Avoid the toilets and showers.

We stayed in the campsite to the rear and it was ok, quiet and a flat hard standing. The toilets and showers were no more than sheds and not overly clean. The shower door fell off when I used it. We used the pub both nights we were there first night was a Saturday and there were no more than 20 people in there. Beer was good and the service fine. However on the second night( the Sunday) we were happily drinking and chatting when the barmaid shouted “ sorry everyone we are closing”, it was 9.10 pm, everyone got up and left immediately. Oh well, we went back to our van and carried on drinking our beer. Obviously they don’t need the money. We did have breakfast before we left on Monday which was fine.

Dissapointing

Stopped here for lunch. Sadly this pub has been 'corporate Hall and Woodhoused'. Bland interior. Philly steak sandwich was dissapointing as was the cod baguette. Really basic food. Service was as good as it could be with one member of staff trying to serve drinks, take food orders and wait on tables whilst checking people into the campsite - unfair on the staff and meant a wait for all customers concerned. Would NOT return.

Shower old and not enough water and not enough power coming through to wash your hair. Wouldn’t turn off after a shower and next day no hot water. As we were going to a wedding this was highly inconvenient.
SaniToilet wouldn’t flush and constantly making the grinding noise all night. Reported it and someone came to sort it but it happened again.
Stopped doing food at 730pm because of ‘the weather’ it was really warm and too busy’
Went down for breakfast and sat for 30 mins no one came to take order and we were told we should have ordered breakfast the night before.
Ran out of breakfast. Told my friend she could have a big bowl of scrambled eggs as nothing left that she could eat on low residue diet. Actually given a little dessert bowl of small serving of scrambled eggs.
Cobwebs everywhere, in all the windows outside. Needs a really clean outside. Sat outside and cobwebs everywhere on the wooden gazebos.
Disabled toilet in the bar would not flush, had to lift the cistern and do it.
Would not book again or recommend.

Had to find another restaurant to eat, last orders called at 10 pm on Saturday night in July. Very basic breakfast offering.

Excellent location
