A further 25 bungalows, to a different design, built during 1978-79. The bungalows built in 1978/79 have recently been extended by the site owner together with some of the 69 bungalows built in 1968 69. In addition there is a large car park and various site facilities including an indoor swimming pool, sauna, club room, games room, reception area, shop, laundry room, outdoor tennis courts, pitch and putt and children’s play area.
