Arrived late and a really smart set up for late arrivals had me find a pitch and sort in the morning, no dramas. Lovely site, would've stayed longer but was heading North.

Brilliant site, spacious, green lots of mature trees. Facilities excellent, staff excellent. Shieling coffee bar is great and do lovely pizzas in the evening. Pitches spacious but some are a bit old and worn with thin layer of gravel and have water drainage which is higher than the pitch....hence the 4 stars.....would give it 5 for everything else. Lots of lovely walks for the doggo and a great little shop with a few essentials.....does amazing croissants and bread but only on 2 days a week....so you have to be quick! There is a beauty spa on site which is nothing to do with the park but is excellent Short walk to the village where there is a small shop a hotel with a pub and the watermill cafe which is excellent. Also you get free entry to the castle grounds which is lovely for walking and there is a nice restaurant there but not doggy friendly

Very nice and maintained site. Toilet and shower block fine. Most blocks were shut due to it being the winter period, but we were given a nearby pitch to it. Really nice area. I'd recommend The roundhouse inn for a great pub. The loft restaurant for amazing food. Lost a star due to no complimentary WiFi... £5.60 something a day!!! Outrageous!
