Twanky and I stayed there a couple of months ago , Its a nice site , the long drop bogs aren't to everyone's taste and the shower block isn't the best/cleanest and Rob and I nearly shared a shower because only one worked at a time :roll:

The owners are laid back and allow off the glass fires and even rent out wheels to have them in.
Early morning you can hear the monkeys howling 8)
The local pub serves good beer and excellent food.
The local spar is fully stocked and does freshly cooked pizza's made to order.

Now here's the real pisser , opposite the site is the army's tank training area , so from 8am til' 9pm or when the helicopter with the green light fly s over there is big diesel engine noise .

Think it was a tenner a night with hook up
