Okay,my wife and I are I have to say, "newbies" to the caravan club so we have only been to a small number of sites. However in the 2 years of touring with the caravan we have stayed here on a couple of occasions practising using the caravan and the facilities on the site. we have always been made welcome by the staff and the caravaners as well which has made this an enjoyable site to come to at all times of the year. The facilities are clean and tidy (showers and sinks etc) given the amount of use they are under, as regards to the updating from other reviews we have seen they are pretty much the same as the other sites we have seen so I'm not sure as to how much they should be updated? think I need to see the amazing facilities at the other sites to understand what the comments before are on about? anyway we were happy. Very quiet here too, didn't hear a thing at night (or day) at all. Only noise I could hear was the birds singing in the morning and a owl that decided to have a good hoot one night..and NO I'm not complaining. this was lovely. Please try the local shops in the village especially the local butchers, the meat is lovely especially on the BBQ, the hand hotel and the bistro are worth a visit in the village if you fancy someone else doing the cooking for you. Lots of nice walks everywhere especially down by the canal. ( very dog friendly as well) Back here again in May and I can't wait. Thank you for everything.
