Took my wife and son there yesterday, what a disappointment. Firstly we waited exactly ONE HOUR for the food we ordered in the cafe. The place is run by kids with no understanding of customer service or real sense of urgency - everything's "Kewl", even if it's bad or late. There was one fat bird in the kitchen who seemed to be able to do one order at a time only, even if it was just one of their "famous" bacon rolls.
The cafe itself was scruffy, the tables un-cleared and not wiped down. Kewl again, I guess.
The toilets were in a disgraceful condition. Kewl.
Litter: we must have passed fifty to a hundred plastic Lucozade bottles bought in the shop then thrown down by the trail, that was just on the bits of trail we rode. I guess throwing litter is Kewl as well.
There was little altitude so after half an hour of climbing, admittedly not steep, the downhill was disappointing and there were plenty of extra climbs thrown in, on both the blue and red circuits. I mentioned this to another rider I met and he replied "Yes, of course; there's much better riding out there in the hills". He's right of course, nothing beats a map and compass and the big wide outdoors. Don't know why we bothered.
