Chris M.
Stay: Jul 2017
"Superb site that's really chilling - This camp site was so easy to find, being just off the N10 (or an easy short detour off the A10) and great for short or long stays. The rural setting was really peaceful and allowed us to chill after our long journey, plus the size of the site means you don't feel squeezed in. Our motorhome was hooked up to water, electricity and the free wifi within minutes. The newly-fitted facilities (pool, toilets, showers, washing machines) are pristine and are kept to a very high standard. As the temperatures soared whilst we were there, the pool was extremely welcome; it is surrounded by an immaculate terrace with plants and sunbeds, so a swim before dinner was a great way to start our evening. We were lucky to be one of Mark and Idli's first guests: they are really knowledgable about the area and made us feel very welcome, including our dog (she didn't want to leave) and ensured that we had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves; we hope to stay with them again very soon. Great value for money and the best site that we have used in the area. Chris, Helen and Tesse (le chien)
