Disrespectful staff, noise, uneven pitches and broken facilities

This is the largest club site we have stayed at having stayed at at least a dozen others. It was so big it almost felt more like a haven holiday park than a peaceful club site we are used to. The first part of site felt a bit cramped when we drove through it We pitched on the newer extended site. Our first pitch up attempt failed due to a steep incline on the pitch and the electric supply being too far away for our 25m cable. The second pitch we tried also had a significant pitch both front to back and side to side, so much so I had to use my wheel wedges to raise the jockey wheel higher. These seemed to be a theme on all of the pitches on this part of site which seemed odd as they are all relatively new so not sure why they haven’t been made level. I must stress that this next part only applies to 2 members of the staff - I was subject to what felt like victimisation. I have never had an issue driving on any club site before but some of the staff seem to think that anything more than getting out to push your car is over the 5 mile speed limit and they would chase you down or radio across site to tell you so in a manner that was totally disrespectful and even threatening. This partly lead to us leaving site early. And it wasn’t just me, I witnessed other members and even children being chastised for trivial things and I have read other reviews where people have had issues. On one occasion, a member of staff was radioed on reception to speak to us and they clearly seemed uncomfortable doing so which suggests some of them know there are some poor attitudes going on. The noise from the adjacent construction site was still ongoing and was obtrusive during the day even though we were pitched a good distance away (we had been warned about it on arrival). Finally, a toilet seat was broken which resulted in it nipping across the back of my 5 year olds legs when she used it. This was so bad it broke the skin and has a large bruise. We felt the defect was obvious and should have been proactively identified and fixed before the injury occurred. All of that said, this wasn’t a bad site but our holiday was marred by too many issues. Despite its great location, we wouldn’t go back here.
