Liked: The farm shop and the park. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Disliked: The position of our caravan which was next to the noisy road. We had no sleep for 3 nights . The site was extremely muddy due to wet weather but the roads around the site could have been better.

Liked: Lovely informative and helpful staff, lovely bathroom. Very easy to find.
Disliked: Very poor lighting near toilet block, lots of trip hazards before lights came on. Only partially gravelled parking areas causing you to drive over very muddy areas.

Liked: Clean toilet/shower/washing up facilities. Safe areas for children to play (no worry of cars as there is a central grassed area with no vehicles to pass through. Great Playground for children Lovely shops on site Safety barriers entering site are reassuring. Great location to town centre Lovely walks, no need to drive anywhere.
Disliked: None- you can hear the motorway (as clearly explained before booking), but it caused no problems whatsoever. Don’t let that put you off.
