This is a lovely site which has been created and cared for by the owners Tim and Di to very high standards. The pitches are all on hard standings with water and grey waste to each pitch. Black waste is done next to the information hut into a very clean and well ordered disposal point. The grounds to which you have access are beautifully kept and there is access from the site onto public footpaths. So why only a 4* rating. Two points to bear in mind. 1) This will only really apply to dog owners whose dogs need more than lead walking. Although there are two paddocks of good size on the owners land dogs are not allowed off lead on these and have to be walked around the perimeter. Fair enough, but it means for dogs to stretch their legs they need to be walked well off site onto public footpaths which are limited in the vicinity. 2) The hard standing seems to be made of cinder which, especially when damp, is transported into your van every time you or your pets enter. We were in a motorhome and hadn't used our awning or ground sheet as we were only staying for three nights which I appreciate didn't help but it is something to bear in mind.
