What customers say
This is a small, peaceful campsite praised for its friendly and accommodating hosts, Jack and Mandy. Visitors highlight the beautiful rural location, excellent stargazing opportunities, level pitches, and clean facilities. Wi-Fi is available and generally works well. While generally well-received, some reviews mention the need for improved toilet facilities due to limited capacity and the shower being coin-operated. The site is considered ideal for relaxation and walks, though parents are advised to supervise children due to it being working farmland.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
A friendly small campsite
Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked What a lovely small family run campsite! Three toilets, hot shower and washing up and information covered area. Water was available at several points. The grass was well maintained, the pitches were flat and fire pits and wood available. Above all the unique hospitality of the owners was very much appreciated. Dogs and children were all well behaved and the pitches generously spaced out. The view was great too.
Disliked I had hoped to walk out more but there didn’t seem to be any clear footpaths, but a trek up the hill on the track that fords the stream is worth a climb for the view. In any case it was a heatwave so I didn’t want to walk out far. There was some lively activity from the neighbouring farm, but that may have been because it was half term. Otherwise it was lovely and quiet, not near any main roads. In fact there are only single track roads to the site, which some drivers might find tricky.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Lovely site, pitched on a flat field with buttercups, views of rolling hills and fields of sheep and lambs. Jack and Mandy, the owners, are lovely friendly people who have done their best to provide everything you might need - fridge, wash up area, shower, toilets, barbeque, fire pits, logs, charcoal. Happy to share local knowledge and point out lots of wild birds around site, red kites, woodpecker and goldfinches etc.

Excellent!
Non-electric grass tent pitch (backpacker, motorcyclist, no cars)
Liked Spacious pitches on a small and beautiful site. The owners couldn’t have been more helpful and even helped us when our blowup bed had a puncture. They now have three loos and the shower was lovely and hot. It takes £1 coins and lasts for 4 minutes. The area around is brilliant, with lots of walking, beautiful scenery and lovely villages nearby. Great pizzas at Daphne’s in Presteigne, 20 mins drive from the site.
