Just been to Carsington Water site,Arrived on Thursday, site half full.Eventually understood the pitch marker colour scheme. Nice pitch. Facilities clean. Friday the masses arrived, site full. Some 30 cars in vistor park overnight suggesting double useage of some pitches. 130 ,pitches x 4/5 =500 people say. The toilet block by 10am was like a war zone, queues, dirty, no toilet rolls etc.One block is inadequate here at week ends.After all we had paid a premium price of £24 per night. Must admit this is our first visit to a club site in peak period. Moral is, dont do it if you want clean, adequate facilities.Mass exodus of 64 vans Sunday morning. The pricing structure must be wrong if the site is only half full on weekdays but overcrowded at weekends. We left there for 4 days at Nat Trust site in Ilam. Full facilities, peaceful at £12 per night.
