Great location, but poor pitches and lack of choice over pitch. Avoid on race days!
We arrived at the site on a Monday and hadn't realised that the Eater race was due to happen on the Thursday. We had booked for a week and despite the site being pretty empty we were offered a choice of 4 pitches.
There were pitches with cones on which were apparently reserved for units that arrived later and stayed for just a couple of nights. We also noted smaller units being allocated bigger pitches that we had not been allowed to use.
We asked for a larger pitch but were told that our pitch was a 7.5m pitch so was suitable for our 7,5m motorhome. The back of motorhome was against hedge and the front was over the road and we were unable to access the bike rack on the rear of the motorhome. The distance between the front of our pitch and the vehicle opposite was extremely tight and must have challenged the 3m fire break rule. This narrowness of the road on a bend had clearly posed a challenge to campers as the grass was churned up and chained off around the roadway.
All of this was a shame as this site is a fabulous location for campers with dogs and the town and supermarkets are really close by. The disabled facilities are poor as the floor in the shower room is uneven and doesn't drain well.
