Wife got a message through to Owner and he's just rung me back.

As you say no overhead lines, he got them taken out and run underground.

£20 per pitch which includes Tent/Campervan/Caravan and car and 2 people.  Any more than 2 people it is £2 per person per night.

We don't have to book or pay in advance, just let him know how many are coming and pay when we get there.

He will allow one small dog who is well behaved and on a lead and you pooper scoop it up.

Loving it! Right now we are having a sing-song around the campfire.

Usually light aircraft or small commercial/corporate, can't recall hearing anything at night and certainly no "heavies".

No heavies apart from the odd Chinook or two  8)
