Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked As I was non electric I could park up anywhere on the field, there were no marked pitches which I like.
The toilets and showers have to be the cleanest I have ever seen.
Takeaway pizzas and burgers on the Saturday evening was so good, so you skip the extra pots for washing.
There were also picnic tables/benches available.
And as a solo female I felt really safe.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked In a camper-van, but without services. Close to the shower block which was pristine. In low season so v quiet - only a handful in the tent field. Appreciated that we could hire a fire pit, which is brought to the pitch if required. Cant fault the facilities & the backdrop is beautiful! Loved looking out at the surrounding scenery whilst we were there.
