Have just stayed at a lovely little site in Necton, Norfolk. Non Electric, but lovely secluded, level site. No road noise as off quiet lane. Mr & Mrs king are very friendly owners of the Mona bungalow site. Cockerel next door did tend to crow rather too loudly at day break for quite a while. Fine if can sleep through it as my husband did

It's one of the joys of the countryside. It's never really quiet, especially at Harvest time. But the noise is better quality!

Gee, a cockerel crowing in the countryside, whatever next!

I think it’s lovely to hear.

Why did you not wring its neck and put on the BBQ

A few years ago the oaner of a CL and I were having a chat. He asked if the Cockerel and hens that wandered around the large CL were a nuisance. No problems I replied. Good he said, because he had to shoot the last cockerel due to complaints from customers! He wasn't joking. Apparently the chickens belonged to the pub next door and he'd asked the owners to stop them coming onto his field. The complaints allowed him to take matters into his own hands!

We made sure we were on our best behaviour for the rest of the stay. CL still there but neighbours moved on now, unsurprisingly. However, the CL owner was extremely pleasant. The joys of staying on CLs.

We used to have chickens, including a cockerel. They lived in a fairly sound proofed shed, in deference to our neighbour's. We did get a strange woman knock on our door one day, enquiring what the unusual noises coming from our garden as they had made her little daughter frightened! Neither mother or daughter had ever seen or heard a live chicken before! They live amongst us!

Spent a delightful 10 days recently on a very rural site in Spain, a bit like a CL with pool etc. One of the things we most liked was the sound of the flock of sheep (many with bells) making thier way too and from the dairy even though the first trip was at dawn..

Sheep going to the dairy? Really David?
