Electric grass pitch
Liked: Large pitch with access to both electric and water and separated by hedges.
Clean toilets and showers and washing up area.
Toilet disposal too.
Shops and stalls in the Barn were lovely, as was the cafe above (pricey but very nice).
Disliked: Small sinks in toilets to wash in as facilities are unisex. Didn't want to have to shower every day.
Can imagine it being very busy in there in season.
No idea where to go or how to check in. Found a small printed sign on a door which basically said find somewhere to pitch up yourself.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: The location; nice quiet site, but with the farm shop on site, plenty of opportunities for food shopping and for breakfast/lunch on site.
Owners and other staff so passionate about what they have there; nice to see.
Farmer’s market was excellent!
Disliked: It was very quiet when we were there, but if full there would not be enough facilities for the number of people staying.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Good sized pitch
Access to water on each pitch
Good shower
Clean toilets and showers (except bucket of dirty mop water)
Plenty of hot water.
Disliked: No sinks for tooth brushing etc - just tiny sink in toilet cubicle with no mirror and soap dispenser in the way
Washing up area grubby
Lots of “stuff”left around - mainly items from the main retail business
No-one available to welcome arrivals. Had to just help ourselves.
Retail business clearly the priority - campsite felt like an afterthought.
