Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesAug 2023

There was no electric nearly every day. One day, electric was off from 5pm till gone 8am. This meant I couldn't charge my electric wheelchair. The disabled shower room was not really suitable. There was no hand rails or seats at the shower. no hand towels or hand drier. Most days, the toilet rolls were wet from the extractor fan not working. The ramp had a raised pathing slab so wheelchair dug into gravel trying to ride over the slab so I couldn't use wheelchair. I had to report the disabled toilet was loose and the drop rail didn't work. They were quick to fix that. Handy man came with in a few minutes, which I give him full marks. Dogs were allowed to run freely and dog mess was around the site. Being a dog owner, that was not good.

Site's response

We were having issues with the electric coming into site, which has now been sorted. Also, we have had many disabled people stay and have never mentioned access. As for dogs, there was 1 small dog that was off their lead and the issue was swiftly addressed as we take all our camp rules seriously. Kind regards, Woodleigh team.

Lovely site
