a good break

We stayed on a serviced pitch at this site for 3 nights, including the weekend of the recent gales - 28th/29th March. It's very easy to find, clean, organised and while the site itself is fairly small, the pitches don't feel at all cramped. We didn't hear any motorway noise as with a couple of previous reviews but this was probably because of the awful noise from the storms which were really, really frightening. Although the approach to the site is through an industrial area, the site is situated close to the country park, canals and rivers - so there are plenty of country walks/cycle rides nearby. It was my husband's birthday so I had booked at table at The Elm Tree in Elmton which is about 20 minutes away but is definitely worth the drive because the food is great and the atmosphere warm and welcoming; a place we heartily recommend (01909 721261). Finally, the wardens; they were all really very friendly, helpful, and happy to stop for a laugh and a chat as they walked around the site. My husband didn't realise he'd left his phone in the shower block until just after the office closed, (yes, daft!) but thankfully somebody had handed it in. The wardens had stuck a poster on the door of the site office and in the shower blocks too, to the effect that a mobile had been found. We caught the off-duty warden and she was so helpful - couldn't have done more for us. She reopened the office and dug the phone out for us without any hesitation. That's the sort of thing you remember about a site and at this place, they serve it up in plenty! Well worth a visit.
