Hi Rizzo,
These "tent campers" to whom you refer...... Were they all inconsiderate? Were no "other type" of camper inconsiderate? Who were the "people" walking through your pitch? Do they not have a "label" too? Would it not have been "more appropriate" to have used the less generic term "inconsiderate campers". Or am I simply missing something?

Apologies for seemingly dissecting your post.... nothing personal!

Well as we were one of the few caravans in the field we were put in, we were surrounded by tent campers some of whom forget that they have no sound proofing between them and thin nylon and play loud music and run their engines relentlessly outside my friends awning to 'charge my mobile phone'. As for the cutting through our pitches, the design of the 'natural' dividers of meadow grass with lawned cut throughs encouraged this, and I'm afraid cutting through my pitch is my biggest bug bare.

Wow, the Plassey -there's a blast from the past. Last time I went there must have been early 80s........I can't remember exactly but it was the year they made it law to have to wear a seatbelt in the front seat of your car......so yes, a long time ago LOL

Glad to hear the site is still doing well....although by the sounds of it the prices have risen just a bit

I am pleased to say that having not been camping for eight years, my 7 year old daughter insists that she wants to try it, so the Plassey automatically came to mind as first choice. I mentioned it to my older kids, not expecting them to be interested, but they are because they enjoyed it so  much last time. It takes a lot to get a 21 year old and an 18 year old to tag along by choice, so they must have really fond memories of the last trip.

We have booked in for 4 days in August and can't wait.

John,

We came last week from Wednesday to Sunday on Spring Meadow. Just as good as I last remembered - no probably better, as we had the joy of really nice weather. You really do have a great facility, excellent staff and we all can't wait to have more time with you again next year. There are very few places that keep a 7 year old, 18 year old and 21 year old happy at the same time. I cannot praise the site enough. We will be back when the warmer weather returns.
