The Adult Only site that makes campers feel like children!
My wife and I spent 5 nights at this site recently - The location is good, the site is well cared for and the serviced pitch we had was fine (£28/nt). However we feel it should not be listed on the Caravan Club site as it discriminates against caravans and exhibits a patronising and rule-driven culture that does not match true CC sites. Why? a) The caravan is sited by one of their mini tractors - every item in our wardrobe was shaken off the rail and other items disturbed - something never experienced before in travelling or on sites – ensure you walk with your caravan to observe how it is handled; b) The car has to be parked away in a car park not next to the caravan (no restrictions on camper vans); c) The 'bathrooms' tie up facilities ie someone on the loo is preventing a shower/basin from being used - far better the separate male/female facilities found on true CC sites; d) bookings are restricted to set numbers of days as opposed to the number of nights you require - if you are lucky they match; e) The wifi is not CC so had to pay for it (£10/4 days) – a disappointment having bought a year’s CC wifi. Other reviews mentioned the Red Lion pub being good value - full size main courses appeared to be £12-£19 - not cheap (there is a Toby Carvery about 7 miles away - £5.99). Would we stay again in a caravan - NO - in a camper van – possibly – provided we were not made to feel that we were intruding on their tidy site – now we know why it is adults only! (We wish we had read the reviews beforehand!)
