#3 electric optional hardstanding and grass campervan pitch (medium)
Liked: Facilities although another shower would be good
Disliked: Location we realise this is a plus for many but not for us, it was way too isolated there is nothing to do so much so we left early that and no WiFi or phone signal meant hours of boredom as no netflix etc available, you can explore by day but we don't go to bed at 8pm!
