Good for families

Great stay but lacking for the children

This was our second time staying at this site, same time last year so was easy to compare. This year the site was a lot more quiet than when we stayed the previous year and had the choice of pitches. We were able to pitch up by the small park which meant I was happier letting my children go over to the park together. Unfortunately the park on the main side had gone down hill with a distinct lack of attention to its maintenance and upkeep. There were items missing which I can only assume had broken and never been replaced. I was aware from my brother who had stayed later in the year that there was a second play park on the other side which was new and much larger from photos I had seen. I had asked when we arrived whether we could walk onto the second side to use the park which was closed to stay on, but we were told it was closed. I think the site needs to invest in the play park on the main side if they close the other side during the quieter months. There were plenty of children running around and cycling, turning up to use the play park and walking away disappointed. I don’t think the site should rely on Nene Park to supply the better play parks which are walking distance but require the whole family to go. The site is good quality and clean as expected by the CAMC and this is down to the work put in by the wardens. I think the pitches need some work to upgrade them being open all year round means they are in constant use. Even a fresh batch of shingle on top to freshen it all up. We will return as it’s a handy site only being 45minutes away. I hope the review about the park is taken notice of by the CAMC and the park is upgraded for next year. If anyone likes a good Chinese, I’d recommend Tasty House in Orton Waterville which is only 2 minute drive from the site, generous portions of meat and veg in the dishes and really tasty.
