Very dark

Dalton, Anne - 20/03/2024

When we arrived the outside lighting was very poor and we even struggled to find the reception (which was also almost in darkness inside!)A Quick Look at the map and we were sent in. As there was very little lighting we really struggled to find the pitch as the numbers were hard to see in the dark. Once we managed to manoeuvre onto the pitch again in near complete darkness - there was not even a light at the hook up point - we enjoyed our stay. The facilities were warm, clean and modern.We would return as the location was ideal for us, but perhaps aim to arrive during the daytime.

Visited the site on the 7th and it was wet.

When we arrived it had been raining and the site was very wet and the road around the site was a bit rough. If it had been dry we could have enjoyed it better but will probably be back again.

Stayed here before . Great location for walking our dog around the reservoir. Local pub about 15 minutes away called 7 stars very good pub. Stayed on hard standing needs updating with some gravel as muddy around hard to get motorhome off it. There is some far better pitches but not always available as booked up. Nice new facilities good shower and toilets as old block of facilities now shut due to no longer good enough to use. Good play area for children

Friendly staff, lovely warm bathroom facilities and plenty of hot water! Good washing up and waste facilities, easy check in. Lovely and quiet and great value. For just a few pounds extra the fully serviced pitch was dry and level with a picnic table.

Lovely view, super clean facilities.

Redwood, Clint - 29/02/2024

Checking in was a breeze, and that was the only interaction with staff we had. Since this was Februrary, there were no many tents, so we had a good choice of pitch. However, all the pitchese are on a hill, and the section we chose was perhpas the flattest section. It might be quite uncomfortable on the less flat areas. This is why I've not given a 5* rating.The view was really lovely, over a vallley with woods at the bottom and both sides of the campsite. There is a publicly accessible wood just next to the campsite, but in February it was very muddy. We didn't use the showers, but the facilities block must be the warmest and cleanest facilities I have ever seen on a campsite, and absolutely deserves 5*s.
