Liked: The accommodation was perfect! The owners were not there but we were well looked after by the young man that was working there. My daughter loved meeting the animals, which were very clearly loved and cared for well by their owners. We will definitely be back!

Wudu Woodland unpowered grass and earth tent site
Liked: Option to pitch tent in woodland or on field next to the woodland. Woodland pitches are suitable for smaller tents, a larger tent you can stand up in that is bigger than a 3 person wouldn’t fit. Woodland has communal tarp-covered area Good toilet and shower facilities. You must either take a fire bowl or hire one £10 including £5 returnable deposit. Very friendly owners Good walks straight from the campsite

Wudu Woodland unpowered grass and earth tent site
Liked: Wow - what a special place! Intake Farm is such a friendly, peaceful, fun and refreshingly wild site. I loved it! Maria and David are very thoughtful and kind hosts. They put so much effort into making sure their guests have the best experience. Everyone's invited to meet and help feed the amazing array of animals, which is such a great way to switch and relax. I learned a lot! The pitches are distanced to avoid cramming tents next to each other. It's quiet at night, and in the daytime there's a lovely hum of animals, kids playing, campers pottering about and the steam train in the distance. If you want a pub meal there's a village nearby, but I was so happy I just hunkered down with a fire and listened to the owls! Thanks for having me, it was exactly what I needed and I'll be back again very soon.
Disliked: Nothing, it was magical.
