A great place for relaxation, walks, and a picnic with family. We love to walk here on weekends, like many other families.

Parked up for the night in the motorhome, in this delightful village that is well looked after. It's easy to see that the residents take pride in their village. Large common to walk around, we parked up in one of the car parks at the top of the common, where freshly made Pizza can be bought from a pizza van at a fair price.

It's a big bit of grass, with a decent enough kids' play park next to it. It is comprised of a few football/rugby pitches, a cricket green, and several tennis courts. Can get quite boggy in damp weather.
