Powered grass RV campsite
Liked: All grass and no hard standing. Site restricts number of places so it is very quiet and peaceful enhanced by the riverside on the south. Owners Deborah and Martin were very welcoming. Super geodesic tent fitted out wth lounge furniture and hot water flask, just perfect for socialising with other guests.
Disliked: One shower room needed a bit of maintenance.
