Wonderful park set in a picturesque location. The park itself is beautifully maintained and a short walk to the Mills complex and an excellent pub. Staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming. We've stayed a couple of times now on an ensuite site and have highly recommended this park to friends and family. Looking forward to our next visit.

I can’t fault this caravan park. The 60’s vintage caravan is beyond perfect for a solo traveller. Very clean and comfortable. The check in and arrival process was contactless, which is just an absolute delight.
