Pleasant stay
Stopped here for a few nights in half term - we knew it was half term because children kept leaving reams of toilet paper all over the floor for the poor wardens to clear up! Easy access to site. Friendly welcome from the wardens doing a good job outside supervising arrivals. It's right next to the steam railway so ideal if you like that sort of thing thought they don't start running again till 9 March. Level walk into the village along a busy road (with pavement) and there is also a footpath to fields if you turn left out of site and go under the bridge - it's not marked on my OS map but there is a sign. Dog walk on site is a decent size for early morning and evening - the fresh bark surface was almost completed. Tried the Swan Inn which was average, expensive unless you choose from the limited fixed price menu and lacking enough staff. Friendly welcome to our dog in a number of clothes shops but some shops only allow dogs in if they are carried - bit tricky with a Rottweiler even though she is petite! Choose the walk through the woods to the Tower if you can as it is a gentler slope and away from the crowds. Café at the top allows dogs.
We would have tried the pizzas that are cooked on the site on Mondays but there was a very long queue.
