Liked: Great facilities always clean and tidy. Not too bust but for Easter Bank Holiday with unpredictable weather forecast there was still around 15 pitches. It seemed half the field was roped off so those pitches were squeezed in a bit but it was still nice enough. The field was very wet and muddy and cars could not go onto the field but the gravel entry and unloading space meant it was still fine to unpack the car and carry everything to the pitch.
Disliked: Noisy group of 4 teenage boys. This disrupted an otherwise pleasant stay when they persisted on making nose well after the quiet time cut of of 10pm. After having to shout at this group they did eventually shut up and allow us and our children to sleep. This is not the venue's fault obviously but when we look for sites we look for family friendly places that don't allow single sex groups and this was not applied in this case which is the responsibility of the site. This site claims the below but did not enforce this in reality. Groups welcome D. of E. welcome Family friendly Motorcycle friendly No Single-sex groups welcome No Student groups welcome

Liked: Lovely and quiet campsite! The facilities were good and very clean and the staff are really helpful. There’s a cafe and a pub within walking distance and plenty more options within 10’ drive. We really enjoyed our stay.

Liked: We had a wonderful time at Five Acres. They’ve got drinking water, a place to wash the pots, clean toilets & showers. It was busy but didn’t feel like everyone was in your face. As soon as someone started blasting out their music, it was dealt with very quickly. The owners are nice and do stay on top of things. Would visit again 👍
