A nice site with clean and modern facilities. Our peace was constantly broken by the yapping and barking of dogs throughout the day and again at night. I awoke one morning to find dog poo in front of my van on the verge of the pitch and road. I did complain to one of the wardens who did pick it up and dispose of it. The warden said that they cannot do anything about it. My wife and I also witnessed a dog owner let there dog crap on the grass between pitches opposite our van. This was not anywhere near there own pitch and it was a pitch with a caravan with 4 young children who played outside. Owners seem to let there dogs roam on a long lead and on one occasion had to shoo a dog away which was sniffing around my van. Why do dog owners presume that others like there dogs?
It is not the dogs that are at fault it is the selfish inconsiderate owners who should take responsibility and not disrupt others peace and enjoyment, for we have paid quite a lot to be here too.
The Caravan Club needs to take control and not abrogate responsibility. As a long time member
this is an issue witnessed at many sites visited and cannot see it improving. Maybe time to find more private sites with a no dog policy.

I see my earlier comment about dangerous dogs not being allowed on club sites has gone.
You’re right, Joanie, it’s not a review of the site but another moan about dogs which should have been reported to the warden and, if necessary, to the club at the time.

If you see something report it to the warden, they do act in a responsible manner. I do not condone irresponsible dog owners, but do chill out otherwise we will have to section all sorts of areas that some like and some don't- eg
Motorhome free
Dog Free
Children free
Cadac/Bar-b-Q free
Toilet free
Enjoying life free
