What customers say
This campsite offers spacious, peaceful pitches with a friendly, accommodating owner named Val. Facilities are generally clean, with electric hook-ups available. It's well-located for exploring the area, with a village and pub within walking distance. While the site is praised for its quiet atmosphere and ample space, some visitors noted that the toilet and shower facilities are basic and could be improved, particularly regarding capacity and consistent availability of essentials like toilet roll and soap.

Recommended. Clean and level.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Big flat field. Can park next to pitch. Easy to find and well signposted. Friendly owner. Clean toilet block. Quiet (I was the only person staying) Hedges hide the field well from the passing cars. Horses in the next field. Lots of paths nearby.
Disliked Traffic noise as next to the road but luckily not many cars late at night. No footpath to the nearby village but not their fault. No phone signal at all.

Liked We loved the simplicity of the PARK and the warm welcome from Joy, who came round every morning and evening to make sure everyone was happy. We really enjoyed the free use of a fire pit and the wood was very reasonably priced.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Location is great and even though the facilities are basic(2 x toilets/2 x showers) they are clean and everything you need. Fire pits to borrow and logs to purchase at £5(large bag). Val and her Daughter were constantly walking around to see if everything was ok and if anyone needed any assistance.
Disliked The site is currently in the planning phase for an upgrade for their facilities which include improved showers/toilets and the addition of a dish washing facility.
