Liked: The site was very nice and well maintained .Amenities there was good.The pitches were nice and level and staff very friendly.
Disliked: The only dislike was that there was constant road noise from the A30 which never stops. We stayed for 2 nights but ideal for a stop over for 1 night

Liked: Definitely want to stay here again! Owners were so friendly and helpful, the facilities/showers are very clean, well stocked and heated, and the pitches are very spacious. This is a fantastic location for the Granite Way for cycling or walking, and the Pump and Pedal is right next door, where they do food and drinks from 10am to 8pm. Highly recommend!
Disliked: Absolutely Nothing.

Liked: Clean and tidy facilities. Friendly staff. Easy access onto Granite Way and moors for walking. With current wet weather pitches drained well and we're level.
Disliked: No shops nearby, bike rental shop with Cafe open during day with limited menu. Not a problem for us as we came prepared. This is also highlighted in site description so shouldn't be a surprise.
