Stayed here to attend Battle proms at Highclere- 'Downton'. The access is poorly signed and overgrown so the gateposts and CL sign are almost invisible - and quite a tight turn if you have a long outfit. The whole area has an unkempt and uncared for feel. The field is roughly mown and whilst there is plenty of room, the pitches are ranged around what appears to be an overgrown and neglected market garden field. Reception- at 2pm- appeared unmanned until someone appeared stubbing out a cigarette and said 'I hope you have cash the machine isn't working'. There was no evidence of any takeaway and ice cream was sold out. In any case, the general grubbiness of the place did not encourage a search for food. No evidence of any facilities and the loo emptying point was narrow and difficult. Some traffic noise although this did not disturb us. Perhaps the owners are new and inexperienced, or old and trying to give up but the whole place needed a makeover and some TLC- and very expensive at £15 a night!
