Liked: Shoer facilities
Laundry facilities
Cleanliness of site
Friendly staff
Beautiful scenery

Disliked: The rain!!!!
But seriously, the only thing i was not keen on, was the sticky doors into the toilets at the park. It was like kids had put sticky hands on them and not been wiped down.

Liked: The facilities are easily the best we have encountered. Plenty of toilets and showers, all of which are cleaned regularly. The pitches are well spaced and the check in is managed really well with lots of people arriving at the same time so the site doesn’t become overwhelmed with vehicles aimlessly trying to find their pitch.

There’s a few washing machines and dryers at a very reasonable price, so you can pack lightly. Make sure to bring your own wash powder. There’s also a hot drinks vending machine and another with cold drinks and snacks in as well as the shop at the main entrance to the camp site.

The tourist centre where activities like Go Ape and Bicycle hire are is only a slow 10-15 minute walk from the camp site.

There is a coop, pubs and takeaways only a 7 minute drive away, and handily a post office with an Amazon delivery counter for when your airbed has a puncture on the first night.

Disliked: Very little to dislike. If I had to be critical….

The plug in one of the family shower rooms had blocked and flooded the shower room while the 3 of us showered. It did very slowly drain away. I did see the cleaners rectifying this shortly after.

The water pressure on the hot taps in the wash rooms sometimes dropped for a couple of minutes if there was a lot of people using it at the same time.

The WiFi could be temperamental but with lots of people using it, it’s to be expected.

No major issues

Liked: The services were absolutely amazing. All the Team members smile and help you to find the perfect pitch for you (even really undecided customers) when is heavy rain or hot days. The site is organised great for everyone (bickers, kids, families, dogs) and the facilities are spotless.
In the end of our holiday we had trouble with car starts and a member of the Team came with a tractor and jumper cables to help us. They are prepared for any situation. Well done guys, you are doing amazing job ❤️.

Disliked: My holiday was too short 😁

Liked: Pitches spacious enough and not to far from park and shower/toilet blocks. Love that there’s a dog wash on the park too.

Disliked: Not enough toilet blocks dotted about and no plugs in toilets etc for those without electric to do a quick charge

Liked: The site was ran so tightly and efficiently. Staff always happy to help and very knowledgeable.
I liked that you were taken to pitches on arrival and given lots of different options... quiet, sunny, shaded, family area etc. Beautiful site with all the amenities and more.
All toilets and showers clean and kept immaculate.
Pizza van Friday's and chippy van Saturday's.
Bike hire centre very short distance from camp site.
Children's playground closed at dusk. Basically lights out at 10, so everyone kept the noise to a minimum and staff rode around the site to check no fires or wild parties happening.

Disliked: Honestly haven't got anything to moan about, literally the best site we've been to and will definitely be back

Liked: Site was well maintained and the facilities were SPOTLESS!! We stayed in one of the Bothy family cabins which was a great size for us as a couple travelling with two dogs!

Check in was really easy and the staff that we did see were all really friendly, there was a pizza van on the Friday night….. which was delicious!!! And the guys hit extra points with my dog Dave for giving him and his sister Lulu some chicken while we waited.

There was an abundance of wildlife around which was lovely to see and hear and some fabulous walks through the forest which kept us and our hounds happy for the duration of our stay!

The dog wash was also a very nice amenity to have….. although the door seals could do with being looked at or even having a mop to clean up any water would be great!!

Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely come back again.

Disliked: The floor of our bothy cabin wasn’t the cleanest, there was a number of dead flies around and the floors (when I wiped them with some floor wipes I had brought with us) were BLACK!!

The rest of the cabin was spotless but the floors really could have done with a hoover and a good mopping!

Talking of mop it would be handy to have one in the cabins for our stay so that we could have cleaned the floors properly….. I’m sure had I have asked one would have been provided but as I had the wipes I didn’t feel the need, I absolutely think it would be worth providing one though…. Especially with the surroundings as those floors get FILTHY!!

Another thing it would have been nice to have is a dog park….. a little enclosure where dogs could have a little off lead time… I’m aware there’s a big old forest out there, but, my two aren’t always the best with recall and so it would have been nice to have somewhere they could go and chase a ball round in a secure enclosure with other pig headed dogs and their frustrated owners! 😂

The WiFi, isn’t 100% reliable it does dip in and out at peak times which could be frustrating at times however it wasn’t the end of the world.

The only other issue I had was with the hairdryers….. they couldn’t blow out a candle let alone your hair! 🙈😂 so either bring your own….. or have dry shampoo on hand if your not comfortable leaving your hair wet!!
