A little disappointing
Just stayed at Poplar Farm for 2 weeks. First impressions were of a compact, well-maintained site with nice riverside walks and plenty of wildlife. However, on the first night, as the site is on the corner of a T junction, we became aware of heavy traffic noise from the other side of the hedge, starting at 6.00 a.m. (Lorries from a local quarry and tractors travelling to and from the local farm.) Also, as it was a warm night and we had the windows open, this made the noise more noticeable.
Another point is that the site could do with a "dogs on lead" ruling as we had to watch dogs from neighbouring vans running loose, even trying to come into our awning and disturbing our well behaved German Shepherd. (Not the fault of the site owners but there seems to be an increasing number of caravanners who don't watch their dogs. Our previous outing with the van, the next van had 5 small dogs running loose!)
Finally, in 30+ years of caravanning, I've never been 'hustled off' a pitch by the owner sat waiting on his mower, to cut the grass, when we were 10 mins. late vacating the pitch, after the 'check out' time.
