Fantastic site, very peaceful, pristeen clean, extra large pitches. Electricity and water on pitch. Black and grey water dumping areas. Dog friendly, cannot find a fault. Hosts are particularly friendly and very pleasant, nothing too much trouble and bread delivered right to your pitch on a morning if ordered before 7pm on an evening. what more could anyone wish for. 10 out of 10 for us.

perfect site big pitches, simple food at great prices, friendly staff. so easy to visit other places from here as you don’t have to worry about manovering your van as pitches so big.

We had yet another delightful stay at this campsite in May this year. As usual a warm welcome upon our arrival and the pitches are very generous in size and well maintained. The toilets and showers are kept very clean and there is always plenty of hot water. No doubt the food/menu will return to it's normal standard once the new facilities for bar/restaurant and office are completed. That having been said they have continued to provide food and drink in temporary facilities in what must have been very difficult circumstances with the reagrds to the weather both hot and cold. This is one of our favourite campsites and will remain so with many more visits planned in the future.See you again in 2024!!

This is a fantastic campsite. The owners are very friendly and helpful and will meet you on arrival and take you around the site and show you all the facilities. The heated facility block is new and very clean and comfortable with lots of hot water. You chose your own pitch all pitches are huge and level. The campsite is well kept and very smart and tidy. The bar and restaurant are run by the owners. The food was freshly made and excellent quality at a reasonable price. DVDs and books are available to borrow.
In conclusion I wound not hesitate to recommend this caravan site and we will most certainly return here.

We stayed in September 2023, and shhhhh! it’s a gem of a site. Friendly professional owner, the sanitaire is cleaner than an operating theatre. Town is easy walk or cycle, the Vival supermarket is surprisingly well stocked. Meals at site are good, friendly bar and Meteor beer is excellent. Good size pitches, can make no recommendations. If Carlsberg did campsites…

We arrived at this lovely site without having made a reservation. We were made to feel very welcome, and the owner gave us a personal guided tour of the site. The pitches are very large, and most are surrounded by a tree hedge. The majority of pitches have water and electricity for your own use. We had a lovely alfresco meal at the small restaurant too, and we also eat the takeaway pizza, which was delicious. We stayed for 6 nights in September, and would certainly use this site again.

Easy to find, large pitches, and well turned out reception and wash block. Good access to a mixture of interesting places to visit. We will be back.

A well cared for site and as already said - enormous pitches, (some a little sloping) with hookup and water very close. Great sanitary block with lots of hot water, even for the washing up sinks! Friendly owner who provides a variety of cooked meals most days, which sounded lovely! Pity we were only able to stop a couple of nights, will return if possible!

Nice friendly campsite with good walking for dogs. Generous sized pitches which are level and services close to pitch. Clean toilet and shower facilities which are modern and heated. Food on site very good.
