we love this place been 3 times but only in our tent before we got the van  we are wanting to go there in our van but that hill puts us off, what set up have you got? and please let me know how you did with the hill. others tell me its not a problem but knowing my luck i would get stuck behind a combine harvester and have to stop half way up lol. Have a great time we always do there the kids love it we are off today too wahoo 
on our visit we went as a party of 4, 2 cars 2 tin tents, my own set up is a small ,lightweight 2 berth avondale towed by a 1.5 dci (diesel) megane, which managed to get up the hill in 3rd gear,( in all honesty i did get a bit of a run at it & no combine harvesters to get stuck behind)
my mate has a newer ,slightly larger & heavier, 2 berth tin tent towed by a 2.5 (petrol), x type jag , and much to his chargrin his motor struggled to pull his 'van up the hill, he had to crawl up in 2nd gear.
i'm not very technically minded but my mukka, said he wasn't surprised by the hill climbing performance of our respective cars , he put it down to the fact the my little 1'5 oil burner has a good deal of torque at the lower end
