Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Fantastic quiet site in the countryside. Perfect base for local walks.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Oh my what a fabulous location! Stunning views across rolling hills, cattle fields and down into Market Harborough. Perfect place to wake up and eat breakfast while lapping up the beauty of the countryside.
Hosts are so friendly and welcoming, suggesting local walks etc.
Disliked Slightly odd charging system as we booked one tent pitch and one touring pitch, both non electric. One had to pay extra for dogs, the other didn't.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked What a lovely campsite! I watched the sunset on the left and the moonrise on the right with the twinkling lights of Market Harborough between. The owners are lovely, and, best of all, they even sent a map of local walks and footpaths. I did the longest walk this morning. The landscape is exquisite--lots of old trees and beautiful undulating grassland, steeped in the archaeology of ancient farming systems. Lots of wildlife too.

Liked The view and position of the site is excellent. Easy going no nonsense quiet site . Everything you need, water and electric, toilet disposal point. Bear in mind it is a farm so make sure you open gates and close them behind you. Loved it.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Loved the peace and quiet of the location with fabulous views. The owners were lovely and left us in peace to enjoy our stay. We could pitch wherever we wanted on the tent field which was great and water taps nearby. Portaloo toilet was a short walk from the field and always clean. Cellular signal was great so didn’t try the WiFi.

Excellent site with spectacular views.
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked What a find! Such a peaceful setting with a spectacular view!
Lovely space for dog walking!
Beautiful countryside and lovely clean air.
Helpful, friendly owners.
EHU and water on very spacious grass pitches.
Thank you!
Disliked Not really a dislike, but something to be aware of. The harvest of the adjacent field occurred during our stay. This didn't cause a problem for us, we simply went indoors to avoid crop dust for a short while. But it might be a problem for some.
As the crop field is just over the hedge, we assume that it might be sprayed with pesticides regularly, so that might be an issue for some, or if your stay coincides with any spraying.

Easy to find, quiet, level pitch with really helpful hosts.
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked This farm is SO quiet and relaxing! Jo was fantastic at helping us out when we forgot to take matches. She even offered to bring us tea! However, with the matches she supplied, we were able to try out making tea and breakfast ourselves. It was our first time camping, so it meant a lot to us that Jo made things much easier. Thank you!
Disliked Nothing about this field could be disliked. A shower might have been nice but we knew before booking that there were no showers and this was reflected in the price.
