Positives & Negatives!

Firstly lets go with the positives, Friendly owners lovely views with access to walks all around the farmland. Site is all hardstanding so good for wet weather/ wintertime. This is a farm where lots of horse owners arrive with their trailers for riding off road within the farmland. The access road is narrow and will only allow one direction of travel so when you leave the motorway you need to pull in and call the owner to make sure no horse trailers or caravans are leaving the site you don't want to meet another trailer coming the other way the access road is quite long & twisty fine for one direction! Loo emptying point is a long way off the CL & you are asked not to empty your loo during week days 9 to 5 as the disposal point is a couple of metres away from office windows! Of course the other solution would be to move it to the CL location! What is not advertised when you book is the fact that you are only allowed 10 units of Electricity in with the site fee, each service point has a meter on it, I thought that this was against regulations as reselling of Electricity is Not allowed? May be the club could clarify this point? So long as you don't mind the rules and access issues you will enjoy and have a goodtime.

Comment from the CL Owner:

Many thanks for your review and we are delighted you enjoyed your stay with us.  We carefully manage the access for all our visitors, and believe that we do this efficiently to ensure trouble-free access and exit.

With regards to the EHU metering, we make it clear on all communications and on our website that in colder months we choose to recharge usage above the 10 units included within the pitch fee at cost. 

This practice is within the regulations decreed by OFGEM and is now commonplace across many hundreds of CL and commercial sites. 

FYI With the advent of electric cars, on-board electric heating and the numerous electric gadgets and heaters that visitors can now use, the metering of EHU usage will become more prevalent.

The secondary supplier agreement allows the resale of metered electricity but only at the same price as the seller is paying for it. The seller should provide details of his agreement and prices.
