Liked: Didn't actually end up staying. The motorhome wouldn't start and by the time the fault was fixed, it was too late to leave.
I called the site who promised to honour the booking when I visit on another day.

Liked: Sorry to say this place has changed in the past 12 months - visited in 2023 and was happy
Lovely warm welcome from the gentleman who runs/ lives on site - but that’s where the good review stops.
This is now a residential site with overflowing bins and cold toilets that didn’t get cleaned for 3 days.
People about are friendly but when people are living on a site it shouldn’t really be advertised as it is. Just be honest as to what you are providing and to who and let customers make a fair decision to stay .

Liked: Had late availability for a stopover. Facilities are decent and clean. Not expensive. Friendly welcome. Pub next door is lovely and friendly with good food.
Disliked: As others have said, this place feels like the majority of people just live there rather than a campsite. When we turned up they didn't know where to put us (although to be fair it was a very last minute booking).

Powered grass and gravel site
Liked: Easy to find with Google maps.
WiFi does work but no password needed so not sure how secure it is!
Disliked: Felt like staying on a site where everyone lived there permanently as almost all pitches had permanent owners.
Washing up taps had to hold tap down and got blasted with water.
Didn’t use shower.
Dog left parking most of the evening and started again at 6.30.
Pitch I was on you could hear the busy road from 7.
Well over priced £32 most I’ve paid and definitely not worth it should be more like £19 pn.

Liked: The way out
Disliked: The pitch was small and uneven the hook up was lying on the ground the bins were overflowing the site was full of old RVs and motor homes, in the adjoining field was what seemed to be a gipsy site, didn’t feel safe. Never been to a worse site. And thirty pounds was really over the top for a none fully serviced pitch.
