This site is among the most expensive on the network, and certainly has some of the best, spotlessly clean toilet blocks we have ever seen. The views from the pitches that are not surrounded by extensive hedging are simply stunning. However, the roadway round the site is very narrow, and many of the grass pitches are virtually inaccessible without a mover as they are in small, sloping, hedged enclosures. We did not use the bar, restaurant or pool, so cannot comment, but the well-stocked shop on site is very useful. There is very little peace and quiet on this site during the day as the wardens are constantly grass cutting, strimming and hedge trimming. On one occasion, I was suffering from a migraine, and the wardens began cutting the area immediately behind and above our caravan, less than eight feet away. There was no friendly word to warn us. So why didn’t we speak to them? Well, on our second day my wife returned from the office on the verge of tears having been given a thinly-veiled telling off by the warden on duty for not exactly following the procedure for moving pitch. We had checked the day before, and had been given the impression that we could simply move to a more suitable pitch and let the office know, however ‘with all due respect’ - and at some length - this was not right. So we weren’t keen to interact with them again. In fact, I’m sad to say that the wardens were the least friendly and hospitable we have ever encountered on a Club site, which made us feel uncomfortable the whole week. At times we felt we were in the way of the grounds maintenance programme. We love the area, but we won’t be returning to Hillhead.
