We booked this site despite warnings about "strange" toilet facilities and noise from the local trains and quarry. The site itself is very picturesque and has an interesting undulating landscape which makes you feel that you are on a more intimate site than one which holds 93 units. We had no problems with the toilets, which in fact are to be applauded for their ecologically friendly operation. The showers too were more than adequate and kept clean by the wardens. The site is well maintained and the wardens, as you would expect on a CC site, were more than helpful. The location is ideal for touring in the area and, should you desire an alternative to the car or not wish to "decamp" your motorhome, there is a very useful rail station and bus stops very nearby. There is also an excellent, well stocked, reasonably priced, local Co-op within walking distance which, strangely, is not mentioned in the site leaflet. The wildlife is abundant and we had the delight of a family of four deer passing the rear of our caravan early one morning. Two problems. Whilst we were there the weather was not good and many of the pitches, the vast majority of which are grass, were waterlogged....indeed we could not move from our caravan without wearing wellington boots. It has to be said, however, that the rain had been heavy and, despite this, the ground remained relatively firm and we had no problem pulling off the site after five days of wet. The other problem was the very noisy road at the rear of where we pitched in The Warren. From as early as 5.00am there were heavy lorries, motorbikes and cars constantly passing close to us. This problem could be avoided by pitching elsewhere on the site....although this may give you problems with noise from trains or the quarry, neither of which we experienced. I would be happy to stay at Crossways again but would keep my eye on the long range weather forecast and would take more time selecting a quieter pitch.
