A week with the grandchildren

We recently spent a few days on this great site with our grandchildren. No problems for them at all, they enjoyed the playground and meeting new friends. Two problem areas. The first is service pitch 114. We have a twin axle caravan and this pitch is literally 25 yards from the service bollard for electricity. We wanted to use an annexe on the awning and we could not place the caravan so that the awning and annexe were on the hard standing. The mains cable would not reach the caravan. Luckily a warden came past and we asked if we could encroach on the grass at the back of the pitch. Reluctantly he agreed and so we put the annexe partly on the hardstanding, partly on the grass. After 4 days when we took the awning down I was pleased to see that we had caused no damage to the grass. My advice if you have large twin axle caravan, and you chose this pitch, just be aware.Please wardens move the electricity bollard closer to the water taps for this pitch. The second problem area concerns dog owners, of which there were many on site. It seems that you now cannot be a caravaner unless you take at least two dogs with you. We have no problems with dogs, indeed we were dog owners in the past. Our problem is with the owners and their sheer laziness in the morning in opening up the awning and letting their dogs " do their business" on the grass area surrounding the pitch. We watched one couple opposite us. The two dogs proceeded to urinate in the entrance to their awning. The lady then took some water, rinsed down the wet patch and then proceeded to walk bare footed through the same area, followed by her children. On an early morning trip to the toilets I witnessed at least 4 caravan/ dog owners just letting their dogs out of the awning. These people did not even rinse down the affected area where their darling pooch had done its morning ablutions. Whilst they may not mind living in this environment, you might think that they would consider others who have to follow them. Youngsters crawling through grass that has been used as a dog toilet, is not a pleasant thought. Apart from these two instances this is a great site and one that we have visited before and will return again.
