Ease of arrival/welcome

Too many units

Booked in for 12 night at the start of the year and so was extremely disappointed when we turned up and there were nine (9) occupied units on the site already. This is the reason for only one tick for ease of arrival/welcome.

This is a beautiful site with loads of room but with all these extra units on the site the choice of where to pitch was very limited. And by the Tuesday there were eleven (11) occupied units on the site!!!!

By the weekend this was down to 5 but there was also one unoccupied unit that was taking up one of the prime locations. This unit was not occupied for the rest of the time we were there - there are vans stored on the farm so why this one was not moved whilst not being used is a mystery.

Facilities consist of one toilet and one shower but this is nowhere near enough when you have that many people on the site - and they are starting to look a little tired.

The site's own website states that there is free wifi but this is very slow and only available if you are near to the farm building. Virtually no mobile signal for either EE (surprise) or 3 and only slight signal for O2. TV signal is also flaky.

Whilst the site is over 2 acres your choice of pitch is limited by the positioning of the EHUs and whilst we were told there were extension leads stored in the barn, these were all being used by the extra vans already on the site, again severely restricting where we could pitch. Only one fresh water tap for the whole site.

A friendly farm dog is great but when they start coming into your awning unannounced and leaving 'messages' around the field that are not cleared up, it sets a poor example for those who do have dogs of their own.

I would agree with other reviewers and think that this site has the potential to be a great one but for us it was spoiled by the owner allowing far too many vans on the site and the knock on effect that this has on the facilities and availability of pitches - we will not be returning.
