Lovely stay, but….

Having stayed many times at Exebridge, Lakeside this holiday was somewhat disappointing. NOT I may add because of the main or relief wardens, who as always. do a superb job running and keeping the site brilliant, as always. This time though there was an incident of what I can only call vandalism by probably one spineless member who seemed not to like the very pleasant background music, so much so, that they ripped out the speaker wires in the mens toilets. How pleasant some members can be on behalf of others. Probably members who you talk to on site and they probably come across as pleasant. If you don’t like something , anything , talk to the warden and NOT upset the great proportion of members who DO enjoy the background music. For heavens sake how long do you spend in the toilets to make you carry out such a cowardly act. Note at this time there were no children on site, the majority were retirement age ‘ish. Also may I add, but personally have no proof of that another act of vandalism has been actioned,to the aerial which feeds the music system. Could it be the same person ? To my next point, it is apparent that a fair portion of the dog walk is now to become a fenced off area for up to six TENTS, is this really needed ? Perhaps other members may wish to comment, via the website, on this proposal ? This is possibly some idea conjured up by head office OR some area manager to cram a few more people on the site ? Having been on the site when it was full to capacity, this time, I had to queue on more than one occasion for a shower and W.C. Not a major problem for me but it seems to indicate the site cannot really cope with existing numbers ? but the need for more people i.e. the campers seems crazy. Money could be far better spent by converting the existing grass pitches to all weather, as was done last winter (with concealed hard standings) to make all pitches usable ALL year ?. Finally, the most unpleasant part, toilets that are left in such a disgusting condition , in both mens  AND women's in a condition I can only describe as similar to what my dogs do, but I clean up after my dogs, but on site the poor Wardens have to clean up after such disgusting members. Again its highly likely you speak to these members whilst on site. It beggars belief to me people can leave a W.C in such a state for others to walk in and find. Apart from all the above a great site great main and relief Wardens, they certainly earn their money. Perhaps if other members who were on the same site and have had similar "experiences" they may wish to comment ? But beware please create your review as a word document FIRST before filling in on line and then copy and paste on to website . You may lose all otherwise The site could be better designed ?
