Dave K

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2026

This site is a mixture of seasonal caravans and touring caravans. It's quiet and dog friendly, with dog a walking area of a quarter of a mile. The pitches are fully serviced, but check if you decide to stay, and it accommodated our 7 metre long van. Now to the downside, you pay 50p for a shower and it only lasts just over 3 minutes. There are only two in a block, but the sinks have hot water and you can leave them running for ten minutes, but can't have a free five minute shower. The toilets just can't cope with demand, when I initially went into the toilets, my first impression was that the kids had deliberately blocked them with toilet paper, but after using them, I knew the truth. You have to flush before using toilet paper, then flush again at the end, and hope it's not blocked. Would I go again? Yes, if slight changes were made, free shower and a complete overhaul of the toilets.

We booked last min on an unplanned trip. Absolutely beautiful campsite! Facilities are great, very clean and organised. Good size pitch. Everyone was lovely. Really friendly and helpful. It was fairly booked up (pitches all taken around ours) but so quiet at night. 100% would recommend!
