Sadly I would need to wait probably another 3 - 4 months before they can slot me in again so will bite the bullet and change the booking to this weekend.

And the reason---- my son presented us with our second grandchild today which gives us the current grandson and now we have the Grand daughter. Life just gets better

We booked into Poston Mill from Wednesday to Sunday and it is a very nice site with friendly helpful wardens, however we cut our stay short and came back on Saturday. Warning unless you use Vodafone you have no network coverage for several miles. We had to travel back to Hereford to be able to use our mobile phone (O2) for a an urgent phone call.
Although the site has wifi if you are in the bottom section pitches W - Z and AA - DD there is no wifi or it is so poor signal keeps dropping out. Also almost zero chance of setting up satellite dish. Not major issues, but a pain in the rear. In addition, although the pitches are hardstanding each with their own water tap (very nice) awnings will be on grass and even after 4 days sunshine was still muddy. One of the reasons why we left early. Try and avioid being placed in that area at the bottom of the site. Also no fuel station for at least 10 miles so make sure you go with a full tank!
What really got my back up is how unfriendly the Postons Mill bar / restaurant is if you have a mobility disability. To get into the bar area to socialise involves several steep steps, but if after a few beverages you need the toilet, it is up a a steep flight of stairs to the first floor and then down another several stairs to the lower upper dining room. Of course you could always go down the steps in front, around and back up a steep incline and enter through a door at the back if they have opened it, but by that time you have probably wet yourself.
We did have food there and the food was above average. We ended up going to the Broughton Arms in Peterchurch for a drink and was pleasantly surprised. Lovely atmosphere, friendly locals and landlady by the name of Sheila. Can recommend stopping there for a drink or some food.
Hay on Wye about 10 miles north is a pleasant little village with lots to see and do and easier to get around than Hereford. Getting around Hereford involves a lot of stop and gop traffic so we avioded going there after one trip. Fuel is a lot dearer in Hereford then Worcester.
Although it is a very nice site with many facilities we would not be going back there again. Hope you lot have a better weekend than we did as we felt almost marooned on a lonely planet being stuck away in the far corner of the site and not being able to use the amenities as too far to walk.
Of course if you are wrecked most of the time you will not notice anything!

You made the 666 post.
Is that the sign of a wine connoisseur?
Oh dear No Phone, No Wi Fi, maybe no Tv-------------music to my ears
On second thoughts I might have to listen to Lady Gaga all day long,
Hope you Woosie's are up for plenty of Gossip

They only work if there is a weak signal and not no signal whatsoever. As we have Mifi we have never had an issue until Poston Mills and ther is no ways I am buying one of those when the site, any site, probably includes the set up costs of wifi in their pricing. You just pay extra to connect.
