Our stay

My husband and I stayed at Hillhead last week for 4 nights. We had a lovely view of the sea and knew it would be busy but were surprised how tightly packed the pitches were with restricted space for manoeuvring. The Wardens were very helpful on arrival although we had rung twice in advance to book a serviced pitch and it was not possible to upgrade to one as there is no waiting list - just have to see what is available on arrival.  We were very surprised to see the large number of units that were arriving and being allowed on site way before the 12 noon threshold.  We could not get into our own pitch because of a traffic jam of arriving units on the Sunday morning. The children's entertainment hour is from 7-8 which meant there was no chance of finding a table and eating in the restaurant until they had all dispersed.We gave up and had takeaway. Would be good if the children's hour is from 6-7 instead.
