Ferry pitches are diabolical and much too noisy due to road
We booked the site so we could catch an early ferry from dover. What a horrendous and dangerous mistake. We were put on pitch 11 which is a ferry pitch by the road and behind the hedge which is next to the entrance. Firstly the pitches do not let each caravan stay hitched which would make sense for a ferry pitch. We had to do some considerable manoeuvring which wasn't fun to undo at 0500. Then we were at the back and had to go past everyone else who was going after us. And we had the noise of those few going out before us going out the gate which was through the hedge. But the massive and terminal failing of this site's ferry pitches which is totally unrecoverable is that they are next to the road which is notionally a 40 limit but from 1600 to 0200 turns into an unlimited speed rat run for every boy racer in Kent and every heavy truck going to a ferry. The noise was quite indescribable. We didn't sleep a wink and were frankly semi conscious until we got to Dover for a coffee. Our first day of holiday has been ruined by having to cancel all activity to recover sleep. If you value your sleep go somewhere else or check into a hotel. Avoid the ferry pitches
