Good for families

Excellent site

We have stayed here several times and always enjoy the location, the cleanliness of the shower block and the site in general, together with the facilities that are close by. The Wardens do a sterling job (but see below for a slight concern - our first and hopefully last). The double barrier has been mentioned in a previous review and I have to say that our view is that this is a good thing, given the volume of general traffic that exists back and forth to the country park. It gives us a more secure feeling. We also haven't had a problem with either the train or youngsters. Perhaps we've just tuned out the sounds? We have a dog, which we walk out to the park and back on a 1 metre lead. Returning from one (long) walk our dog pooped in the grass/small trees alongside the roadway as I approached our caravan - not on, or even near a pitch. I stopped, bagged the poop, returned to put it in the poop bin and carried on. On visiting the office a short time later I was chastised for this action, with an explanation that some owners let their dogs go anywhere - even on others' pitches. I was completely taken aback at the female warden's words and tone. I can't (even now after much reflection) understand why I should have been singled out and quite what I should have done differently. I was both embarrassed and confused by the continued stance. We are very responsible dog owners and should not be lumped in with any that aren't. Despite this, and although this has left a lingering bad taste, it won't stop us visiting again.

The club's view is that they understand accidents can happen and, providing you were not deliberately exercising your dog on site and you cleaned up, that’s all there is to it.
