From the manager: Thanks for your review and your visit to Primrose Smallholding Rebecca.
We really appreciate your feedback and we're glad you felt the site was very good value for money and clean. Regarding your comment about numbers, we don't restrict the number tents per booking plus we allow more than one vehicle because some families arrive separately. Even so I'm sure you agree there is still loads of room for campers and children to enjoy!

From the manager: Hana, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a nice a review. We have added a number of site facilities which you have mentioned based on customer feedback last year so we're happy you found these useful. With the scorching Bank Holiday weather you experienced (amazing wasn't it), the freezer and fridge was certainly well used! Like you, we felt the vibe over the whole weekend was really chilled! Come back anytime, and thanks again for visiting with your children.
Little gem of a campsite
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Great site, very spacious pitches, very friendly owners they could not of done anymore for everyone , games for everyone to use, clean facilities, small farm area for children to feed them each morning, gated so felt very safe for children.
Disliked One tiny issue, we would have liked the grass a bit shorter. But would not stop us coming back anytime.

From the manager: Hi Natasha, thank you for leaving us such a nice review, we genuinely appreciate that. I am glad you and your children had a lovely time with us and made use of the facilities.We currently use a tractor flail mower to cut the grass but it has been growing so fast in these ideal conditions! We hope to invest in a dedicated grass mower next year. Thanks for visiting, please do come back soon.
