Potentially very nice but ruined
I usually read reviews and take very little notice until I visit a site for myself. This site has a lot of potential and the modern facilities are lovely with great walks. Without the main aspect that I shall mention shortly the site was let down by
1. Police visits on two occasions. Unsure why they visited but does make you feel uneasy
2. Grass very long and clearly has not been cut for a long time
3. Yes there are travellers. But to be fair they were very pleasant whilst our children shared the playground.
4. Dangerous metal gate to playground. 2 of my children were hit on the head by strongly sprung gate and sadly the family on the pitch adjacent had a vist to hospital because their son was badly hurt with a large cut on face due to the gate.
The largest concerning point, one of which I thought I would never encounter whilst staying at a club site was the incredibly loud music being played from 8pm until 11.10pm. At 10pm I had had enough and decided to visit the warden who I could not find. The music was so loud that I could here it across the whole site. It was coming from a group camped in tents down the far end of the site. There were guests all standing outside their units trying to find out where it was coming from. Considering this is a very large site, to hear it everywhere shows you the volume it was being played at.
As I previously mentioned, I usually take no notice of reviews and never thought I’d feel obliged to write one myself, as I sometimes feel the comments made are fussy and people should lower their expectations. But in this occasion. Wow. Never thought I’d encounter this. Will not be back to this site. Such a shame as it has potential to be lovely.
I am expecting the usual copied and pasted response from the club that says a lot without saying anything that you can see from the plethora of negative reviews about this particular site.
