Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Quick and easy to book, fair price and it had the cleanest portable loo we’ve ever seen.
Disliked: The campsite was near a busy road and so the sound from the traffic was off putting and made it difficult to sleep. Obviously this is out of the campsite staff’s control and we should have checked the location before making the booking.

Liked: What a lovely little site, right on the river, perfect for launching paddleboards / kayaks. Flat field and well maintained. Run by a nice welcoming family. The freshest smelling portaloo I've ever used. We will be back with our paddleboards, see you soon. Sally and Sarah (S&S)
