Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2025

Good if you like loud, noisy campsites, lots of drunk people being very loud until very late, which isn't great for a 'family' campsite. Facilities are okay, but very dirty bins over flowing no loo roll by the end of the day. Also showers constantly muddy. Not a great stay.

Large Tent - Electric Grass PitchesJul 2025

It's a really a shame as we were really happy with the site but a couple of things let it down. Toilets need to be cleaned more often, running out of toilet roll and not clean in the morning! Really disappointed with the swimming, went to book on our arrival day, Thursday, for the Sunday got told we weren't allowed as you can only book the day before at 16:00 as it wasn't fair on people that where still due to arrive for the weekend! Then when I returned on Saturday at 15:50, all of Sunday was full and they didn't understand why I had been told that but it was too late. I had to disappoint my children as we now couldn't go swimming!
