Could be a Lot Better

We have just returned from a week at High Onn. The Wardens are very helpful and very friendly. However, the site itself is looking rather sad and unkempt. Not the standard we normally expect from Caravan and Motorhome Club. Pitches are not maintained by any weeding whatsoever. It is difficult to see the edge of the pitch and where the grass is supposed to start. On our pitch we had masses of thistles, nettles and dandelions. The all looked the same. Even the seasonal pitches were overgrown around their vans and awnings. The grass was only cut in one section around the water/waste points once. We got to know another couple who use it as a regular place and they were disgusted too. For some reason the Warden often had the gates closed when you wanted to go out. If you used the dog walk up the lane, you wou ld be unable to get back in to site on your return if they were closed. They are 6' high solid wooden gates. The site itself is very peaceful apart from when the sheep escape from a neighbouring field and bleat outside your van all night. The directions given to site are spot on, and the wardens have even gone to the trouble of printing directions out of site to the main A5. No village to walk into, so visited Lichfield to see the Cathedral. (If you have a dog, you are not allowed in the cathedral. I aim to find out why, as lots of Cathedrals now allow access if you have a dog. Lincoln,Chelmsford and Bury st Edmunds to name but three. We probably will visit again at some point as it is so peaceful, and there is a lot of interesting places to visit in the area.
