The campsite was well maintained and the toilet and shower block was spotless. However, we wouldn’t stay again as the pitch we were put on is at the side of an extremely noisy road.

My wife and I are new to CAMC. The Host and Hostess who greeted us were amazingly helpful and patient which I particularly appreciated. The site is spotless with loads of facilities and lovely hot showers! Our fellow campers were really friendly and quiet which I also loved. We would definitely go back.

The weeds were so high they blocked the lovely views. The dog walk was totally inadequate, just a small patch of grass surrounded by weeds and a steep embankment. Too many serviced pitches all of them empty.
