VERY DISAPPOINTING

We’ve just had 9 nights at this site and were grateful to leave. This site is in the centre of woodland. The single track road to the site is long, full of potholes with insufficient passing places which are used for the fishermen to park their vehicles! We had our hearts in our mouths dreading any oncoming vehicle. Because it is solid woodland little to no sunlight manages to come through so sitting outside in the sun on the majority of pitches is pointless. The majority of pitches are under the trees and when the rain comes as it so often does in Cumbria it forces the trees to drop their leaves and branches onto the caravan. The site is very hilly and the pitches are located in various little bays. Having said all that the site wardens were pleasant and the facilities clean. Would I go back or recommend this site. NO

This is our "go to" local site. Well laid out and extremely friendly staff. It's quite clearly described on the club site as being in National Trust woodland, so you should realise that there will be lots of trees. The river Kent running alongside is a lovely bonus. I'd give it 100% for a relaxing stay.

We've enjoyed several stays on this site, travelling across from Ireland. We're looking forward to our return trip next month. It IS in a forest so folks should expect trees and shade - I think this is part of iits charm. We've previously visited in early May when the wild flowers, including bluebells and wild garlic are in abundance and make the area very pleasant and peaceful. Lovely walk to the local farm shop for breakie and The Strictland Arms is a nice uphill stroll for a pint and some nice food in the evening. Even easier on the way back as it's downhill all the way! Embrace what this site has got to offer but if you don't like trees and woodland, maybe it's not for you.....
