What customers say
This picturesque site in castle grounds gets rave reviews for spacious, well-kept sites, friendly staff, and excellent amenities, including a popular pub. Visitors love the beautiful scenery and woodland walks, perfect for dogs. Some found toilet facilities dated, and occasional noise was noted. Highly recommended for a relaxing stay.

Power optional cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
Liked A great check in with a full run down of faciltites, guidance to pitch etc.
Location, peaceful as darkness fell upon the park. Kids feeling free to be able to play and run around was good.
Showers and toilets were clean, plenty of hot water available.
Disliked The use of powered vehicles. The vast number of kids that were seen to be riding powered electric scooters and bikes was vast. This included a couple of lads that appeared to be doing wheelies all around the roads.
At check in there were no instructions from the park relating to the use of or restrictions preventing the use of.
The question therefore is, in the event of incident, who would be liable?
It may also be an idea on opening the office to have a person check the toilets, or in particular the toiley rolls situation. All cubicles were devoid of toilet paper at 0900.
Pitches are at an angle, blocks needed to level the motorhome, nothing too major though.
