Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch (family, maximum 6 metres)
Liked: What is not to like? Lovely, friendly welcoming and an awesome fford to drive across to get to the tent sites! The river location was lovely and the wooded area kept the children entertained for hours. Added bonus of the pub with some of the best pizza I’ve ever eaten! It is also located about 5min walk away to a football pitch and mini adventure trail, bonus! The toilet is a compost toilet, which actually once you’ve used to it, is just a toilet, my children thought it was cool!

Liked: We had a lovely waterside pitch midweek and the campsite to ourselves. Couldn't fault anything the pitches well kept and I fed the alpacas with Molly who was a lovely girl, then the next day met Caroline and her son Ollie who really nice. It was Rich and Alice who we saw most and who cooked us lovely reasonably priced meals at the pub. The locals made us feel at home and were really friendly. We had a really lovely walk whilst there and although never found the waterfall are eager to try it again. The icing on the cake for us is a campfire and we had 2 lovely nights sat out watching the birds and lots of bats at dusk. No stars as cloudy but we look forward to going again and felt so refreshed afterwards. Also to mention the drainage is very good and ground firm so no problems moving our motorhome. We have had lots of trouble this year with the wet weather on grass pitches but this one was amazing. No phone signal unless your on 3 but free wi fi in the pub and I just walked 30 yards towards beer garden and could get it when pub shut

Alpaca Area - Ash bell tent (four person)
Liked: The value for money is so good at this place. Also very easy to find. My husband and I stayed Saturday night with our daughter who loved the alpacas. The whole experience is so peaceful and serene. Very clean and breathtaking views. The hosts are so welcoming and friendly! Moly was amazing host showing us around especially introducing us to all the alpacas. We have already booked or next visit. :)

Liked: The site was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and couldn’t help enough. Compost toilets were well maintained and didn’t smell. River was great and full of trout for fishing. The alpaca were an amazing addition and my son had the chance to go and feed them free of charge.
Disliked: Honestly nothing to dislike here
