A very busy speedy road

Have to say I was somewhat surprised  to phone my booking through and asked to pay for the whole week up front never before as that happened yet caravan club page says £5.00 deposit  .First visit to the site.  Only a choice of ne pitch despite people leaving later than the 12pm deadline for leaving.  We turned into the site and had another car right up the back of the caravan so no ability to reverse into the caravan pitch that was available we pulled over but the man didn't want to go past us so we ended up having to carry on past the pitches which then meant hubby had to reverse all the way back to the vacant pitch but this road is very busy traffic up and down all day till after 5 pm it seemed.  The most upsetting thing about that was although there was a speed limit set at 10mph no one enforced that or abided by it .  So people were driving past the caravan 5 caravan pitches and a further caravan pitched at a speed a lot more than the 10mph .  This site would benefit having an entrance for caravans and an entrance for the other traffic which is a lot of cars as we would certainly not return and cannot see how people can say a quiet site as that was not our experience of this site.  Friday morning woken before 9 am by gardeners contractors mowing and strumming.  It was disappointing to that my wife is disabled and needing to use mobility scooter could not access the canal path to Audlem due to a bridge with steps.  Can't comment on the facilities as we used our own on board the van.  We did use the coffee shop once and it was very nice and the homemade cakes were lovely.  We asked for leaflets for walks and they were not available .  Overall not what we were expecting very disappointed with site from the constant flow of fast moving vehicles backwards and forwards. Used the Audlem lass boat once as it only operates weekends this was the only way my wife could access Audlem apart from using our car too.  No bus service near the site either. But there is free wifi which was nice to have there was also a fair tv reception and nice having picnic benches on every pitch
