 Super site, good value, £13 a night with EHU in August. Lovely toilet block, very clean and plenty of hot water. Good washing up facilities and laundry room. Site was very busy while we were there, but everyone was very friendly, almost a party atmosphere.

Some super NT properties nearby, and location is great being just 5 miles or so from M40. This was our second visit, and I know we will go again next year. Site owner and warden very friendly and helpful.

 Absolutely lovely site, so clean and well kept, well laid out with plenty of space for each pitch. Toilets and showers lovely. Very clean. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location for the surrounding area with lots of information available for things to do. All in all a great place to stay, very highly recommended. Lovely pub serving great food only 150 yards down the road, always a bonus ! Thats all folks.

Reviewer: Deezyone 2 reviews from this member

 Just back from a weekend stay, nice tidy well maintained site, comprising of two fields, one for caravans and the other grass pitches for tents. The facilities were always clean and in good repair, these consisting of 3 showers (shared by male and female), 3 toilets in the ladies, (not sure what was in the males) washing-up facility and laundry room.

Down side, play area not up to much, hence 'bored child' there didn't appear to be any other children on the site.

The facilities were located in the caravan field so a bit inconvenient as we had children with us and this meant walking back and forward quite a bit, really could do with at least a couple of toilets in the tent field.

Would recommend you take supplies with you as although there is a Tesco's quite near its still a drive out, and there's not a lot else that we could find.

As previously mentioned the chip van calls Friday evening which was much appreciated after arriving and putting up our tent we really didn't feel like cooking. We were told there is a pub local that does food and a Chinese that will deliver if you know what you want and can find the telephone number (maybe this could be noted in the information area, we didn't see it)

We got the impression that this site was used for one night stays quite a lot for people passing through on their way else where.

We would stay again but probably not with the children.

 We have just spent a very pleasant weekend at this site and felt compelled to leave a review for you. The whole visit was excellent from the phone call made a couple of days beforehand which was answered by a very friendly voice, followed by the nice welcome from the owner on arrival (even though we arrived at 8pm Friday evening).

The whole site is well set out over 3 area's, all flat with both gravel & grass with electric hook up everywhere.

The toilets / showers /wash up are all clean, modern and fully working.

The over riding special thing for us was the fully fenced and gates dog exercise area that forced all us dog owners to us it therefore not harassing other patrons with our dogs.

Lastly it is very reasonably prices so well worth a visit.

 Loved it! The staff were friendly (it was our first time out in a caravan and we had help reversing) and the facilities were spotlessly clean. Lovely warm showers and sparkling toilets.

We were in the rally field near to the dog exercising field so we had tons of space which suited us, our dogs and our eight year old.

The Friday night fish and chip van was fab.

Liked it so much I am going to ring up and book again tomorrow!

Reviewer: Bernards74 1 review from this member

 We stayed at this site for 3 nights on our way down south as it was close to the motorway to carry on our journey.

We were shown to a pitch by a really friendly man who told us where everything was.

The site was lovely and the toilet block very nice too.

There are a lot of sited caravans there and residents that must spend a lot of time there.

I felt that this site was not very child friendly. This might not be the case in the big field near the play area but it was where we stayed on the other side of the site. Children were not allowed to go to the toilet on their own unless they were over 12! My 10 year old son went whilst we were unpacking and was asked where his parents where by 3 different people. I have stayed at plenty of sites in the last few years, all child friendly but on this site children were not allowed to ride their bikes.

I will not be returning which is a shame because it is a really nice site in a nice area.

Reviewer: Harrytabby 1 review from this member

 We arrived on a hot Friday evening to be greeted by a very friendly gentleman who showed us to our tent pitches (2 family tents as we were camping with friends). We offered to pay before pitching up but got told pay later, no rush. We were allocated large flat grass pitches close to the children's play area (as requested) where our 4 children aged 3, 4, 5 and 6 ran off to have a great time. There is a great sand pit, toddler and normal swing, 2 climbing frames and a slide. A few strides away was a cold tap which was perfect on a hot summer evening. The facilities are great and very close by, hot water in the enclosed wash up room, chest freezer for ice blocks and clothes laundry room. The toilets were clean and bright (I only tested out the ladies!) with a free plug socket for hair straighter etc. There were several showers with a fold out seat and plenty of free hot water. Queuing was not an issue for the showers. The added bonus on this site was the 7. 30pm Friday night fish and chip van with lovely chips. And an hour later followed the ice cream van. There are roads on 2 sides of the site one more of a main road than the other but we had no issues with traffic noise. Perfect site, perfect weather, fantastic price (£11 per night) Highly recommend it to anyone. Will definitely return again and so would our friends.

 I felt I should leave a review for anyone planning to come to this site with a tent.

Firstly, the site is lovely - its very well kept and clean.

The facilities were 2 shared showers, separate mens and ladies toilets, a laundry room with one chest freezer (which you could use at your own risk) and three washing up sinks.

The children's play area was actually quite nice although a little old. Its in a secluded area with some shade and a picnic bench for parents to sit and watch. It's got a sandpit, 2 swings (one of which is a baby swing) and two climbing frames (one with a slide).

Prices were really reasonable - £13 for a night with electric is very good.

There were a couple of downers though - 1. There is only one set of facilities (toilets, showers and washing up etc) and its in the other field. This means when you have smaller children it can be quite a trek to get them to the loo. One of our little ones didn't make it on a couple of occasions. I also wasn't really able to let the older one run off to go on his own because he had to cross the entry to the park and cars were constantly going round.

Oh. Bikes are not allowed on the tarmac area of the site. So I wouldn't bother taking them unless you're planning on going for a bike ride around the town or something.

The second thing is the noise of the traffic: I honestly have never stayed in such a loud location for night time traffic. I'm not sure if it was better in the caravan field but I honestly felt like we were on the road. We had arctic lorries going all night long and I did not sleep well despite being shattered.

Reviewer: Flo123 8 reviews from this member

 I have been to this site many times and left good reviews but on this visit I wasn't happy.

There is at least 30 permenant long stay caravans which people live in 24/7 on this site now and I did feel intimidated at times. You know they live on site because there awning are dirty and really old and warn out and they have there post delivered by the owner. They all know each other and when its hot drink together. On some of them pitches there is two cars to the pitch and I was always told one car per pitch or on the grass as you come in. The playground is so dated now that the climing frame has split in lots of places and is now wobberly this could break at anytime and its an accident waiting to happen. This really needs updating but the sand pit is still a big hit. I also noticed there's now some permenants moved into the field as well now which is wrong. The trees and bushes around the site are now really overgrown and this site isnt what it used to be. It used to be a lovely site for a holiday now with the permenant people living on site 24/7 its more like an estate if you know what I mean than a caravan touring site I'm afraid. I wont be staying again on this site I would rather paymore money and stay on a caravan club site.
