Liked: I love how peaceful the campsite is. The birds are singing, there's a stream burbling away nearby, and everything is so scenic. Adele helped me level up, assisted with my ramps, and came to check on me this morning. The farmer brought me freshly laid eggs and wouldn't take a penny, so I've had the freshest eggs I've ever had for breakfast, not far from where the chickens laid them. Only opened last year, this campsite is fantastic, a real gem, that I will be coming back to again and again! The road up to the campsite would be challenging in a lower car, but my little hippy bus managed it in first gear no trouble. It's part of the fun!

Liked: Back to rugged nature with the safety net of basic civilized amenities. Social ares that enabled you to expand beyond the confines of the van. Friendly helpful hosts.
Disliked: The weather. Left wondering how good it would have been if we had had some warm sun and a bit of dry.

Liked: A stunning location with fabulous views across the valley.Driving up the lane is like travelling to Middle Earth. It’s only a few minutes from the motorway but a completely different world ..a wonderful wilderness. While it rained heavily the result were some stunning rainbows including one which ended right next to us ( the two large rocks on the path over the stream by the office - if you’re looking for the crock of gold ) & there were shooting stars and tawny owls. This is the perfect place for a family adventure, it’s very safe with loads of places to explore. It is beautifully cared for with facilities which while basic are very clean and accessible. The whole site is managed by the lovely owners who checkin regularly to make sure you have everything and are happy to tell you the stories of the land. Go there while you still can to experience this wonderful wilderness.

Liked: This was our first camping trip and wow 🤩 it’s was great. A lovely warm reception from Adele when we arrived. She guided us to our pitch, handed us water and gave valuable info on what was around. We had our own fire pit and showers/toilets were close by. Adele even supplied us with a gas cooker in the morning so we could cook out breakfast! Parking was perfect too, as we travelled with a van, we were able to unload right next to our pitch. We set up our igloo dome which we supplied and off we went exploring. The woods on site are beautiful to wander through, even though we didn’t see the horses as they were roaming free, we did spot other wildlife. The kids had a great time. We ventured to the waterfalls the following day, which were a short journey from the site. All in all it was a great way to end our Summer. We would happily return next year and recommend to others!
Disliked: It rained, but who can control that ai? It was part of the fun!
