to the bin area which was overflowing with rubbish.
Toilets were basic but mopped down. One shower I didn’t like the look of but luckily for me I was wash facilities on board.
I wouldn’t rule out staying here again but would insist on being in the Fox Field.
