Bland!

This is one of the newest Club Sites on the network, and for us was in many ways rather disappointing. We only had the one night, choosing to use a free Site night voucher, as at £28 per night, way outside what we normally pay. What did we get? A very nice welcome from the Assistant Warden, especially as we arrived late in the evening, after the office had closed. No choice of pitch, as site full, but not an issue, we expected this. Very good dog walk, a large (by Club standards) field with mown walks all through and around the edges, and three poop bins. Our pitch was large enough for our small motorhome, and awning if we had used it. Hardstanding was awful, large steel slag chippings, not nice to be on for human or dog! Tiny little green strips between pitches. Views are either tree tops one way, or rows of ultra neat caravans the other way, in other words, nothing to indicate where in country you are! Facilities block is built from attractive stone and is in centre of site. It has a safe walk way through away from motor traffic, and this is lined with shrubs and dog roses, about the only attractive landscaping on the site. The entrance is made more welcoming by some lovely colourful planters, but the overall impression is grey roads, grey pitches, white vans. The road noise is mentioned, and it does sound busy at certain times of day.  Strangely, there was almost no noise on this site. Definitely not one attracting families with children, we saw no youngsters at all, and this is the peak holiday season, so again rather surprising. It is around 5 minutes drive from the town centre, which is a lovely town, with a castle, nice independent shops, Morrisons Supermarket, nice riverside walks. To us, this is an odd site. It is spotlessly clean, a credit to the Wardens, but is possibly the most sterile, uninteresting site we have stayed on, and rather expensive as well. The MH service point is badly situated, we had to drive out and then back into the site, through both barriers to empty and fill our tanks.  Not one we will return to in a hurry.
