Electric optional grass tent pitch
Liked Nice site, very quiet. Just birdsong and horse noises. Relaxing and tranquil. Level grass to pitch on, plenty of space, clean toilet & shower block. Just the 3, but as the site is small, never had to wait for a shower.
Disliked Nothing.

What customers say
This campsite is praised for its peaceful, quiet, and relaxing atmosphere, with many highlighting the friendly and helpful owners. Pitches are described as well-spaced, private, and secluded by trees. The modern toilet and shower facilities are consistently reported as clean and well-maintained. Some guests appreciated the scenic countryside location and proximity to walking routes. A few minor issues were noted, including a lack of washing-up facilities and occasional problems with hot water or a lack of toilet roll, though a manager comment indicates the latter has been resolved.

Last minute booking and exactly what we wanted
Electric optional grass motorhome pitch
Liked Your welcomed by a lovely lady that shows you to your pitch. It's quiet, surrounded by horses and clean. Toilets are cleanest I have seen on a camp site.
Disliked Could do with a few more tickets even the small amount of campers that were there was a bit of a queue.
