From the manager: Sorry your stay wasn't a good experience for you. Our records show that your stay with us was on Saturday 16th March. Myself as the owner would have been in the bar of The Wellington Inn hosting our St Patricks celebrations where you could have spoken to me or any of the staff who would have been more than happy to help you. If you needed me out of pub opening times then my mobile number is on the sign at the caravan park enteance and also on your booking information so I am always available. I do a walk around of the site to make sure everything looks ok once all bookings have all arrived. And again in the morning after checkout time (so nobody feels like we are pressuring you to leave) As for the toilets it is on all information for you to read before you make a booking with pitchup. We can't be more honest with our advert for the site all information for the site, pub and whats in the area is there for you to read.
Great wee site at great pub.

Liked: Lovely stopover for 1 night. We had an evening meal at the pub, it was very nice. We did pre-book as advised and it was quite busy. Easy booking for overnight spot, choose your own spot upon arrival.
Disliked: Dogs not allowed in pub (only in beer garden) not ideal for evening meal in December.
