The only issue was the cooker. It was difficult to light the oven as it had to be lit with a lighter as would not light automatically because button didn't work. Possible health and safety issue. Could do with some hooks in shower room to put wet towels on. Had a lovely stay.

Also there was a sign stating if dog mess was found left around your caravan area you would be charged £50 for the cleaning company to remove it, unfortunately there were a number of dogs wandering around the campsite so obviously this is unacceptable.

It was only 4 people accommodation which ruined our holidays. It was advertised that there was dish washer where there was no dish washer .over all no satisfactory accommodation at all. The holiday park is not clean at all
