Toilet washing out
The water pipe to wash out the toilet is to low so the pipe kinks when you try to fill up the cassette with clean water
Needs the cold water pipe cutting shorter as it comes down so flexi pipe doesn’t kink

WI FI
Site and staff excellent no complaints will return.
Site WIFI awfull daily rate to expensive and no option for longer term use not less than 7days, would suggest 3day option.The signal strength is awfull and varies between fair or no service strength at all. Also my smart phone kept being disconnected and most the time site wifi was indicated as unsecure connection.
Was on site during the second weekend storm and some of the grass areas adjacent to hard standings suffered ruts but this is unfortunately a result of caravans beiing reversed in tight spaces of the accesss roads. Unless the hardsatndings are splayed out on the access from the road cant see any way to avoid this issue in wet weather.
Birthday break
We arrived on a lovely day to be greeted by a very friendly warden who explained where everything was. We found a nice pitch bit waterlogged but ok. We were there when storm Ciara hit but didn’t trouble us.
Facilities were absolutely spotless a credit to the wardens. Lovely dog walk on site but was a tad muddy. Lovely man warden went round picking bits up after the wind we had waved out to people as he drove past and no bother to stop and chat. Easy walk into the town and most cafes dog friendly. Try Victoria’s for food really good. We had a lovely stay and will be back
In the eye of the storm!
This normally quiet, relaxing site was transformed on the arrival of storm Ciara! The warden was vigilant during the storm, checking around the site. Despite this we had a mostly enjoyable and relaxing stay. The facilities were very clean, as we have grown to expect from other club sites. Yes, some of the pitches were troublesome to access for longer vehicles, partly due to the very wet conditions which meant grass was churned up in places. Service users need to be sensible and access pitches as intended, not driving over grass that should not be used as access because they cannot reverse successfully! Staff were, as on all of our previous stays on club sites, polite and efficient.
Winter Break
Lovely site, convenient to walk in to Moreton. Have been many times and will go again. However it's very disappointing that so many caravan and moterhomers have no understanding to keep off the grass. The grass has many ruts where this has happened. If wardens were to mount a large notice ' Keep off the Grass ' it might help.
Also, pitches would benefit from a gravelled run in, as currently it is almost impossible to reverse onto pitch without using the grass.

Getting tired
This is a site we have used on many occasions and now we store our van nearby it will always be one on our choices for a short break.
On first arrival, entering the site office I thought there had been a burglary - nothing at all on the shelves and only some milk in the fridge. Our last visit was in late October and we were met with the same scene, the wardens then told us they had just taken over and had not had time to re stock (I must admit, I was unaware that the wardens stock the shop from their own pockets and hope to make a profit by sales).This may also be the case on this occasion so I will only state this as an observation as I did not have a conversation with the current wardens).
I agree with comments from others ref. state of pitches and ignorant/impatient and maybe incapable drivers running across grass and verges. Many of the pitches are small and hardly big enough for van car and awning. The site has lots of vegetation, trees and bushes and in winter is usually very damp so this was expected on this latest visit - Jan 2020..
The wardens do a great job of keeping the toilet blocks clean and these also seem to be respected by the members.
I do wonder if the new Glamping pods are taking the resource and the finance from the site although again I do not know how these are run/financed so will not make assumptions.
We will continue to use the site but it will not be our first choice in the area until the Club helps the wardens create a top notch site, this will also give them more pride and make their job more enjoyable. I am normally very positive and complimentary but on this occasion I have to be honest and leave an overall negative review.
Nice location but needs attention - will not return in the near future.
Stayed Monday to Thursday. Visited may times but will now not return again until the site has had some loving care. Pitches require attention, most are looking tired. Hard standing is compacted and lack definition many have weeds and grass growing through the compacted stone. For me the site is over populated with small pitches possibly because this is such a popular location. Satisfying the needs of members and maximising the revenue of the club. Roads and paths were muddy due to many users having driven across the grass whilst entering or exiting the small pitches. Facilities were spotless and well maintained. Staff were as always fantastic and friendly. They also seemed frustrated by the condition of the site.
Finally the Wifi reception as poor as it can get. I could detect the signal but it wasn't strong enough to log in. This despite a booster point less than 25 metres away from my pitch. Not acceptable for what we pay!
Still A Good Site.
We haven't been here since 2018, but enjoyed the site as much as ever. Location for the town is excellent, toilet blocks always clean and well maintained, and the wardens extremely helpful and friendly.
The only two negatives we found was the 'tired' appearance of the pitches, they desperately need sprucing up,when we were chattng to the wardens they told us as they've been putting their concerns in to senior management at every possible opportunity. The second issue was down totally to inconsiderate Caravanners/Motorhomers who'd been driving across the grass to pitch up rather than reverse park. -- Just Unbelievable!!!
---We're definitely returning again later this year/
Nice location, filthy pitch, surrounded by Dog Pooh, pitches need work
Our first visit didn't go well.
Arrived in the dark, joined our friends.
The next morning we woke to find our pitch had no less than 11 piles of Dog mess around it and on it.
Consequently we had trod it into our ground sheet etc on the awning.
Not very happy.
Pitches are tired, need work,. Roads have random spots of slippery mud on them.
Shower block nice and warm and clean.
Wardens very quiet
Not a brilliant experience.
I'm afraid we won't return.
