Do not stay here!
Although we agree with all the other postings (vintage spot next to a sports ground with a special kind of old school charm), we would NOT recommend to stay there.
We stayed at the camp ground in Jan 2015 for night. In the morning the caretaker started spraying some liquid onto the plants, especially around the spots for the camper vans. Our child of 9 month was crawling around our camper and the caretaker didn't even bother and came closer spraying his stuff. Upon asking what he is spraying he admitted without further asking that he is spraying round up.
After asking him to stop immediately, he denied and continued. Even other guests who heard our conversation asked him to stop and he refused again. He instead started to argue.
After that we wrote a letter to the council at the local I-site (I don't know whether or not they have ever received this letter).
For everybody who is unfamiliar with round up: it is an herbicide that is probably causing cancer. The WHO-owned cancer research centre just released a new classification attesting this.
