We stayed for a couple of weeks for our summer break this year. The site isn't your typical row and row of caravans; which is fine for us as we don't like that (take note CC). Anyway, there are lots of pockets of vans around the site. When you arrive, the wardens show you where there are spaces available for your chosen pitch, give you map and tell you to go off and explore to find the one you wanted. It might sound odd, but considering the way the site is laid out you'd be forever reversing with your outfit to find a space.
The site has small, but sufficient toilet blocks. No Eifi or TV on the bollards and RF freeview is okay but not great on an ariel. We used our satellite dish. Mobile wise, strong O2 4G, EE had pockets of 4G mainly 3G and Three, a weak signal.
The site is on the land of an hold country house, and there is some interesting history available to read up on that the wardens keep hold of. The ground is undulating on most pitches, so take your levelling blocks with you. The ground is free draining, but when it rains hard (which we had at the end of August - typical british summer!), it pools until it drains, but we still managed to pull the van off without issues when it was. IT's also pretty sheltered as the days when there were 40+mph wind, it was hardly notable on the site, although the trees around us gave the only clue in the noise from the leaves being blown.
The site is pretty hidden as you drive to it, I found it useful to use google street view to do some research before we came.
Little park for the kids, plus a large fenced off ball area, plus access to a public footpath for dog walking or a stroll to the pub.
We'd happily return in the future.
