A lovely well kept site - we'd come back if passing. Good value
Non-electric grass motorhome pitch (maximum 6 metres)
Liked Loved the cleanliness of the facilities and the range of helpful things like freezers, charging points a plenty and the spotless toilets!
Kids loved the games room, nice to not have to pay for stuff like this for once. Family time playing games together!
The warm welcome by the host was also appreciated.
Car boot in the field directly next to it if that's your thing (I fortunately managed to drag my two away 🤣 saving me no doubt a small fortune)
WiFi is free too which is a nice touch. Doesn't quite reach to bottom of field but no issue really. Decent 4G signal on Vodafone but not Three.
Disliked Road noise from the 50mph road is noticeable in the day but does settle down at night. May have been worse due to the weekend with lots of motorbikers out in force!

Ground rules need to be set on quiet times.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Great facilities and close to local shop. The pitch size was a great benefit too.
Disliked I packed up and left at 1:35am due to a group having zero camping etiquette and not lowering the volume. I got fed up and went home after trying to get some sleep for several hours. Ground rules need to be set. I go camping to get a relaxing time away.I shouldn't be waking up in my own bed due to selfish people.

From the manager: We do try to ensure all our campers have a nice time with us. We are generally around for any issues and people are free to contact us 24/7. We were on site with the campers at 11pm that evening due to a party being held by our neighbours and we were concerned that campers might be being disturbed. At this time, the campsite was quite quiet.
Pitches fairly level. Small games room for pool and table tennis.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked A beautiful campsite. The hosts, we're there to greet us, they were around a lot if you needed anything. Very clean, small kitchen with a kettle, ideal for me as I'm an early bird so I could go and make a cuppa without disturbing anyone. Some reviews said about the noise of traffic but it didn't bother us. It depends if you're used to it. We will definitely go back.
Disliked There wasn't anything to dislike.

Loved our stay! We will definitely be coming back :)
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Really friendly hosts! Clean facilities and decent flat pitch. WiFi that works! Absolutely loved the relaxed atmosphere and no pressure to pack up and leave by a set time! We will definitely be coming back :)
Disliked A little shady being pitched near the trees when the sun is out (but can also work as a blessing when too hot!) - picking at straws really, nothing so bad to put us off at all

From the manager: Hi, thank you for your lovely review. We do try to be as relaxed as possible and allow campers to have a leisurely time.
