This review is rather old. Treat it with care.

Went to this site a couple of years ago, hubby, me and four kids in our tourer.
Site is lovely and is quiet after dark so families with small kids are not disturbed.
Toilets and showers are smashing!! Never in our years of caravanning have we found a toilet block as nice as this one.
Play area is a kids dream and ours spent hours on there. Only coming back when one of my boys spent too long on a spinny round thing getting too dizzy and then spent an hour with his head in a bucket!!
Only gripe I have is where we were put...on in a banking, it would have be ok, but there was a small ridge to get up and over onto the pitch and as we pushed the caravan it bounced back off the ridge and very nearly pushed us and it over and down the edge of the banking, I don't think the people in the caravan that we would have landed on would have been too happy! But thanks to some very strapping dutch men, we were able to get it over the ridge.
But other than that a good time was had by all!

Been to this site on many occasions and the facilities are first class.
I cannot believe that Barbara would be rude to anyone, she is a very nice lady, very helpful and accommodating, nothing seems too much trouble for her, or for the rest of the staff also.
Plenty to do and see in the surrounding area; loads for the children to do, even a games room in the barn for them when the weather turns nasty.
Superb parks for them to play in, one for the older age group and another for the younger age group.
Excellent toilet facilities and a well stocked shop.
Never had anything but a great time when we have visited this site.

We visited this site in Aug 2007 and because it was busy they put us in the rally field, which is before the barrier so we didn't even feel we were on the site itself. We were told it was good for cycling but they couldn't tell us where to go. We ended up on a road that was busier than the M1 on our bikes with young children with no respect from the motorists there. So if you want cycling facilities don't go here I wont be !

Remember that people are always more prepared to write and complain than they are to praise good service.

Lovely site with fantastic play facilities for children. Our six year old loved it.
However - beware making an innocent mistake. I disposed of our toilet waste in the wrong place. Only the second time we have been away in our caravan - it was pouring with rain as we were packing to leave - and the pipe looked just like disposal facilities at the last site we used.
Apology does not seem enough. Man I presume to be site owner was nasty, rude, and behaved like Viz character 'Farmer Palmer'. Absolutely no need to swear within hearing of our six year old. Pointed at my caravan where Asian wife, Asian neice & Asian nephew looking out. Loudly remarked, 'Bloody Filth' & 'Do not come back'. I perceived this as a racist comment. If 'Farmer Palmer' did not intend to be perceived as racist, perhaps he should have taken care where he was pointing as he was being rude. I would never go back!

Excellent caravan/tent site. We camped for 3 nights in July, staff were helpful and friendly.
Site was great for kids, 2 parks one for older kids and one for younger kids. We never saw our daughter, off playing all the time and enjoying her freedom.
Bit of a problem with our friends booking the wrong date and arriving a week late, but they were very accommodating and managed to squeeze them in.
Would recommend this site to families as its facilities were great and safe for kids.
