We had a lovely weekend, great location and easy to get to lots of places. Dave who was there to greet us was so helpful gave us some great recommendations and popped in to check everything was ok. Bathrooms and washing up station clean tidy, relatively basic, but perfectly acceptable. On-site butchers sells delicious food for a BBQ and the Horsebox coffee stop is a really nice extra. We would definitely go back again.
