Reviews
Here’s your opportunity to tell fellow campers all about the campsites that you know and love. Whether it’s to highlight a hidden gem of a location or praise a sensational site manager, we want to hear from you!
Think of your favourite site and how well you know it. Then imagine being able to tell someone else about some of those wonderful things that make it so special! Advice on getting there, info about the pitches, the low-down on the facilities, what there is nearby to do, see and explore... it could open up a world of possibilities to fellow campers just like you.
Your reviews are important and will be valuable to the Club and Club Members alike, so why not
get writing one now?

We loved this site, it was quite small but nice and quiet. The staff were friendly. The site was kept clean and tidy. The shower block, toilets and handbasins were kept very clean as was the dishwashing facilities and the laundrette. There is a play park but this is very small. There is a lovely pub 50m down the road and the BP garage opposite the pub is well stocked. Location is excellent for sightseeing. We would definitely go back and would highly recommend this site to anyone.

The site management are very friendly and helpful. The site is well maintained and the toilet blocks are cleaned well. The site shop is small but there is a BP garage only a 100 yards away that has a combined Spa shop - it stocks almost everything !
The site is on a slope but the they provide lots of chocks etc to help you level your caravan. Spacing between units is generous.
There is a small children's play area which is suitable for under 10's. There is no dog walk although dogs are welcome - the management have their own dogs which are well behaved. There are plenty of lanes to go for a walk with your dog.
If you need any spare parts etc there is a caravan showroom /centre less than 30 minutes away just off the A38.
It's worth remembering that there is the California Country Inn just opposite the BP garage which is not too expensive and has a decent menu.
The site is a good base for exploring the area and you can get to the beach in less than 30 minutes drive. There is also a childrens farm nearby (again just off the A38) which is worth a visit if you have children. This farm also has free kennels by their car park which you can leave your dogs their whilst you visit the farm.
ACCESS TO THE SITE :o(
Since the site is so close to the A38 you would think it was easy to access...it is until the last 2 miles which is a busy tight windy lane. It has the appearance of passing places but some can be deceptive & do not let 2 caravans pass - as I found out !! My advice is not to let this put you off this site but arrive late in the afternoon & make sure you leave early morning. If you leave around midday then expect to meet a fellow caravanner and hope one of you has excellent reversing skills.
I would love to return to this site but wish the local council or highways agency would do something about that lane.
2 more tips - definately try the mobile fish & chip shop, also try the mobile butcher who does some excellent meats for your bbq.
