If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet stay then I would looking for an alternative site. This has to be one of the busiest, noisiest sites we have been to. We didn't enjoy our stay here, you had constant noise from the neighbouring farm, an EXTREMELY loud donkey that begins its excruciating noise from 5am onwards and regularly throughout the day. It sounded very much like it was in distress. He was taken away once so we were relieved from the noise for a day but then he was brought back. I have no issues with farm animals at all however this donkey sounded very bad, definitely something wrong there. Also, the routine of moving the bins from here to there happens nearly everyday and that soon gets very annoying when they are being banged about outside your caravan. However, the worst aspect was the tiny area given for 5 caravans on the hardstanding, all are crammed in, the area provided was ridiculous. We didn't feel comfortable here with everyone on top of one another. At full capacity there is nowhere to park vehicles next to the caravans. I can imagine the situation would be different in summer as the grass area would be open allowing more space, however definitely avoid when only the hardstanding is available. There are a couple of positive the OX Indian was very good and a laundrette close by, that is where the positives begin and end. Definitely the most unenjoyable site we have been to so far....

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations.

Regarding the donkey, while the donkey is not present every day, if you had made the CL Owner aware of the noise issue, they would have promptly addressed it by asking their neighbour to move the donkey to a different field. Please be assured that the donkey is not in any discomfort.

As for the bins, they are typically only moved on Sunday afternoons or Monday mornings for collection, or if they become full. Please be assured they would not be taken any nearer to the caravans than their normal location. We apologise if this caused any disturbance during your stay.

With respect to the hardstanding area, the CL ensures the comfort of their guests by never exceeding four caravans on these pitches, guaranteeing sufficient space. During your visit for 19 nights there were only 3 vans onsite and 4 on the remaining 6 nights, which should have provided ample room for all.

We’re sorry these concerns weren’t raised during your four-week stay, as the CL Owner would have been more than willing to address them. They value feedback and aim to make every guest’s stay enjoyable, so please do not hesitate to bring any issues to the attention of the CL Owners in the future.

We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the nearby OX Indian restaurant and the convenience of the launderette. We hope you will give the CL another chance to provide you with a more enjoyable experience next time.
