Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Really nice place, we enjoyed especially the river. Close to hour houses. Plenty of spaces to camp. Bathrooms are good.
Disliked: Noise rules after 22 hrs, no enforced. People shouting, laughing for another couple of hours.

We had very nice stay, campsite is very spacious and peaceful
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: We came just for one night, first time with a big bee tent and zero experience with putting the tent up.....the campsite owner explained us everything and we also got a lot of help from our camping neighbours! Thank you for the warm welcome, we are much more confident now and we will definitely come back as the campsite is fantastic, location is just by the river, plenty of space, quite and peaceful.Thank you once again for help.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: - Lovely location
- Access to the river
- Plenty of room to choose from and explore
Disliked: Nothing in particular, but if I had to say...
- Not very well signposted, but perhaps intentional for security reasons
- Only one loo block but they are tidy and clean
- A tad on the expensive side for wild camping but I suppose you are paying for the river access. Could do with a few more facilities for the price perhaps.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The camping area was very quiet and was exactly as described, in the sense that it is a wild camping area with areas of long grass and quieter areas where you can feel at one with nature. We paddled in the river, played on the rope swing. We were lucky in that it was relatively quiet so we had a lot of privacy. I can imagine in busier times it could be quite crowded.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, glad you had a great time. I'm pleased that you appreciated how quiet it was, we have increased our prices slightly, and reduced the quantity of pitches this year, so you pay a little bit more, but you have a lot less people and, you are more likely to get a nice riverside pitch! We've also introduced a 'No Loud Music' at any time rule... which also seems to be working very well. Thanks Again
An amazing chilled out (basic but fantastic) camping spot!

Really beautiful site, but very basic
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Beautiful place, in the middle of nature, right next to the river. Real wild camping
Disliked: A lot of big noisy groups playing loud music until after midnight and no one to tell people to be quiet despite the rules stating it should be quiet after 10pm.
No toilet paper and not a lot of cleaning. Not really anyone to manage the site.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, we do not allow loud music at any time of the day. The site manager is on site at all times, every customer is sent his number as part of the welcome text, if you reported a problem then it would be dealt with. Thanks again
Great value peace and quiet with a nice river to dip in - 9/10
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: A lovely riverside campsite that we have visited numerous times. Toilets were generally good (take some loo roll just in case), and the addition of the shower is a nice touch.
Disliked: It's a shame the woodfire pizzas they were serving last year didn't last.

Wonderful and perfect for what I needed. Thank you..
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Everything. Place was great with amazing views of the river. Pizza freshly cooked was stunning. People on reviews moaned about the toilets but they were cleaned constantly. Chatted to the people who work there and they were very friendly and welcoming. A very much needed relaxing break and I will be going again in the coming weeks as a tranquil switch off go to place.. 9.5/10.... Come on, no one gives a 10 but it's close 👍
Disliked: The free flowing river was cold...boiler could have been broken. Haha

From the manager: Thank you for your kind words John :)
As we’re 100% off-grid , the team work incredibly hard to deliver this service, but it’s nice to know that everything runs from solar, so our eco approach matches the beautiful countryside that we share with nature.
We will continue our organic approach to developing the site further so hopefully, next time you visit there will be some more additions.
Thanks Again
