Go before its spoiled….

This is a beautiful peaceful site with incredible views over the Welland Valley. We had 2 nights here last week. I agree with other reviews that the nearby barking dogs are disturbing-they seem to be shut into a building at the nearby farm and bark all day. It’s a pity there are not any walks direct from the site, but you can forgive it that because the views are amazing…. For now. We walked for about a mile down the road (on the verges to join the Jurassic Way trail which was lovely. Unfortunately we noticed the site has applied for planning permission to install 9 glamping bell tents on this CL, with the CL spaces being relegated to the back 5 spaces near the tall hedge right by the road. Those spaces are often shaded and the road noise in not inconsiderable. I for one would not fancy being sited there looking at the 9 bell tents in front of us and the valley beyond that. I understand why landowners keep putting up these tents, its easy money once they are up and going, but I do wonder if they are bit of a current trend that might die once sunny Europe opens up again. Sadly I wont be coming again if these things get installed.

We recently visited this site and it is wonderful. The toilet and shower block in the stables are a welcome addition since our last visit.

I didn't notice the planning permission when we were there over half term week but I concur fully with your remarks about views and road noise. Presumably when the pods are erected they will lose their Cl status.

My only real gripe was the lack of recycling.
