Thursday 9th July – Monday 13th July 2009
I visited this site about the same time last year [81st site] and don’t normally return to sites because of time limitations. However my daughter and family were visiting so I decided to join them.
Very little had changed apart from the weather, this time it was sunny and drier so most of the pitches could be used. The wardens were the same and they even remembered my name [a little worrying]. Rosedale Abbey looked beautiful in the summer sunshine; however I have noticed this with most places.
Since my last visit one of the pubs in the village had ceased trading but all of the other limited services are still available. Mobile phones still don’t work but a local TV transmitter, ready for digital telly had been switched on and most people onsite managed to get reception. Once again I have found that tree movement plays a big part in digital reception and I believe the future is looking bad for fixed aerials on caravan roofs. Time will tell.
Analogue TV signal good
Digital signal variable depending on tree movement.
£10.20 per night [3 adults for part of stay]
