Bradshaw Farm

Liked The farmer was really helpful and accommodating. He went out of his way to show the children the animals and tractors. I was worried about staying because of some reviews but honestly it was fab. Also provided paddling pools for the kids.

Disliked Toilets. But this wasn't their fault as a guest was putting nappies in there. They could do with a couple more though.

Liked An absolute gem of a find. Cheap for what you get which is a great pitch and a quiet field.

Are there teething issues yes but this is their first year doing this and from what I heard from the farmer (Richard) they have got some great plans for the coming years.

Will I be coming here again, yes I will 👍🏾

Liked We had the most incredible time. Honestly could not have asked for more friendly hosts. Nothing was too much to ask. We felt so welcomed there. The campsite was perfect for what we wanted. We've just booked to go back... See you in a couple of weeks!

Disliked We disliked having to leave! We didn't want to go home!

Liked The hosts were just fantastic - so friendly and happy! My kids loved the open field where they played cricket and rounders. The size of the tent was really amazing and we had a really relaxing day. The farm shop was great and the farmer made a smashing cup of tea! Just wanted to say sorry to the hosts for leaving muddy footprints in the tent- we tried to clean them up but ran out of wipes! Loved the experience overall.

Disliked The flashing fairy lights behind our tent were a little annoying but we understood why they were there.

Liked I booked an unfurnished bell tent as I was in the area with my 13 year old son and we needed somewhere to stay for three nights. The tent was big and clean and we had brought a couple of old double mattresses with us that we put on the floor. We were out all day and evening, returning in the evening for an hour to shower and change before going out again.

The single shower on site had hot water, reasonable pressure and was clean enough considering it's a campsite - so we were reasonably happy with the facility.

There was loads of space as this is a big field. The grass is cut short and the ground reasonably flat and level. We didn't do anything onsite apart from sleep and shower, although we could easily have cooked with our gas stove had we needed to. I also carry a generator in the van although we didn't use it on this occasion.

Our three night stay was cheap, and was good value for money as it was exactly what we required. I would stay here again and have already recommended it to friends who have used it since; mostly bikers and van lifers that want somewhere to park up for a night or two when in the area.

I found the owners to be honest, helpful and pleasant to chat with.

Disliked Not really a dislike, more of an oversight...the lights in the shower room are the solar type garden lanterns (which are rubbish) so you are changing and showering in the dark - which was a bit of a pain! The shower is electric so it should be easy enough to spur off and fit a proper light so that you can see what you're doing.

Liked The location of this campsite was really good - set on a quiet farm field away from the main road, quite peaceful at night (just campers next to us were bit loud till late hours). We stayed in a bell tent which was great value for money and cleaned inside. With some candles and plenty of cushions we brought along, it felt really cosy and homely.

That said, there are a few things that could make the experience even better, which I highlight in disliked section.

Generally speaking, it’s a site with potential, and with a bit more attention to facilities and upkeep, it could be a really great place to stay (I'm saying that comparing to the other sites I've stayed at this year)

Disliked There were only two portaloo toilets for the whole site, and unfortunately they weren’t very clean during our stay. For one night stay - we managed, but I can't imagine use them while camping more days... The shower area was completely dark (and not clean either), even in the daytime, so a torch is essential. The farm surroundings looked a little neglected, with all dried plants and general mess, which gave us the impression – despite the site being new on Pitchup – that it wasn’t being kept on top of, or owners simply gave up.. We visited mid-season, but it felt more like the end of October in terms of upkeep. My daughter was hoping to see some farm animals, but we weren’t sure if visitors were allowed in certain areas as there was no one around in the farm shop to ask. Also, while the site is fairly large, the bell tents are pitched so close together, so a little more space for privacy would be a big improvement (especially when campers having inflatable pools for kids)

Liked Lovely area, nice views. Clean and spacious bell tent. Friendly owner. Very affordable.

Disliked Two portaloos for a busy campsite. Shower room sink had no running water and was a little grubby. Wasn't clear where we were supposed to check in upon arrival. Bell tents are very close together.

From the manager: You are welcome to your opinions, which are in the minority. This is a new site and lots to get sorted out, most people would give constructive criticism which we are very open to - why creep off the site and write awful things on your keypad ?- just because you can? Frankly can do without negative, mean minded people on our campsite.

Liked Everything!!
Lovely staff
Great site
Lovely views
Inflatable pool hire cheap!
All round great camping experience.

Disliked Loved everything!!
