Great site but poor check in

Its a lovely site and we had a good time, but the check in process requires more patience than you might have after a long journey as you drive around trying to find a pitch that is free. Not being familiar with the layout on arrival, had to leave the car/caravan walk back to reception and get the map market up with the few free pitches and even then my wife had to stand there to stop someone else taking it. As long as you know this it will be fine.
