Wudu Woodland non-electric grass and earth tent pitch
Liked: Maria and David were fabulous hosts. They got us all involved in feeding, grooming and caring for the animals which was magical for my children (age 12 and 8) who learned so much and their confidence around the animals really grew. We loved the rural setting, the peace, camping next to the cows, the woodlands onsite for the kids to play in. We loved meeting the animals - cows, llamas, sheep (Wanda is a darling), the goats and the naughty kids, the dogs (my daughter misses Zelda already), the horses, chickens and pigs. The facilities are basic but clean and functional. There’s an outside sink for washing up. Running (drinking) water available. I had worried about compositing toilets but there was no smell and they were clean. The showers are basic but blissfully hot!! The site was easy to find.
Disliked: Leaving to come home! We disliked absolutely nothing but If you want perfectly level pitches, parking spaces, flushing toilets and washing up blocks this is not the site for you. If you want a full farm experience and a rural rustic setting then you will love this.

Wudu Woodland non-electric grass and earth tent pitch
Liked: What an amazing campsite. We were offered the field or camping in the woods, hard to decide as the field was private, level and all ours on this occasion! The woods were idyllic, there were spaces for tents right there under the trees, hung up was a canopy and under it a place for a bonfire and a circle of tree stumps/log seats and there was even evidence of fairies 🧚 Both were near the off-grid facilities - compost loos, hot showers and wash up area. Beautiful walks leading right past the campsite and if you like geocaches and pubs like us there are plenty in the area (would recommend the Devil's steps walk to the Black Lion and the Steam Railway). Lots of farm animals, a shop (we didn't go in this time) and the converted bus/caravans for hire looked like they'd be fun to stay in. Owner friendly and helpful. Will be back.
Disliked: Nothing (but bring insect repellent, I got a few bites - obviously not campsite's fault 😊)

Liked: One of the best places I have camped for...since ever. Very friendly and absolutely amazing pitches in the woodland. Very relaxing and we even got to feed and care for some of the animals on the farm in the evening which my little one loved. Will be back again this summer!
