First Trip of The Year
Late booking as the weather forecast was so good for the weekend beore Easter - a very friendly lady took my booking & was extremely helpful with directions.
We were glad we chose this site - it feels a relaxing place straight away, the access is easy to the site & to a good hardstanding pitch - I suppose it could have been a little more level & the surface is rough but they are minor comments.
Fabulous views over the 3 trout lakes & surrounding scenery - there is a wonderful huge high quality farm shop & a nice resturant for beakfasts & lunches - we found extremely friendly staff everywhere - we were made very welcome.
This is a nice area with a big choice of pubs within a couple of miles of the site - most do food - we found the Red Lion @ Sutton to be very good & The Anchor nearby on the canal side to be very tranquil, pleasant & a bit quirky - the Landlady has been there for over 45 years.
Altogether an excellent site to be revisited by us - the trout fishing on site is a big attraction for at least one of us!
The nearby road (A519) can be a bit noisy during the day but is quiet during the evening & night so it wasnt a problem for us.
The shower room for caravanners is combined with the toilet, an improvement would be to seperate the two - the room is large & it would be easy to divide it into two cubicles.
