The urinal doesn't drain. Shower full of mud and hair. Water tap wastes around 5L of water with every push. Garbage rotting away in washing up facilities. Unfriendly communication over the phone. Unknown inconsiderate individuals leave engine running and car radio blaring for 15mins at 05.00am No directions on where to go upon arrival. Zero lighting at night.
Excellent little campsite

I hadn’t twigged that a fishing lake would attract loads of single blokes who are up fishing late into the night. Felt a bit of a weird campsite for a young family. But facilities were great. Clean toilets and lovely washing up area.
