On arrival we were surprised how slopey the site was as was not stated on website.after a time of finally getting the caravan level we went to walk dogs on back field to find litter and also a dirty nappy.on the friday night was kept up past midnight because of other people partying.by friday night campsite was nearly full and still only 1 toilet/shower block.the cleanliness of the shower/toilet block was not great at all,needs to be done more often.the showers were full constantly as only 4 for the whole site.site really needs some attention and effort.£32 a night is way over priced for caravans

Great Site

Murgatroyd, David - 18/07/2024

Good all-round site. Views good and the site was nicely forested and the facilities are very good. One perk is that you don't need to pay for a shower. Not cheap but not expensive either and the staff were really friendly. They let us stay on till 1:00 on our last day free of charge so we could pack the tent away dry.One slight issue was that they want you to be on site by 5:00 when reception closes or else you have to pre-arrange something with them.

Not for us

Baines, Julie - 12/07/2024

Pitches have quite a slope on them, rained once whilst there & quickly became quite muddy outside the door of the motorhome. Not sure why the toilet/shower block which is nearest to where the majority of the pitches are is closed , the new block is up near reception. As far as I was aware none of the 5 pubs in the village do food. No drive over point for emptying waste water from motorhome. As we set off on the Saturday afternoon to walk into the village the guy in reception had just left pinning a note to the door to say back in mins but on our return to the site (which was well over 90 mins later) the note was still on the door & reception was still closed

We've stayed here twice now, both times have been peaceful, with beautiful greenary and views to look over. My fiance is disabled and we used the disabled shower this time.Everything was good, grass was nest and tidy. There are bins, elsan point, and a water tap.Ladies, gents and disabled showers and toilets,with hair driers that are free.If you are looking for a peaceful break this is great option.

Nice enough. Room for improvement.

Wainman, Matt - 07/07/2024

The good:*Plenty of toilets and showers.*Some nice walks close by.*Play area for kids.*Front desk sells drinks and ice cream.*Plenty of space, not tripping over neighbours.The bad.*Guy at front desk wasn't there when checking in, phoned him and was told he'd just be a few minutes... 45 minutes later he still wasn't there, another staff member ended up checking us in but even then, another staff member walked by before then and did nothing.*Toilets weren't cleaned often enough (once every 2 days, made me wonder what all the staff were actually doing there).*had 2 people LIVING in the caravans right in front of the toilet block, made it a little uncomfortable like you're walking on their driveway.
