This was our first weekend in our new van and just wanted somewhere not too far from home to try everything out etc. What a lovely first weekend we had! Met at the reception by Mr Pope and shown to the site and the water, electric etc. Lovely hard standing spot with lovely views across the fields. It was bonfire night and there were a lot of fireworks going off at a display at nearby Wicksteed Park, but our greyhound isn't bothered by them so all was fine! Mrs Pope had remembered I had said I would like to meet the resident alpacas and donkeys and called for me the next morning so I could go and help feed them! Spent a lovely time feeding them in the wintery sunshine. Mr and Mrs Pope are such nice people and found them very kind and great to chat to and we're kind enough to take photos of me with the animals A really nice CL site with the added bonus of the animals! We were only 50 minutes from home but the relaxing weekend did us both good. I have a feeling this could become a favourite little hideaway for us when we want to escape for some peace and quiet. Just as we were going home we watched a Red Kite for ages swooping over the fields. We will definitely be back in the spring!
