What customers say
This is a friendly, relaxed campsite with a great on-site cafe serving excellent food. Reviewers praised the welcoming and helpful staff, dog-friendly atmosphere, and beautiful river views. Facilities are basic but generally clean. Some visitors noted road and rail noise, a lack of showers during busy periods, and un-marked pitches. The site is considered good value for a short break or exploring the local area.

Lovely staff and great food in the cafe. Location good.
Anonymous Electric optional grass pitch
Liked The staff were very helpful and friendly. Came and introduced selves when we were set up. Breakfast in cafe was amazing. Location is good. Near the river and a nice pub.
Disliked The road was very noisy and there is a very loud train track, had freight trains until early hours the Friday night. A little too basic for us. Ground was very hard due to the prev hot weather which is not the campsites fault.
