A bit hemmed in on pitch 4.

Lovely kept site with great views. A bit of road noise from the lane outside as it's one of the routes through to the huge nearby ParkDean site and a speed hump right outside the gate seems to make it worse due to the slowing down and speeding up of vehicles. Perhaps the pitches on the far side of the site would not be so bothered with this. The site is within easy access to Cowes and a hidden gem of a place called Newtown that we'd highly recommend. Our only gripe is that the owner who greeted us on arrival told us we wouldn't be bothered by a late ferry arrival on the temporary pitch next to us. He led us to believe it would be for one night. We came back to our van on pitch 4 in the afternoon to see a caravan with awning set up on the temporary pitch with a car parked next to it quite close to our van. This completely blocked access to the water tap. We spoke to the new arrivals who told us Adrian had 'kindly' allowed them to stay on this temp pitch for the next 14 days as he was fully booked! The pitch 3 the other side of us had their car parked by the caravan quite close to us too so we felt rather hemmed in and overlooked. Thankfully we only stayed a few days but wouldn't have been happy for any longer. We didn't see Adrian again so we couldn't challenge him on being a bit economical with the truth regarding the temp pitch. We can appreciate people now accepting 6 vans to try and recoup their Covid losses but the pitch spacing here does not cater for that. In fact the field had plenty of space elsewhere for the 6th van, this would be the better option.
