Beguiling.....
As I say in my title this site is beguiling and I think that it has certainly meant that some reviewers have been glamoured by its beauty and failed to see it's few faults. The view from this site is, as others have said, very nice but that's not a factor this traveler takes in to account, knowing full well that the weather plays a big part in whether you even get to see the view! What I look for is a clean site and good facilities, Bunree certainly ticks the box on the former but not so much on the latter. I had noticed that this was a site of early risers and it didn't take me long to figure out why; it's to make sure you get to the showers (and toilets) before the queue! There is a total of 12 showers to cater for up to 99 pitches; this is simply not enough. The toilet provision of just 13 stalls for anything up to and above 198 people means that there is a lot of pressure on these facilities when the site is busy. The down side is that in the morning the place smells like the elephant enclosure at Edinburgh Zoo. The answer? A bit more investment and another toilet/shower block. Let's stop relying on the picturesque outlook and improve the infrastructure. Another massive let down is the internet connection. It is woeful. Connection is sporadic and constantly drops meaning that your peaceful, restful break becomes fractious when trying to pick up mail or connect with family and friends via social media amongst other things. Would I recommend this site? Yes, but with a couple of caveats as advised herein.
