The site is currently only taking 2 outfits as there are only 2 hard standing pitches, the rest are grass. The area set aside for the 2 pitches felt a bit cramped and we could only just about fit our caravan on the gravel, the car had to go on the grass, not ideal for the very wet weather conditions. We felt the pitch was overpriced - the shower is unavailable during winter, so it’s just one w/c - which strangely had a full length frosted glass door which we thought a bit odd! The wifi signal was very patchy and we were unable to stream anything or watch Netflix.The electricity included is up to 10 units per day, which according to their own estimation - average use for summertime! We thought this was unreasonable, who uses the same amount of electricity in the winter as in the summer?? By the first morning we had already exceeded our allocated units, even though we didn’t arrive until past 4pm the day before. After that we were constantly worrying about our usage and therefore switched over to gas combination for our heating. If you exceed your allocated units, it’s charged at 48p per unit, (I believe current domestic rates are 34p per unit).
The toilet was clean enough but on the first day there was only a tiny bit of liquid soap left in the bottle, this was all gone by the 2nd day and not replaced whilst we were there. (3 days). Nor was the hand towel which was in need of changing when we arrived. These are only small things but for the price we expected better. We couldn’t help but notice that in the mornings the site owner checks all the EHU meters, even the grass ones which are not in use. Was she was checking in case we may have plugged into one of those overnight? We couldn’t think of any other reason and it made us feel uncomfortable. We owed £1.70 approx on our departure despite partially using our own gas.
On the positive side, the site is in a very beautiful location and very peaceful.
We wont be returning though, as we have visited many other sites in beautiful locations, we just didn’t think this was good value.
