What customers say
This is a very well-maintained and clean campsite, particularly praised for its dog-friendly facilities, including large, enclosed exercise areas and a dog pond. Pitches are generally spacious, and the facilities, including showers and toilets, are frequently highlighted as being spotlessly clean and modern. The site is described as peaceful and beautiful, with lovely views and lakes. Some minor issues mentioned include occasional problems with shower temperature and a lack of footpaths directly from the site for walking.

Non-electric grass pitch (large)
Liked We had a really nice stay.
It was accessible and even when it was fully booked the toilets and showers were clean and never full. It was a quiet site. Very dog friendly. The two dog fields were lovely and the dogs enjoyed the pond they could swim in. There are shops in the next village just up the road. The site was clean. The pitches are really sweet and well maintained. The lady who runs it is lovely. There is a dog wash which came in handy because it was hot. The fridge, freezer, washing machine etc were all clean and tidy. People were very friendly. Lovely walks locally. Will come back if they will have us :).
Disliked There’s nothing really to dislike. It was a sweet little site.

Non-electric grass pitch (large)
Liked This campsite was immaculate, the bathrooms the kitchen area and the pitches and surrounding areas. As stated it is very dog friendly the only thing they ask is to keep them on leads in the main camp site. There are two large fields that the can run in and be safe as they are gated. There is a dog pond for them to cool off and a shower. Thank you for a wonderful weekends.

Electric grass pitch (large)
Liked Was an amazing campsite! The dog loved the pond to swim in after the weather was so hot. The friendly staff and other campers made it one of the best campsites we have ever stayed at!
Disliked Some people let their dogs roam around not on the lead which set all the other dogs off
