Liked: Great facilities. We loved the service pitch. Sarah was welcoming and knowledgeable about caravans and went out of her way to help us with a problem with our caravan. Clean facilities, great location, peaceful and pleasant. Great to recharge your batteries.

Liked: We booked a fully serviced hardstanding grass pitch which was huge. A drainpipe was in situ to connect our caravan directly into the drain. A hose pipe is also included on all pitches. The toilet/shower facilities are spotlessly clean and the whole site is well maintained. Sarah is very welcoming and helpful. Venus is a very nice and peaceful site and highly recommended.We will definitely be returning.

Liked: This is a lovely site and I have no idea why it was not full. The fully serviced pitch was a good size and well maintained. A hose and waste pipe were also supplied. The toilets were clean and tide. The site is a good location with good access to the whole area. We really liked this site and definitely will be back. Ignore the comments about road noise from the A1 as it was hardly noticeable.
Disliked: Not really a dislike but the odd aircraft did make up jump a bit.
