Electric optional grass pitch
Liked: Incredibly peaceful! There's only a handful of pitches, each very large and spacious, with views of the pond and the old church across fields. Metal fire pits provided and there's a couple of picnic benches there too. Clean (and warm!) shower and kitchen area with kettle, microwave and fridge. They provide leaflets setting out a number of walks in the area - we did walks 1 and 2 which loop through the rewilding area of the estate. A couple minutes drive to some nice pubs, and the fantastic Duration brewery is just 15 mins away by bicycle (or about an hour's walk). If you're looking for a good basic and peaceful campsite to get away from it all and into nature, this place is perfect. We'll definitely come back here!
Disliked: Struggling to think of anything remotely negative about this place... But the firewood we bought from the campsite (£5 in the honesty box) was a bit damp and smoky, but then it has been very wet the last few weeks!

Liked: Lovely small and peaceful farm site. Nature walks nearby were beautiful and even spotted a green woodpecker from the door of our tent. Good clean facilities, didn't use the shower but looked immaculate. Having a kettle available in the wash block was very handy as we were staying in colder weather.

Liked: Great location good facilities very peaceful
Disliked: Grass over grown Resident dogs allowed to roam free, completely friendly. However, witnessed them fouling on and around pitches, meaning, having to clean up after them so children had a clean area to play.

Liked: Peaceful, nice owners, shower, loo, and kitchen on site. We went when it was still very wet and they put us on a solid track which was great and we could still reach the electric and water. Great view of the manege. Amazing walks round the West Acre ReWilding area right on the property spent some lovely time with the wild Exmoor ponies they have living there. Walkways over the wet bits too. Would recommend The Stag pub a ten minute drive away. Twenty minute drive to either Swafham for the market, and Snettersham Beach which was all but abandoned! Will definitely go back.
Disliked: I didn't find any toilet disposal facilities so we could empty the cassette, but also didn't ask!
