Liked What a lovely family run site, the play park was great the kids made friends, and it created a sociable space which could be observed from our tent. We loved the pizzas and had breakfast from the on site food trailer and the local pub was only a 20 minute walk and the food they serve is fabulous. There was hot showers, a choice or portaloos or compost loos. Some nice local walk and villages within easy reach. Firepits were available for hire or wood to purchase.

Disliked No electric pitches which might limit the number of nights we would want to stay.

Liked The owners are so friendly and my kids loved learning about Max and Wooliam the sheep and Sissy the cow. The family field had 3 portaloos which were always very clean and well stocked with loo paper, we never had to queue for a toilet once either. There are some composting toilets in the adults only field too. The river and woodland is lovely for dog walks and my kids even had a swim in the river. There's loads of space for bike rides and the kids loved the playground. Fire pits are so cheap to rent for your whole stay and wood very cheap also, saves lots of room in the car rather than having to bring your own.

Disliked You couldn't ask for a better campsite honestly. Only tip I would offer is to bring a collapsible draining board if you plan on doing any washing up.

Liked The rustic feel to the campsite. It felt very unengineered.
Great family feel with all the kids playing together at the climbing frame area.
The hosts were great & always around on site making you feel welcome & looked after.

Liked Lovely site, food available (breakfast and pizzas)
Really nice site and they’ve only been up and running a couple of years. Really well maintained and lovely owners. Can’t wait to come back

Disliked Non flushing toilets were a bit hard to get used to especially when people didn’t help with keeping them clean.

Liked Great open space, very quiet and peaceful, owners are really friendly and come round and see everyone. Pizza and fire pits on site are great but the best part for me was being able to pitch up meters from the kids play area so you can relax and still keep and eye on the little ones.

Disliked Nothing really. Only change I’d recommend is to upgrade the latch on the toilets so there isn’t as much as a gap.

Liked We had such a lovely stay here and honestly couldn’t fault it.

It’s a brilliant family-run campsite with such a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The owners were so helpful from the moment we arrived and couldn’t do enough for everyone.

The kids’ play park was fantastic and kept the children entertained, while the family field was perfect for families. Our kids made friends almost straight away, which made the trip even better. We also had a look at the adults’ field, which looked amazing alongside the river.

The homemade pizzas were exactly what we needed after arriving and getting everything set up with the children, and they were delicious! The food van serving fresh breakfast cobs in the morning was another great touch – you really couldn’t ask for more.

The river is shallow in places, so it’s ideal for children to paddle, and there’s lovely woodland behind it to explore too.

The toilets were spotless every single day, which really stood out, and it was great that they even put the football on a projector for anyone who wanted to watch.

This is such a child-friendly campsite with everything you need for a relaxing family break. We had an amazing time and were already planning our next visit before we’d even left.

Thank you for a wonderful stay – we’ll definitely be back this summer!

Disliked Could not fault this site or owners in any way

Liked absolutely excellent site, loads of space for the kids to play, loved paddling in the river, the climbing frame.

lovely hot drinks served near the farmhouse and we had pizzas too.

On the Saturday night the owners set up a big screen for us all to watch the football together.

Great value

Liked Lovely campsite! Very child friendly!
Owners are very welcoming when you arrive and throughout the stay. Lots of room for pitches for lone tents or groups.
Food van open from the morning till night!
Will recommend.

Disliked Dog muck…

Liked Simple campsite managed excellently.

Warmly welcomed by Katie and Alistair and checked in later to see if everything was ok.

We pitched in the family field with small children’s play area which appeared to be loved by 4 all the way to 14yr olds and the field had shaded areas which was a relief this time of year.

Unfortunately we had noisy (presumably drunken)neighbours well into the morning hours which was a shame but not on the owners.

Offered fire pit and starter logs (which we purchased). Pizzas from onsite van (which we purchased)- they let us use our own cheese and toppings as we are awkward allergics (see photo).

Really nice woodland walks nearby. We had a great stay.

Disliked Inconsiderate campers. Maybe a curfew warning would be appropriate- especially in the family field.
