Well situated CL

This is a well maintained small site in an attractive and interesting area, with a welcoming and helpful owner. Facilities - Easy to use water & waste disposal. Picnic bench beside the dustbins, but not always within reach of the wifi signal. The site is mostly flat. Wi Fi - the signal is weak and intermittent. It can disappear for many hours at a time. You have to stand in the corner of the site next to the dustbins. Handy to have for occasional simple tasks, but not reliable, and you can get very wet when it rains, or find it hard to see the screen if the sun shines! Virgin mobile signal is also weak and fluctuates. Views - on one side is the entrance from the farm track, with dustbins and farm equipment. Opposite is a hedge with partial views across fields pointing towards the coast, which is about half a mile away. A hedge and trees separate the site from the farm house and opposite to that is a wire fence separating the site from a field, with houses beyond. It is a rural setting, but I'm not sure I would say there are great views and you would need rear view windows or a caravan mover to be able to see the rural views from the van on most pitches. Pitch 1 has good views of the dustbins, water taps, hedge and an oak tree, which is popular with birds, including a greater spotted woodpecker and nuthatch. 18 species of birds were seen in early May. 0.5 acres - Only two thirds of this area contains the pitches, making it feel a bit crowded if the site is full of large rigs or vans are parked side ways.There is a telegraph pole in the middle of the unused third and this area also seems to be used as an overflow car park for the farm. The electricity supply is good. Dogs - 2 vans had dogs, with one being allowed to roam and defecate freely. It chose the area around our van! Another dog, possibly belonging to the farm, also roamed freely. Watch where you put your feet! Path to beach - access to the path is through a gate in the corner of the site. It begins by following a path also taken by young cows, so it was rutted and muddy. It then passes through a muddy farmyard, across fields with good rural views and plenty of spring flowers, and down a steep path through an oak wood (with plants growing on the path in places, even though it was early in the season). It then reaches the lane / road, which runs alongside a small attractive river towards Cwm Tydu, where there is a cafe, pleasant beach and great rock formations. It was an attractive but strenuous walk back up the hill. Allow plenty of time. Access - the entrances off the lane onto the narrow farm track and then a few minutes later off the track into the site are wide, but the narrow track and lane makes a 90 deg turn challenging for large rigs. We watched one driver uncouple and complete the manoeuvre using their caravan mover. Our Sterling 530 coped, due to an experienced driver.
