Another cheeky weekend away, so back to a firm favourite of ours, namely ‘The Croft Campsite’. This small 15 ‘van site is one of the best smaller scale campsites in the area. Once under the jurisdiction of the Camping & Caravan Club, but now free to welcome more than 5 ‘vans!
We arrived Saturday afternoon and were once again warmly greeted by Beverley who showed us to one of two remaining pitches. This is the fullest we’ve ever seen it, out usual spot had been taken, gasp! Even though there are more units allowed on the campsite now, it is never crowded, the pitches are of ample size. Water taps are more plentiful now with one between every two units. CDP and waste are the same as before, all up there with the best. Information room and kitchen still there, but now with the addition of a washing machine. Seriously, you couldn’t ask for more from a site. EHU are all 16A. The wash block is the same as last time with a separate ladies and gentleman’s door leading to a sink, toilet & shower, very nice. We were soon set-up and enjoying the very nice weather. So nice I decided to wash the ‘van so that she was sparkling for the whole weekend. Tea and evening followed, relaxing into the night.
Sunday, off to church so an early start. Upon returning the weather was still glorious, more outside relaxing was called for. We even had the joy of an escaped sheep from the field coming to visit us! Bliss, this is what a weekend escape is all about.
Monday, now for something different! We are changing storage sites, so our return journey was not the usual. Everything went well at the new site. We are now a lot closer to home and have 24hr key-fob access, awesome 🙂
