So having booked this site some months in advance, I and my wife, not so much our teenage son, were looking forward to it. I mean a campsite on a Royal estate, what could be better? As it turns out, lots of things can be better. Wardens were fantastic and worked tirelessly to keep the site tidy and clean, and they were a really friendly bunch. The site itself is tired and needs some serious work done to it. the WiFi is next to useless, for me that's not an issue, but for anyone with children and teenagers who need constant connection to the outside world, it is a nightmare. we also found the phone signals to be very poor. The site is surrounded by vast woodland, I joy for our dog, or it would be if the signs telling you that you walked your dog's in the forest at your own risk of them catching SCI (seasonal canine illness) that in some cases can kill your dog. there is no known cause and is active during the summer months. possibly adding this to the site information might be useful (Edit this information is in the site description. don't remember seeing this when we booked, but more than happy it is now there.),to make informed decisions if have dogs with them. the site was popular with families, so an endless din of screaming kids didn't go down well, yes I know it sounds grumpy and probably is, but I don't care. This chip Van that comes on site 3 nights a week is very good, the pizza van not much. The bus service is good and two stops out side the camp. Sadly however for all the plus points, this was not for us. and for the cost we will not be returning.
