What customers say
This is a friendly and well-maintained site praised for its peace and quiet. Its excellent location offers easy access to a well-stocked Co-op, a pub, and takeaways, all within walking distance. While basic, the site is clean, and guests particularly highlight the helpfulness and welcoming nature of the staff, especially James. Some guests noted the absence of shower facilities and occasional issues with electricity metering or pitch levelling. The site manager has addressed concerns regarding children on an adults-only site and safety, stating measures in place.

Anonymous Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Peace and quiet
Disliked Didn’t feel safe as a single camper. No explanation on how I could leave if I needed to, not just at night, other than ask the warden in his caravan on site, would have preferred a code to get out if necessary.

From the manager: I'm totally shocked anyone could say they didn't feel safe this park is nestled in a quiet village setting fabulous location we have never had a problem and neither has anyone else who's stayed on the park also you don't need a code to leave the park because the gate is opened by a security sensor when you get close this also makes the park safer,
Will not return

Liked Well maintained site
Disliked Booked 4 Nights adults only site as schools were breaking up for the summer.
The first evening we discovered the owner was allowing children on site when I asked the site warden about it he said he said there was nothing he could do.
We packed up and left next morning
No refund was given

Nice staff, quiet site, no facilities. Nearby pub restaurant excellent
Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked We really enjoyed our stay here but more due to an excellent pub and restaurant being a short walk from the campsite. There is also a supermarket just next door which is incredibly well stocked. The campsite itself is quite basic but very well cared for and we watched a beautiful sunset over the nearby fields. The staff were super friendly and helpful and the place was very clean. As disclosed there are no showers / toilets on site though we did have electric hook up.
Disliked Quite pricey for a site with no facilities.
