Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: Very friendly and helpful staff. Small shop looked well stocked but did not need to use. Clean and heated toilet and shower blocks. Dog poo bags left to use was a thoughtful extra. Lots of space around each pitch. Footpath goes through the site.
Disliked: The weather made it challenging, the site was very wet, the same as the rest of the country.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked: Sheltered, we needed a place to hunker down during the rain and wind storm, this place was perfect! Lovely tree lined spot, clean showers and toilet. Friendly owners, who as the little shop wasn’t stocked due to it being wet and cold month so not that busy to get perishable items in, kind went and got us some bread. Fab circular walk from the site around the local woods too.
Disliked: Very little phone signal. Not important for some but it is for us.

Liked: First time at Kingsmead and not disappointed! Friendly check in and quickly sorted out a booking error on my part! (Booked the wrong date online!!) Nice quiet setting with adequate hot water available in the showers, which was welcomed as it was freezing the weekend we stayed. Will definitely be back
Disliked: Only thing I would like to see is thexstep extended up at the top showers entrance. Not too bad when the weather is ok but could imagine it being slippery during bad weather. Showers were perfect though
