A charming site

This is a completely different type of club site but still very good never the less. The wardens are extremely friendly and helpful. The reception and toilet, laundry, dishwashing is all one block. The showers are dated but extremely clean and lots of pressure and hot water. I think as it’s a manged site the club can’t do much in terms of updates? It is all hardstanding but that means your caravan or motor home will be on hardstanding while your car may be on grass on a few pitches. It is on three levels as you drive around the one way system, the first part of lower level is exactly that, all level and probably suits motor homes because of that, indeed it was mainly all motor homes on one night. After that the site roads twists and turn and heads uphill to the ‘balcony’ which is very popular and level and then past the reception/shower again to the upper level with. Some pitching area are rows, some small and more private two or three pitching areas. Here a blue non awning pitch is exactly that, space for a caravan or MH on the hardstanding. A few of the pitches are quite inclined front to back and more suitable for caravans. But it is a lovely leafy site but you will still get plenty of sunshine. We were there on the hottest days in June and there were plenty people sunbathing. No playarea for children but lots to do in the area for children. Lots to do in the surrounding area and if sitting outside a pub on a hot day drinking beer is your idea of heaven then every village has one. The approach road is single lane so arrive before 12 here and you can sort out who reverses first. A great time and will certainly return.

Why should anyone arrive before 12 o'clock?

The entrance lane is such that under no circumstance should caravans be arriving whilst others are leaving.

I think I said that dumelm, but on other sites people do arrive before 12, maybe 10 minutes even? and there is no problem as they wait on by the site office or there is a long approach road. They certainly won't block anything or those leaving. Try it here and one of you will have to reverse and one could end up reversing uphill with your caravan!
