Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: The location for our visit to See Bruce Springsteen in Sunderland
Disliked: On arrival toilets showers were spotless following day the women’s were horrendous no toilet paper and filthy not cleaned for 3 days (according to my wife). 25 hours of rain so most pitches were flooded and mud everywhere we did ask to move but the option was next to some rather loud guests so we stayed in the waterlogged pitch

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: Didn't use the swimming pool so can't review what it's like but we didn't really like anything. If you have children it may be fine but not for us
Disliked: Where to start? Our pitch was up a curb in a sea of mud and there was no way of getting the caravan onto the concrete slab. We were given another pitch that was more accessible. This is not the site for you if you want a quiet stay. Not enough staff to keep it clean and tidy.
