Arrived home after a lovely stay here for the bank holiday weekend. Contact a little tricky beforehand but a pleasant visit when there. Great kids climbing frame and gorgeous location for camping with EHU. We had a blissful time. A couple more hook up points could be helpful and pressure in the washing up taps temperamental. It was also tricky fitting rubbish in the bin as needed emptying. However the facilities were clean, with hot water and well kempt surroundings. The people running it are incredibly accommodating, we are grateful and will certainly come back.
