Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Rustic but cheap with great views and stress relief
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked It's rustic. Toilet block is an old farm block, the camping field slopes but there are level patches. The views are fantastic. Been 4 times this year as a final nights camp after a festival or a week away and it's the perfect wind down. We always feel better than when we arrived.
Disliked No shower curtain makes keeping shoes dry and interesting feat. It would be nice if they used some of the farm equipment to dig out some level pitches.

Friendly nice staff we got unlucky with the guests
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked The owners were lovely and the views beautiful but the photos are deceiving it's not as big as we thought
Disliked Other guests, there was room over the far side of the field but a family of 10 decided to cram in next to me and my husband in our little tent, the music was full blast and the mother was loud and obnoxious.
We left and didn't even finish the stay

From the manager: We're sorry to hear that you didn't have a pleasant stay on our campsite.
We tell all guests on arrival that music and noise must be kept within their pitch, and music must be turned off at 10pm.
I spoke to all our guests this morning on site and no one mentioned any issues of noise.
If you had notified us by coming down to the farm house, or by calling us we would have taken action to ask them to keep the noise down or risk being told to leave the site.
Our photos are not deceiving, it is a large 5 acre field which is correctly reflected in the photos provided by us and our guests of our facilities.

Would stay again, friendly host welcoming me!
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Loved the simplicity of the pitch, which also reflects in the price. Perfect for what I needed for the night. Great views, ponies and cattle on either side.
Hot water dishwashing area which was undercover - brill.
Disliked I think the toilet and shower blocks could do with a lick of paint inside to feel more welcoming, the breeze blocks are a bit garden shed feeling but for £10 per night I understand the lack of sprucing.
