Good for families

Not as good this year

This is our fifth visit, we have loved the site over the years but this year we were disappointed by some bits. Positives first, great location, easy transport links, pool, the site is well maintained, the toilet and shower blocks are well looked after and the place feels really loved. there are some great pitches Negatives. Some pitches are less defined by hedges and there seemed to be a lot of less considerate people this year. Made some of the pitches feel really cramped. The family next to us were quite drunk and loud and we spent several hours listening to them with our kids unable to sleep. Now I appreciate that it's not up to the site wardens to manage other people's kids. We have two and they are our responsibility. But to give a couple of examples. On the first day, our 10 year, was cycling round the site, following the one way system and had been threatened to not go fast. We do a lot of cycling, he is very sensible. He came back to us sobbing his heart out. A group of teenagers ragging it round the site in the wrong direction had swerved round onto the gravel to avoid the car coming towards them, one couldn't stop and rammed straight into my son who had been cycling in the right direction following the car. They then started shouting at my son saying he was a stupid idiot and swearing at him. All I can say is what a bunch of bullies. They were doing some idiotic cycling, going too fast and not in the direction of traffic! We went for a walk with our son and tried having a word with the kid after it happened but it was pointless. There seemed to be loads of early teens just racing round the site too fast, not following the one way system and being generally loud. They continued cycling at dusk with no lights either. We also had problems one nights with kids knocking at the caravan windows and running away, the site did have security this year, so we mentioned it to them. Seemed to be a lot of loose dogs about too, or dogs on really long leads that ended up in other people's pitches. Plus a few loose around pitches that kept popping through the hedges, not all seemed to be considerate owners about picking up after dogs and dogs just going anywhere. Know dogs need to do their business, but do they have to be taken for a walk to have a poo outside our pitch? Oh and I'm not a dog hater by the way! Such a shame as we have had so many great years here. We ended spending most the time off site this time, sadly think we may have a break next year 🙁
