Adjacent to new railway being built.

Stayed May 2015. A very pretty site with lots of trees and a small river. All at first seemed perfect. Helpful friendly farmer took our cash. No mention of the railway being built. Children had a big area to play football. Settled down for the night. At 10 pm exactly, the work began. Building a railway! We hadn't even noticed it because between our arrival and bedtime, the work wasn't going on and the river semi screened it. As you can imagine, I got no sleep. If the owner had told us about it we could have made an informed decision as to whether to stay here. He didn't. This has been the first time ive been disappointed by a CL. And its the most expensive we've used. Not recommended.

Comment from The Club:

Many thanks for your review. The CL Owners have been in touch as they want to address your concerns as they make every effort to ensure people have the best possible time at their site. They are sincerely sorry to read that you were disturbed from 10pm onwards due to work on the railway. Unfortunately they are totally in the dark as to when any specific work will take place other than during normal working hours otherwise they would have informed you. The CL owners have been promised that there will generally be no work undertaken on weekends or Bank Holidays and it was a complete surprise to them that they were working on that particular night. As such they have made a very strong personal complaint to the railway team to ensure this does not happen again. If you had advised the CL owners of this problem they would have explained the situation and are really disappointed to learn this happened during your visit and impeded your enjoyment of the site.  They would have been more than happy to refund your site fee for the inconvenience and if you return they will look at offering a free night as compensation. They would like to assure visitors this is not normally a problem but if anyone does ever have any issues please do speak to them as they will always do their best to resolve.
