Some very poor all weather pitches

We stayed recently. It had been raining the previous day and was raining the morning we arrived. Whist it is evident that some work has been done to put new all weather pitches in, some of the cul-de-sacs were awful. The one we had to go on was a quagmire, the mud literally running over the stones. Not impressed at all.  To make matters worse quite a number of members ignoring signs not to go on the grass pitches which were obviously not in use just drove their car and caravan onto them to try and turn around. One clot got stuck and had to be hauled off by another members Landrover. He seemed to think it was funny. Not funny for us when to make matters worse the warden duly cordoned the whole lot off using foul rusty metal stakes with horrible plastic tape which made a horrible noise in the wind......he put the tape right in front of our awning where we were actually sitting at the time and seemed to think my wife had been the cause of several deep ruts which were going to need repair. He was less than pleasant to her when my wife complained. Not good. We have been going to Carsington on and off over the years, but it feels tired now and needs a lot more work in my opinion to bring it up to standard.
