More attention to detail needed then could have been better

Firstly, I would like to address quite a few reviews on access to the site. I have a large caravan and large vehicle and had no issues even though we met other oncoming vehicles with a bit of forethought and planning even an moderately competent driver should be ok as long as you follow the directions from the CC Website. Its worth noting that there is 3 or 4 caravan sites up this road so it must be fine. However, that brings me onto our stay at this site. Upon arrival the we were greeted pleasantly and made our way to a pitch. As we were there for a week we chose to pay the extra for a serviced pitch. The pitch we selected was very nice and level. Its worth noting though that if you intend to use the tap on the service pitches you should bring at least 25m of hose with you to get it to reach. Our hose didn’t (even though it has on all other club sites we have been to). You could however choose to pay the extortionate prices in the onsite shop to obtain some hose. For example the hose which you can buy for 76p per metre was £2.50 per metre! And the hoselock type connectors which you can get from Wilkinsons for 50p each were £2.99 each! ?These over inflated prices should really be policed better by the CC. However, we chose not to pay the nearly £40 to get the hose and connectors especially as we had already paid the extra for a serviced pitch! I refer to previous reviews about the TV antenna points in the bollards, the 3 points we tried all failed to work so we found it best to use the van aerial. The WiFi is also a waste of money here. We were pitched close to the park and of an evening this really was not the place to be as the foul language and screaming and shouting was horrendous this went on until 10 o’clock most nights and after leaving these youths decided to use the tarmac roads on the hills as a downhill speedway. We had to address this ourselves as we had children trying to sleep and did so on numerous occasions until we kindly asked the warden to do their job and check on the site in the late afternoons and evenings. It did get a little earlier but it still wasn’t monitored particularly well. The facilities were generally ok, the showers were of good pressure and plenty of hot water, however on numerous occasions in both male and female toilets were out of soap and toilet rolls. On one occasion I went in to find the toilet cubicles covered in vomit where someone had been ill. The location was idyllic and the river shack in stoke Gabriel is a must to visit with a spot of crabbing to really relax and unwind. Despite the wardens being friendly and nice, I do feel that they have lost focus here and with 8 wardens on this site, this really shouldn’t happen as this site is below the standard that we have experienced on other club sites.
