*****Warning*****
Lower Moorend View
******Warning*******
This site has so much to offer (Location, pitches and proximity to pub), however, these benefits are completely negated by the presence of a large aggressive dog.
The site consists of 5 hard standing block paved-pitches, serviced with both water and electricity. It’s located on a hill inside the grounds of a farm. Two sides of the perimeter have drystone walls, the entry and other side have five bar fencing. To gain access to the pitches you need to go through the yard in front of the house. Everything fine so far…
During our second evening on the site, the owners had gone out , but their dog was loose in the yard. This dog is medium to large dog which when approached was aggressive towards anyone who went to the gate. All 5 pitches were busy that weekend and each camper had their own dogs with them, including our own. Because the dog was loose no one could walk through the yard with their own dog without taking the risk of been confronted by the owners dog.
One of the campers phoned the owner who told them “under no circumstance should anyone go into the yard, especially with a dog”. One dog owner was returning to the site from walking his dog and had cross an adjacent field and climb over the end stone wall to get back to his motorhome.Another had to get into their car with their own dog to avoid walking across the yard. About half an hour after the phone call, a lady arrived by car and secured the errant dog inside the house.
This is clearly unacceptable and potentially dangerous to anyone who had met this dog whilst it was loose. There were a family with a young child staying in one of the static caravans, which was open to the yard where the dog was roaming. This incident compromised the safety of campers and their pets.
Looking at previous reviews, this has happened before to others during their stay.
Mixed feelings
Lower Moorend View
The views from this site are spectacular. It is located in a lovely spot, close to a pub and has nice clean ladies and gents toilet. Pitches are flat and easily accessible.
We had an issue though with dog poo. The neighbors next to us let their tethered dog have a poo on the pitch then didn't move it. On the last day, I took my own dog out at 6.30am and was greeted by the farm dog running loose and peeing up my awning. It also had a poo on the pitch right next to us. While packing away both my partner and myself stood in more poo.
Nice Views
Lower Moorend ViewThis is a lovely site with cracking views over rolling countryside. The pitches are large and flat with its own water and electric and are plenty big enough. The toilet is basic but its clean with separate ladies and gents (a word of advice though they both ran out of loo paper a day after our arrival) there is no shower. The entrance is a little tight but not overly so but be careful of the dog that lies in the drive way - he is friendly and likes a tickle and doesn't always get out of the way. We feel its a tad expensive at £24 a night but we would certainly return for a weekend.
Excellent CL - will definitely return
Lower Moorend View
First time here but definitely not the last! Stunning views, perfect for nature lovers & peace & quiet. Natalia very friendly & welcoming, very helpful. Close to 2 good pubs. Very well kept site, clean & tidy, level pitches. Lots of local walks, perfect for dogs too. Overall a fabulous site!
Still a lovely place to stay
Lower Moorend View
We stayed last year, and liked it so much we came back again. We were not disappointed. We got a warm welcome from Natalya, and enjoyed revisiting local beauty spots and discovering new places. The toilet was closed last year due to Covid restrictions, but we appreciated having it this time: very clean and well equipped, though the light sometimes went out suddenly, and needed a wave to activate it again.
