Liked: nice site shame my stay on this occasion was not good
Disliked: the whole three days of my stay was spoilt with the sound of 5 yapping dogs which started between 6am and 7 in the morning and then to top it off the van next door smoked pot all the time not what i need to smell and as for the rules of the site alot of them went straight out the window

Disliked: Neither club houses were dog friendly despite the site being dog friendly

From the manager: Sorry you didn't realise the dogs were not allowed in the facilities.
I did double check that I had it set correctly within PitchUp and it does say "Dogs are prohibited from main facilities and amenities" sorry you didn't spot that.
Hopefully you’ll find some dog friendly bars on your future hols.
Regards
Robert
