The Site
The site features five spacious pitches, each screened from the next by fencing and hedges. The site is surrounded on north and west sides by the original garden walls and on the south side by a screen of mixed pine trees.
The grass is cut twice a week, which takes us around an hour or so, including in your pitch, so everything is kept looking smart and tidy! (If you can move your car out of your pitch for a few minutes, the grass cutting man is always very grateful!)
Important Note re: Awning Use
Each pitch has a hard standing area covering one side of the pitch area (the left-hand side as you face the pitch, as shown on the aerial design above). We recommend you use this for your caravan and car or your caravan an awning. Please place your awning entirely on the hard standing, including pegs and guy lines. Awnings are not permitted on the grass. They kill the grass within days, which cannot quickly be rectified for the next visitor. You may require a mallet/cordless screwdriver with sturdy steel pegs or rock pegs.
The Pitches
Each pitch is around eight metres deep and around 10 metres wide. These large pitches are split into two sections. As you face into the pitch, the left-hand side is finished in durable hard standing, whilst the right-hand side is grass. This allows space for your caravan and awning on the hard standing with plenty of access spaces around them, whilst your car can be parked on the grass.
Each pitch has its own drinking water supply and a 16A power hook-up.
Here is some specific information regarding each pitch. It assumes you reverse your caravan or motorhome in, with the back facing the rear of the pitch:
Pitch One: Fenced on all sides, with new fenced hedges to both sides and rear. Mature growth trees directly behind and agricultural land beyond. The pitch faces north, so will enjoy the sun throughout the day. Large trees to the rear can make getting TV/Satellite signal more challenging! Pitch is around 90m (290ft) from recycling area, grey water disposal and chemical disposal points. EE 4G coverage is excellent.
Pitch Two: Fenced on all sides, with new fenced hedges to both sides and rear. Mature growth trees directly behind and agricultural land beyond. The pitch faces north, so will enjoy the sun throughout the day. Large trees to the rear can make getting TV/Satellite signal more challenging! Pitch is around 90m (290ft) from recycling area, grey water disposal and chemical disposal points. EE 4G coverage is excellent.
Pitches one are two are our most open pitches with the least shade and are located adjacent to each other, if you are travelling with another party.
Pitch Three: Walled at the back and right hand sides, mature fenced hedges to your left side. The pitch faces east, so will enjoy morning sun. Pitch is around 50m (165ft) from recycling area, grey water disposal and chemical disposal points, so is ideal for those with poorer mobility. EE 4G coverage is excellent.
Pitch Four: Walled at the back, mature fenced hedges to both sides. The pitch faces east, so will enjoy morning sun. Pitch is around 30m (130ft) from recycling area, grey water disposal and chemical disposal point. EE 4G coverage is excellent.
Pitch Five: Walled at the back, mature fenced hedges to both sides. The pitch faces east, so will enjoy morning sun. Pitch is around 15m (50ft) from recycling area, grey water disposal and chemical disposal points, so is ideal for those with poorer mobility. EE 4G coverage is excellent.
Access to CL Family Bathroom. Access to the bathroom via the most direct route is around 100m (300ft) from most pitches. Pitches five and four are closest, one is farthest away. This access requires adequate mobility to get up a few steps. For this using a mobility scooter, access via the main entrance to the site and the road is possible, although the gravel clippings in front of the bathroom may make the last few meters tricky for smaller ‘indoor’ scooters with small wheels. Access via this route is around 200m or 600ft from the centre of the site. Pitch one is closest. If you have any questions about this, please contact us directly.
On the North edge of the site is a south-facing, semi-enclosed recreation area for picnics and barbecues, that may be enjoyed whatever the weather!
The Family Bathroom
Adjacent to the CL site to the North is the estate Stable Block, which dates back to 1826.
It features a beautiful grade II listed Georgian facade, within which, there is a family bathroom, which provides two separate toilet cubicles, two sinks with illuminated mirrors and electric razor points, plus a separate a shower room with four shower cubicles, each with an electric shower, storage stool and clothes hanging hooks.
(Note for disabled customers: The shortest route to the bathroom requires the use of steps. For those who use a mobility scooter, access is possible via the main site entrance, although it is a little further).
