It is a lovely base to explore the area.Very clean, with everything you need for a comfortable stay.Our second time here and would definitely book again. Have recommended The Willows and its location to our friends and family. ##### Russell TRACEY ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah May 30, 2024 Liked: Amenities Booked a 3 night break last minute. Owner of caravan contacted me with caravan details and then text to let me know caravan was ready. Heating was on when we arrived and we didn’t know how to turn it off, I text the owner and he was with us within minutes. Caravan is modern, clean and has everything you need to cook meals yourself, lots of pans, cutlery, trays, etc, a microwave, toaster, large fridge and freezer, oven and 5 ring gas hob. 2 comfy sofas’s and a footstool, table and chairs and patio set on decking and a bbq you can use. Beds were made up when we arrived and owners left towels for us to use which was great. Nice addition to have the little shopping village so close and was only a 10 minute drive to a little co-op which stocks everything you would need. Village shop does close at 4pm though. Cafe on site is nice. One night we came back to people flying giant lit up kites in the field which was lovely to watch. The owner has made a board which slots into the bars of the decking to keep your dog safe on the decking. Shower head was small but mighty. We found the beds quite uncomfortable. This is the only negative we have. The caravan has a smart tv with Netflix which was great. They have a boot sale on the field just a 2 minute walk from the caravan but unfortunately due to all the rain it was cancelled. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend as it’s a quiet and clean park to stay on and the caravan was lovely and the owners helpful and friendly ##### Sarah Stayed 3 nights in May 2024
