Electric grass pitch
Liked: Couldn't wish for a more friendly welcome. All the staff were really nice and always ready for a chat. The pitch was a really good size with electric and water very close by There is a lovely little shop on site that also sells wonderful food. All fresh cooked to order. There is a man drives round late afternoon with logs if you want them, thought this was a great idea. Not that we were interested as a mature couple but there was a nice little play area for the children to play in.
Disliked: The showers didn't have shower curtains so you had to be careful where you put your things but this isn't really a hardship The wifi was a bit intermittent as with most camping sites. There are only two toilet blocks which means that there can be a fare walk for some as the site is huge.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Very friendly staff with quick and efficient check in process, staff could not do more to help. The amenities were always clean and in good working order. The pitch sizes were the biggest we have experienced, very generous however this did lead to one problem (highlighted below) The on site shop had all basics and a good stock of tent supplies should you forget anything (like we did!) close water points to the electric pitches
Disliked: The size of the pitches lead to a problem with our electric hook up. We were on the very end pitch on the row and our cable did not reach from the hook up point to our pitch. Luckily we were across two pitches and so cold move into our friends pitch (due to large size!) which meant we could use electric hook up. definitely consider an extension.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Loads of space plenty of room for pitches facilities clean snuff to use
Disliked: Dogs from seasonal pitches continously barking all day and night saws and drilling noise all day from seasonal pitches we was at bottom of hill in the dip when it rained field floods (lucky we had 4x4) continously getting pestered to buy logs by owner many times a day Onsite Shop is cash only and useless do not sell essentials only kids toys and chocolate ect for kids 1 toilet block on site and so far away from pitches unless your sesonal pitch if you cannot walk far you not allowed to drive to facilties No car movement after 7pm at night Toilets blocks locked at 7.30pm till 7am We brought loaf bread and cheese on sites in shop and was charged £6.90 for it water taps on post and not secure so you have to hold post and fill barrel at same time Play park is falling apart not safe zip line dosnt work We left early did not stay full time

From the manager: Hi, Thanks you for taking the time to leave us a review, and it was good to see that you found our campsite spacious & the facilities clean. To answer your other points, we take on board that you disliked one of the seasonal pitch holders setting up their pitch. Reception did email all customers prior to arrival advising that certain parts of the campsite might be muddy, and the log man does deliver logs onsite which we have found most customers like (he certainly doesn't pest people to buy anything!). It is a little strange to complain that the shop only sells chocolate and toys and then also complain about the bread and cheese you bought there? We have checked that the zip wire does work, but if anything is reported as not working, we look into it as soon as possible. The toilet blocks are certainly not closed from 7.30pm. We do ask that cars are not driven around the campsite after 7.30pm and this is for the safety of other campsite users.
Camping site was massively big. And staff was very friendly. :) Thank…

Liked: The location was nice, a beautiful part of the countryside. The staff in the cafe/shop were very friendly and helpful. The toilet and washroom facilities were clean and well maintained.
Disliked: As it was getting towards the end of the season, not all of the toilets were open. My nearest toilet block was locked. The shop was geared more towards children with plenty of sweets and ice cream. I would have liked a bigger selection of foodstuffs and some camping equipment and not jut BBQ tongs. A strong Wi-Fi signal was only available in and around the cafe and toilets.

From the manager: Hi and thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. It was great to see that you enjoyed our beautiful location, well maintained facilities and found our staff to be friendly and helpful. The shop does try to cater for the most popular items, but will have less perishable goods during very quiet periods. During October, the campsite is very quiet which is why the main facilities block was open, but not every toilet block is open. You can of course pitch near the main toilet block if you wish.
Facilities are maintained good. Good enough space for the kids. It’s very…
