Could be lovely

The person taking the bookings on telephone is not owner/managing site any longer. The photos currently uploaded do not look the same either. The Chap on the phone was lovely, we did not meet the site owner/managers but were warned they were busy during lambing season.. Very poorly signed, the signs navigate people to the trecastle equestrian centre, which is through the camp field, but also advise no parking (in the camp field). The site was full of dog poo, and the grass was quite long in places, I went around collecting it, as did not feel comfortable collecting water etc in flipflops. Realised one of the farm's dogs (cute black terrier) was popping into the field and pooping by our camp event day! Grass being long, the ground was also very uneven and we broke one of our levellers. The view is not particularly tranquil or attractive as the field adjacent is now open grounds to a newly built equestrian centre. People crossing through the camp field but also floodlights and such. The field doesn't feel very private. My husband said the chemical emptying facility was the worst he had even used, it relies on a gravity system but it didn't drain properly, so there was always faeces or toilet tissue you on top , also the water was very low pressure and there was no hose to rinse the cartridge, having to hold the cartridge up to the tap, was difficult to get it cleaned hygienicly. There was wild garlic growing which was wonderful to forage, it was quiet mostly but feel site is now an afterthought for the current (new) owners and the previous reviews aren't reflective of current situation. Was good value for money for basic facilities, which is fine, but the site was a disappointment.
