Does anyone have any suggestions why the management of Highfields Caravan Park, Ashbourne, has requested that no reviews be published on UKCampsite? We were thinking of going there but wanted to check it out first. Is it so awful that any reviews will put potential campers off? By the way, Highfields' own website is really basic and uninformative.

Its quite obvious that they are afraid of any adverse comments and by stating that they do not want any reviews only goes to show that there could be something amiss with the campsite. they have basically shot themselves in the foot, and any campsite with the same attitude deserves to go out of  business.   kiev

Ok, so that's my opinion confirmed, but then why would the UKCampsite webmaster accede to their request?

Hmm, as has been said, sure you can draw your own conclusions from the fact they will not allow reviews...

Hi

We visited this site back in Easter with a group of friends.  We found the site to be very nice.  We were pitched in the large field at the bottom of the site, and there was plenty of space to spread out.

The only problem was that the toilet and shower facilities just didn't seem up to the job !!  There was either no hot water, or very little water pressure in the showers, and obviously being Easter weekend,  there were a lot of people wanting to use them !!  One morning I went to the large block, and all the shower cubicles were locked, so a member of staff had to be found to come and unlock them all ! 

Would I recommend this site??  Yes I probably would, but having said that I really don't agree with the No Reviews policy, it does make you think that they have problems there doesn't it?
