This family-run farm site offers a peaceful escape with spacious, well-mown pitches providing privacy. Visitors consistently praise the excellent, spotlessly clean facilities, including showers and toilets. The friendly, welcoming owners are a highlight, happy to share insights into farming and the local area. Guests appreciate the provision of cast iron cooking equipment and fire pits, along with picnic benches. The site's rural location offers abundant wildlife and access to walking trails.

Ready tent
Liked I would say 7.5 Great camp and nice clean showers and toilet facilities. Sad we could not have bbqs or the fire pit but no fault of the camp owners.
Disliked Tent did leak and I got wet all three nights as it rained during the night.

From the manager: Many thanks for your feedback, we are pleased you liked our site and facilities. We are sorry you could not have a fire, as our site is all about cooking on fire but the national Government ban and a very dry few weeks meant this would not have been safe. I was very sorry to hear you got wet, our safari tents are maintained to a very high standard and are double skinned over the sleeping dome which ensures there are no leaks, but if the window vents are left open rain will drive in via the mesh windows and this seems to be what happened.
Ticked all our boxes for a bit of mum son bonding time.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked - A true family run site on a genuine working farm.
- If you want to escape the usual cramped, noisy 'carparks' that are modern campsites then this is for you.
- Wildlife galore: we spotted hares, deer, muntjack, pheasant, partridge and, no end of other different birds.
- Only a few (9, I think) very generous pitches on the site, mown into a long grass/ wildflower field giving loads of space and privacy. All with picnic benches and firepit tripods.
- Chris, Judith and their family/colleagues were brilliant throughout, really friendly and chatty. Chris even showed us the turkeys he is rearing, talked to us about how he farms and all about the local area which was fascinating to both me and my 8 year old son.
- The facilities were spotless and having the barn with tables, chairs and, board games for the kids in a shady cool place to escape the heat was a welcomed touch.
- Cast iron cooking pots and pans and other utensils were available to use for free which (not having anything cast iron myself) made camp fire cooking that much better.
- Signposted walks are literally on Chris's farmland just meters from your tent and were great to explore the local country side on foot.
- We were also very fortunate in having lovely fellow campers who were excellent company.
- My son has already asked when can we go back and we only came home yesterday!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Such a great site! Really friendly welcome, the showers/toilets were always clean throughout our stay. Absolutely loved having the fire pit and bench! The pitches are nicely spaced out and loved that they are mown in. Everything looked exactly like the website (but better). Would definitely recommend and definitely come back!

Liked We had a great time at Fire and Feast, we loved wood fire cooking, it was great to have some cast iron pots to cook with. Kids loved how much space there was to run around in. It's a lovely quiet location.
