What customers say
This is a peaceful, rural campsite with a strong focus on nature and animals, including free-ranging chickens and ducks, and nearby cows. Guests consistently praise the exceptionally friendly and helpful owner, James, who goes above and beyond. Pitches are spacious, many with fire pits and seating. While facilities are basic, many find them clean and adequate. Some mention the ground can get boggy when wet. Plans for future development are noted.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)
Liked A lovely site that I would love to revisit! James was very friendly and helpful, and his instructions made the site easy to find.
The curious chickens were entertaining and I enjoyed just watching the cows and their calves in the field opposite.
This was my first time solo camping and I would definitely recommend to others looking to do the same.

From the manager: Unfortunately I expected this after I at to ask them to put the dog back on the lead and caught them burning anything and everything on the fire pit, when I over a fair package of firewood at a fair price and do say that is all that should be used.
It’s a back to basic campsite toilet and cold water wash area. So facilities and activities don’t really count and I also don’t offer WiFi.
Unfortunately you can’t please everyone, yet if you read the other comments you will see I do and try my best look after you all.
