Liked: Friendly owner. Relaxed atmosphere.
Disliked: Only one toilet and in same building as the shower so often a wait in the morning/ evening. The floor was always filthy. No clean water provided regularly to mop the floor. Bins in bathroom never emptied over our long weekend stay. No hand soap in the bathroom. No hot water in bathroom sink/ dish washing sink.

Liked: Rural setting A simple site, a nice place to stop over. Lovely view. Livestock in the next field! The owners were all lovely
Disliked: The entrance was a bit vague, but no real drama Gate was locked on arrival and I couldn’t get hold of anybody. But soon rectified

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Very hospitable host and waking up to cows and sheep was the highlight! The field is enclosed and extremely safe. Barely any phone reception but that was a plus for us due to wanting to shut off from life. The free range eggs were DELICIOUS. We had 3 dogs with us and they loved it too. We had them off lead as they’re well behaved and the access to the animals is secure. The sound of the birds in the morning was like heaven. There’s a toilet and shower on site too with a guard Goose watching over! Haha!There's also a sink for washing up. We had to leave earlier than expected due to personal reasons but we’ll definitely be returning with more family this summer.
