Very noisy road but great facilities
Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2023Summary: camping is next to a national road causing lots of road noise making it hard to sleep/relax but very good facilities.
The camping area only had a thin hedge separating you and a national road, resulting in a huge amount of road noise, with the pitches lined up along this hedge. During the first night, there was also what seemed like some loud live music nearby which kept us up for a number of hours. It was very hard to sleep - however, I could have got past this with earplugs, but worse for me was that when sitting by the tent, rather than peace and nature, all I could hear and feel was cars.
The team running the site were lovely with very clean facilities and great showers - there was also plenty of them with a covered wash area. The freezer was very frosted, meaning the ice packs did not freeze properly which could require replacing.
Site's response
Thank you for your review. We can only apologise that your stay was noisy, this is very unusual as Frog Lane (the B road that runs alongside the site) is only small and normally very quiet. We can also only apologise for the 'loud noise' that you mentioned. Sadly this was completely out of our hands. There was a Truck Show happening at Stithians showground that weekend, and despite the showground being 3 miles away, the acoustics of the valley and countryside meant that somehow we were hearing some of their festivities.
Thank you for your positive comments about the staff and the facilities, we will be sure to pass them on to the cleaning and wardening teams, and we will also be sure to double check the frostiness of our communal freezer! Thanks for letting us know about that one. We sincerely hope that your positive experiences outweigh the negative ones and that you will consider camping with us again.
Best site we’ve ever stayed on
