We are regular users from 185 miles away, rating, +++++++++++++++++++++

We like this site. We were pitched beside Mr Moanalot at the top, what a winger (can't please some people). The site is basic, but it is tranquil. It is nicely out of the way and a darn site better than some we have stayed on, beautiful bird song all day, horses in the field nearby. After another couple of years of settling in with regular mowing [that couldn't be done this year due to a 100 year negative weather cycle] the ground will be fine. Jude & I love it, we stay regular and visit the family. "Get real Mr Moanalot" these days people download walks from the net, but according to your final comment, you won't bother again.

Ease of arrival/welcome

September 2012

We wanted peace and tranquillity, we got it. Not driving a 4x4, and having got bogged down in a swamp in July, and stuck at Chatsworth Country Fair (on the showground, not the camp site), I was a bit apprehensive about arriving at this site, as I knew no-one would be around as Louise does not live on-site. I need not have worried. I had exchanged texts the evening before arrival, and she assured me the ground was dry. It was. There are 2 permanent vans on-site, and the occupants are rarely seen, and friendly when met. This site was bliss - basic (water, electric, waste disposal) amenities, the grass was a little long with abundant nettles & docks on the edges, but if you chose your spot it was lovely. The house next to the site has been re-furbished (no-one living there yet), and the major noise was the combines followed by the straw balers & and disc harrows in the neighbouring fields working to get the harvest (wheat, I think) in before the weather turned (again!). They worked from late morning till c.10 p.m., but were only occasionally intrusive, when in the field yards away. The local walks are either stiled (2 people with 5 dogs - no way), or across newly harrowed earth - nope - will wait till that gets trampled, thanks. But the weather was so hot and sunny, it did not matter as the dogs could not go far even in the evening cool. For this site to be at its best you have to choose the season and the weather. But if you get it right, it is lovely! Would happily go again, but only after a dry spell, certainly not just after anything like the dreadful floods they had earlier in the year.

Not what we expected

After reading the caravan hand book, really fanced this site, was very disapointed on arrival, site unkept, ( over grown field) 2 caravans had been sited a long time, with people using them. Owners not on site, but a house next to the field was having work done, noise on the Saturday was very bad. The field had suffered from the heavy rains, but we did feel it was lacking in TLC. The owner said plenty of walks (we have dogs) no way marked paths near by and every thing very over grown where she said we could go. Will not be visiting again.
