Good CL with Beautiful Views
Mark kindly phoned us the day before our arrival to advise us on pitching as the ground was still soft, however as it turned out we were able to pitch the caravan easily. The last mile to the CL is narrow but with a few passing places, care is needed as surprisingly there is quite a bit of traffic at certain times of the day. Site entrance is fine and it's possible to pull off the road to open the gate, exiting does need care though.
Pitches are two strips of paving set into the grass, and we went nose in to make the most of the lovely views. Water, cdp and recycling all good and labelled, even food waste recycling. Our pitch was level and we didn't need blocks or ramps.
The village has a pub, although opening times seemed to vary, there is also a shop and takeaway Indian/chippy which was very good.
The area is lovely and we found plenty to do, NT Tredegar is a short easy drive and Abergavenny has lots of shops, cafes and supermarkets together with two lovely parks. We also visited 2 of the 3 castles in the area.
Dog owners need to be aware that there is not a pavement and we found it a bit scary walking the dog along the road. The village does however have an enclosed dog area which we used, but we did take the car to get there.
Mark came down to check everything okay and he also sells eggs which were very good. Overall a good CL and one we will return to.
