We booked in for one night only because we were visiting our daughter and nearby Clumber was full. What a stroke of luck that was! Milestone is so easy to get to it's ridiculous, and therein lies one of its strengths, a little haven with easy access to the A1 and a perfect base to either stop over or explore the whole area. Yes, Internet pictures looked inviting but the site was much much better in reality. It's immaculate, laid out perfectly with the cleanest shower blocks we've ever seen. Pitches are well laid out and easily defined, and interesting - we get tired of the regimented layout on most Caravan Club sites but this was not an issue here. We were lucky to pitch up beside the lake and saw a wide range of birds doing their thing along with folk fishing. All facilities are easy to access, in perfect working order and snipping clean. But none of these are the sites best feature. Quite simply, the staff are excellent! From start to finish they were friendly, approachable, helpful and incredibly easy to get on with. In fact, most Club sites we've visited could learn a thing or two from Milestone. We really weren't expecting an affiliated site to be as good as a club site, but found it better in most respects. Will we return! Absolutely! Would we stay for more than a night? Damn right we will! Do we recommend the site? Without any hesitation whatsoever. So, what's the catch? Well, there isn't one, although we have marked the site down slightly because, if you stop to listen, there's background noise from the A1. But this had to be pointed out to me and, do you know, it didn't spoil our enjoyment of the site one little bit. So, an unexpected but welcome gem, one we'll use again for sure. Well done that team!
