Overview
On this occasion, I was here with my hubby but I often go motorhoming alone so I review with independence in mind. This site is dead easy to get to and almost perfect for my access needs. The only thing I wouldn't be able to do independently is empty the toilet, as the lovely accessible path to the elsan point is blocked by fire and grit bins. Otherwise though, this site is very pleasant indeed.
Transport & Parking
I don't think you could get any closer to the A1(M) without actually being on it. You come off at J62 and the site is right there. It was so easy, I didn't even bother with SatNav.
Access
Getting around the site was easy for me with either chair (normal manual chair and mountain trike). I used my trike for the dog run, which, at this time of year, was plenty wide enough. I could walk my dog independently. All facilities and buildings are level access, clearly signed and spotlessly clean. The only slight niggle is that you can't get to the elsan point without having to go on grass, even though originally a path was there. It is now blocked.
Toilets
Good accessible toilet and shower. Loads of grab rails. Warm, clean, lovely! It is RADAR locked, so bring your key.
Staff
Staff were lovely on arrival. Very efficient and helpful.
