"The pod we stayed in was roomier than expected with a kettle, tea cups and access to drinking water."
Cons:
"No distancing between tents come out one morning and someone had pitched a tent straight in front of mine so nearly tripping over their guide ropes not much flat ground to put your tent on lots of holes and lumps from mole hills on the pitching area."
"Other issue was campers told to pitchup wherever they like so some tents closer to others than people may like, despite pitch sizes being advertised on websites."
"The electric camping pitches were not allocated, this was simply a free for all so it was difficult to find a good spot and you were very close to other pitches."
"The site is small and there is no privacy between the pitches."
"Small site for tents, and super loud neighbours who pitched their tent literally 1m from mine."
"No allocated spaces for the tents meaning others did pitch a little too close- they got to enjoy our snoring!"
