We have just spent a 7 nights at Venn farm , this is our last holiday of the season and the one we've been looking forward to . Sadly Devon had had a lot of rain and the site grass was boggy at best ,muddy at worst . The owner had telephoned me to let me know , we had already packed wellies etc but the mud at the side of van where you pitch an awning was quite bad (putting down straw would have helped greatly ) Also at some stage sheep ( or llamas )had been taken through the site itself when we were there so we also had poo outside our door to contend with ( this also attracted flies when the sun came out ) Plus points the pitches are serviced well , the pitches are level and the pitch itself is hard standing Great walks which not in mud season would be lovely and free dog poo bags for clearing up ( obviously sheep poo doesn't count ) but no dog poo bin No views but lovely and quiet with only the noise of tawny owls by day and buzzards by night , great for star gazing as no light pollution nearby Waste and recycling well maintained and a drive over water dump for motorhomes. Launceston is well worth a visit as is Perranporth and other nearby tourist places . i'm sure the owners are lovely but I never met them , my husband did on paying but that was the limit to contact . I doubt we'd go back but fantastic value for money but all I'll remember of the site is mud and sheep poo - such a shame

Response from the Club:

Many thanks for leaving a review. The CL owner has been in touch as they work really hard to ensure people have a great time on their site and want to address your concerns. Prior to your stay the CL owner  telephoned you to offer you the opportunity to cancel as they had so much rain and to advise that the pitches were muddy. They are not a working farm and never take any animals through the CL, but during your stay unfortunately seven of their neighbours sheep did escape one night and found their way onto the site. The CL owner would have happily cleaned the mess up for you if they had been aware of this and apologise for the inconvenience this caused you. The CL owners live on the farm and as such are available to guests during their stay and visit on site every day to empty the rubbish/recycling bins and to deal with any issues so they are sorry they missed you. However, they do not call on individual guests unless they are invited, as they do not want to interrupt guests holiday. We hope this helps clear up any confusion and thank you for taking the time to review your stay.
