What visitors say
From the looks of it, the park offers a lot and sounds very well run. A number plate check and lots of space, curfew rules from 11. All this sounds (or reads) great). Turns out that none of it is true. Yes the owners make it seem like it is nice, but in actuality the site is very run down with little to no support for problems or issues. The amenities are very dated and not very clean. The curfew is a farce. We had a drunk next to us playing music very loud until 4 am. And no matter who we contacted, the person playing the music, or the owners, nothing happened. Avoid if you've smaller children who need to sleep or you want a somewhat modern campsite.

Love the park. The staff were brilliant. Well cared for around the park. Always helpful and caring. The thing that let it down was the toilets and showers. Toilets wouldn't flush properly and being disabled I wouldn't use again as I slipped on the poor floor. Which Was old and ruff around the edges. No night lights so you had to walk in the dark. Also no disability shower room. For the price that you pay you would expect more. They seem to be concentrating more on holiday homes which is a shame . My hate is that some people don't go with the rules dogs must be kept on a lead at all times. Had 2 small dogs running around. Please read rules.

We stayed for a week from 12th April 2021. Had Static caravan No 3. Very spacious. It was clean and tidy, well stocked with everything you needed. It was a bit cold this week, so was glad the central heating worked and a small electric fire as back up in the lounge. Park was clean and tidy, although it looked like some work had been going on . Staff friendly, loved the place, was secure. Cheers all for a great stay.
