Pleasant stay but not a pleasant welcome
We arrived at the campsite entrance with signs 'strictly' this and 'strictly that' so we were worried arriving 15 minutes before 1pm ... Oh dear. The warden greeted us devoid of warmth or friendliness or understanding of having towed 1.5 tonne caravan 200 miles up and down Derbyshire gradients .. we weren't expecting a brass band but a hello or welcome would have been better than 'you are 15 minutes early' .. then we were made to wait that 15 minutes to be booked in. A warden stood and watched us pitch our caravan and when we finished agitatedly told us we had to line up with a white peg. So .... We did move in line with a peg and a helicopter flew over and we wondered if that was another warden with a high velocity rifle in case there were any more infringements. Luckily the facilities are immaculate better than a hotel, warm shower block, I mean hot and showers you dream about compared to some sites. Owners are obviously very proud of their site, rightly so, this is a truly fantastic site, but maybe lost sight of customer facing skills for anyone who inadvertently steps out of line. Return? Yes definitely.
