Stayed for three nights in early August, whilst I expected the site to be busy with children it was a nightmare and I am amazed there were no accidents or nasty incidents as far as I know. Each time we arrived having been out for the day there were groups of children, some very young indeed riding their bikes on the roads around the site, many the wrong way on the one way system. It was very unnerving having to negotiate the site roads as these riders appeared to be coming from any angle at breakneck speed on and over the roads with no sense of danger. All without apparent parental supervision or control During the evenings (we were out in the day) there were large groups of children playing and hanging around the toilet block, again unsupervised by anyone. On arrival on our last evening moving very slowly to avoid the kamikaze child cyclists a very loud BANG of the side of our motorhome. On stoping and investigation I found it was caused by the large football a teenager had been kicking his pal on the other side of the road, he obviously could not be bothered to pause as we passed. Luckily no damage but a foot or so either way and the impact would have smashed through a window. Throughout our stay we saw no apparent supervision of the children I describe although of course I understand they were a minority of the children on the site but because it was so busy it seemed a total fee for all. During our visit I saw no wardens/site staff attempting to take control to prevent obvious danger to the children or ask their parents to do so either in respect of bike riding or playing around toilet blocks. Having said all that the site was well maintained with clean facilities. Its in a great location for the country park and I suppose thats the reason for so many children. It may be different at no so busy periods but anyone looking for a little sanity and peace and quite should go elsewhere. Especially at around £28 a night.
