Everything, I can't find fault with the site. For one of us this was a first time camping experience as an adult. Really unsure about using a compost toilet but these were clean and not even smelly in the slightest. We chose a Friday that had a function. The band wasn't on too late, the cider was fantastic, tacos lovely (tiny bit pricey but still overall worth trying). Access for cars is great.

Pitching up was straightforward car can go in to offload only but there is parking area attached to the field.

Most pitches are flat, grass is at a reasonable level, facilities are not very far away.

Owners are really friendly and considerate. Happy to have a natter.

If you are a light sleeper there is some early morning noise at about 6am from surrounding area from cattle n road. Would recommend ear plugs.

Beautiful place to stay lovely orchards to walk through.
We stayed as a family with young adults who enjoyed the Friday night cider barn.
Dogs loved the walks through the orchards.
Environment friendly site and star gazing was great.
Lovely to have fires.
No hidden extras.We took a bell tent, awning,2 dogs, pup tent ,car and trailer.
A thoroughly relaxing holiday.

Would have like another toilet in camping field.

Lovely peaceful site with plenty of space for all. If you want a quiet pitch just set yourself up away from everyone as there is plenty of space.

The kitchen is basic but very handy to have access to a fridge and kettle!

Pizza night at the cider barn was great too!

Great experience from beginning to end. We were welcomed to our bell tent on arrival the atmosphere was warm and family friendly. Our children (11 + 4) loved the swing and enjoyed roasting marshmallows on the campfire. The facilities were everything we needed. The toilets were always clean and well stocked with supplies. Thank you for a lovely Bank holiday weekend.

Nothing.

We had a wonderful experience right from the start with the owner.
The facilities were as described and clean.
You could buy a basket of logs for your fire pit.
The beds were comfortable.

Fantastic site. beautiful area. Very calm and relaxing

Bad track to drive down , punched a family members car wheel. Set my engine light on( lucky it was just a sensor)
No one to grate on arrival, no one to say what Tent you will be allocated.
Shared facilities which is fab BUT if you have a family that has booked the WHOLE unit you will not be-able to us the facilities. We sadly had to throw food away, because we couldn’t store it and we couldn’t eat it as a very large family had taken over the kitchen. There is no noise limit…

We loved our stay at North Down Orchard. The atmosphere on a Friday evening at the Cider barn was amazing! Great food too! Lovely host, would definitely stay here again.

Open spaces, green credentials, facilities were great, lovely vibe, Friday night at the cider barn was fabulous and should have not eaten before we arrived!

Minor point really but may have been nice to know in advance of the party in the barn on the Saturday as we may have pitched a little further away. Lovely live music but it was a bit loud for our kids to get to sleep. Pre warning info needed perhaps

The Bell Tent and camping area are in a beautiful spot on the lovely cider farm. Tents themselves are very nice, with good communal facilities. The Cider Barn was fantastic and draws a great crowd of friendly locals and serves fabulous food and drink!

Nothing. It didn’t come any where near what the website was saying

We looked at your website & thought wow! What a stunning place & so booked for 2 nights.
The website states, despite the green credentials, you won’t be roughing it, luxurious showers & composting toilets hand crafted from oak.
The field kitchen complete with fridge freezer, microwave, electric hob & kettle etc..
‘Glamorous’ bell tents, a true glamping experience.
I’ve attached a few photos of our experience as it really does not live up to how you’ve advertised it & we would like a full refund.
We booked as we attended a wedding on Friday & will have a friends 60th birthday there, at the farm, on Saturday, we are unable to stay in such poor conditions. And this has ruined our weekend.
Please zoom in on photos attached. The bell tent also smelt of damp which was really sickening.
The wooden surrounds of the toilet seats are all saturated with urine.
The kitchen is un useable, squashed beer cans to level out the cooker. The toaster, just zoom in, I need say no more & the electrical leads & sockets are just not legal.
The whole of the bell tent is covered in mould. Very damp & very, very smelly.
The tea making facilities on a dirty, stained table with dirty mugs.

It does state in the contract if we leave the tent dirty, you will fine us £100. Maybe, we should fine you for the same.
The unisex loo in the bar/barn was so dirty, I found an antiseptic cleaning spray & cleaned it before I used it.
There was 1 ladies loo in the house.
This was someone’s actual shower room where there were personal belongings
It’s just not right.
The owner called to say he will refund our money as long as we don’t leave a negative review!!
We’ve yet to get a response from Pitch Up
Please do zoom in on each photo.
