点评:This was our second visit to Splitters Farm after having an amazing first experience, and we were excited to return. Feeding the rescue animals is always a real highlight — it’s such a special and memorable part of staying here.
However, we were disappointed to find out upon arrival that the only camp kitchen, dam, and surrounding area would be unavailable to camping guests due to a wedding, from midday of our two-night stay until after we were due to leave. While we’re very happy for the wedding couple, it was frustrating not to have been informed about this at the time of booking, as it impacted our stay quite a lot. We had planned to use the beautiful kitchen area for meals and to enjoy a BBQ, and it’s normally a lovely spot to meet other campers. Instead, we could barely access it and had to rethink our meal plans on arrival.
Additionally, we had purposely chosen a site close to the amenities for convenience with kids, but this backfired as the wedding noise went on until at least 1:30am, meaning we barely slept. The bathrooms also saw a lot more use with the wedding guests, but the cleaning and maintenance didn’t seem to keep up with the extra demand.
Splitters Farm is not a budget campground, so it was disappointing to pay premium prices while key facilities were unavailable.
It’s still a beautiful place and we do love it, but better communication would have made a big difference. If campers are going to lose access to major facilities due to events like weddings, this should be clearly stated before booking so we can plan accordingly.
翻译:这是我们第二次造访Splitters Farm,第一次体验非常棒,我们迫不及待地想再次造访。喂养救援动物总是一大亮点——这是住宿期间非常特别且难忘的一部分。
然而,抵达后我们却失望地发现,由于要举办婚礼,营地唯一的厨房、水坝及其周边区域将从我们入住两晚的中午起直到我们离开后都无法对露营客人开放。虽然我们为新婚夫妇感到高兴,但在预订时却没有收到通知,这让我们很失望,因为这严重影响了我们的住宿体验。我们原本计划在漂亮的厨房用餐和烧烤,那里通常也是结识其他露营者的绝佳地点。然而,我们几乎无法进入,不得不在抵达后重新考虑用餐计划。
此外,为了方便带孩子,我们特意选择了一个靠近便利设施的营地,但事与愿违,婚礼的喧闹声一直持续到凌晨1:30,我们几乎没怎么睡觉。婚礼宾客也更多地使用了浴室,但清洁和维护似乎跟不上额外的需求。
Splitters Farm 露营地并非经济型露营地,因此,在主要设施无法使用的情况下支付高价令人失望。
它仍然是一个美丽的地方,我们非常喜欢它,但如果能更好地沟通,情况会大有不同。如果露营者因为婚礼等活动而无法使用主要设施,应该在预订前明确说明,以便我们做出相应的安排。
