What customers say
This adult-only site offers a peaceful retreat with spacious, level pitches and excellent facilities. Guests consistently praise the exceptionally friendly and helpful warden, Ralph. The adjacent White Swan pub receives high marks for its good food, welcoming atmosphere, and dog-friendly policy. Additional nearby amenities include an Indian restaurant and river walks. While generally well-maintained, some minor improvements to shower size and cleaning frequency have been noted.

Liked Nothing
Disliked Booked 2 nights as a midway stopover after a Santander to Portsmouth ferry trip on our way back to Scotland. Ferry was cancelled so had to make alternative plans to get back to the U.K. Followed website instructions and emailed campsite. Asked if they had availability for alternative days. They didn't have the decency of a reply.

Liked Wonderful site. The setting is really well laid out, easy to find and solid hard standing given we stayed over New Year.
Site manager was incredibly helpful and the location is just behind a village pub that we visited three times, also getting a warm welcome from them.
Can’t fault this site, recommend to use.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Are whole stay was very peaceful and relaxing.
The facilities were very clean and modern.
A gentleman called Ralph welcomed us into the park and was very friendly and helpful.
We forgot a couple of things before leaving and Ralph let us borrow the items from his own caravan.
The White Swan pub was fantastic and staff there were very friendly and welcoming.
We ate there and my partner said it’s one of the best steaks she’s ever had.
Looking forward to our next stay there.
