Wonderful stay, we will be returning :)
Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked Beautiful campsite, onsite bar, breakfast onsite was wonderful. Shower blocks were nice and cleaned regularly. The goats were super cute and loved feeding them! Was a brilliant camp overall and I will be returning!
Disliked Having to pay fo the shower was a bit much for 10 mins of hot water a £1 and it has a countdown timer so didn't feel too relaxed but I also totally get having to pay as it limits the hot water usage as its a popular campsite. Some toilets didn't have any toilet roll but I always bring my own anyways. The washup area could use some work but they are already sorting that soon.

Great location
Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked Friendly welcome, pick your own pitch, (this is on hill so take levelers) allows BBQs and fires (can hire), nice clean facilities, hot showers, (20p 2 min or £1 for 10 min) nice waterfall walk near by, cafe serves alcohol nice beer garden with a view, brilliant full English but best of all very cute cheeky Kids (goats) that you can feed!
Disliked Washing up facilities are basic but know this is the next plan.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked Plenty of space and you can pick where you pitch. Owners were very welcoming.
Toilet and showers clean, plenty of hot water.
I didn't eat in the cafe but the food smelt amazing as there was lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Will happily return.
Disliked My only complaint would be a lack of proper pot wash area, which I would have expected given the size of the site. There is a fold out table, wash bucket and a single tap on the wall as a water source but no sinks and waste water just goes on the floor. Hot water can be got from the bar. An extra water tap in the field would be great.

From the manager: We are aware the pot wash is a negative, but that is our next job hopefully in the next couple if weeks. We did the showers and toilets this spring a pot wash area is next.
We only got planning permission to open longer last year, hence more jnvestment now in facilities.
Clean facility's , friendly, decent space

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked *Lovely welcome and friendly staff
*The goats and feeding
*The views over the peaks and reservoirs
*The horses
*Very clean toilets and shower block
*Pick your own pitch. Very uneven on a slope but have ramps and was able to level. Not a problem for tents
*Few picnic benches available to park up next to which we did.
* Very peaceful, stunning views.
*Great phone signal
Disliked Can’t fault it. Will mention the lane in is quite tight. Was fine for my VW Camper and they have made a one way system in and one way out through the field so very safe and efficient
