Nice site but 2 .....

We are the other couple mentioned in Oakterrace's review. On approaching the site we were coincidently followed in by the owner who then directed us to the (in our opinion) very uneven pitch. When booking we had checked that it would be ok for our son, daughter inlaw and grandson could sleep in the awning for 2 of our 7 night stay. When we commented that the ground was very uneven in places the owner said "oh they will be ok !" . He then left us to get set up. After a good half hour of trying to get level with the aid of 2 of those large yellow plastic ramps and wooden blocks and with a by now smelly clutch I gave up and sited our single axle van about 5 metres in front of the pitch with the aim of moving onto a better pitch next day as we had established with neighbours that they were leaving next morning. I should add that we are regular ralliers and often site in uneven fields and are not just used to "tennis court ground". Late in the day the owner came across and expressed his dissatisfaction but after a discussion he reluctantly agreed we could stay put just for one night as long as we moved next morning. He also added that he had no problems when siting his own caravan on that pitch and his caravan was a big one. We duly moved next morning but when our friends joined us later he said they would have to go on that pitch. This they did and by staying close to us with their small 2 birth were able with effort to get level. During our stay we also spoke to another couple who had been directed to that pitch prior to our arrival and who had refused it. In summary I would say that in my opinion certain outfits can get level on that pitch but if you had a mid to large van and wanted a full awning up then you would struggle to get a "good" setup. We marked the peace and tranquillity down slightly purely because on 3 of our 7 nights there was significant noise and some swearing from the commercial site just up the road. However it did not go on after 12 pm and was of course not the fault of our site owner.
