That's the best I can say about it. You camp on a vast sloping tarmac car park. The loos aren't CAMC quality. The staff we were received by were just, there. Will not return willingly. · via Google [Bernard Elgar](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/104599324286586748202/reviews) ★★★★★ Great location, knowledgable, friendly efficient staff.
