Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Nice, small caravan site. Very neat and well kept. Had three male and one female toilet, and one unisex shower with a toilet, these facilities were very clean and hygienic. They didn’t charge for the dogs but asked for a donation to the Air Ambulance via a charity box in the summer house. (Brilliant idea)
Disliked: The front gate had a padlock with numbers on a barrel. Four numbers had to be manually lined up to open the lock. It was a bit fiddly especially in the dark!

Liked: Lovely little site, friendly owners and clean facilities (didn't use shower ). Short walk to village pub.
Disliked: Quite close to A17 so quite a lot of road noise. Probably not noticeable in a van/motorhome but we were under canvas so didn't get great nights sleep.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Loved the quiet, peaceful site. All very well kept. Basic, only one toilet for ladies and one for the gents, but very clean and well looked after. Judith was always walking around the site, keeping an eye on things, but not in an invasive manner. On Sunday there was only us there. Good public footpaths in the area. Village pub is a short stroll away down the main street, with good food and drinks at reasonable prices.
Disliked: you need a long hook-up lead, but Judith has spares if yours doesn't reach.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your kind comments. Just for clarity: There are 2 lady's toilets and 3 men's. You only need a longer lead if you want to camp at the far end of the field away from the hook up points [usually when there is a group/rally]
