Disliked: No chemical loo disposal. Traffic noise.

From the manager: Thanks for the review. We are a small farm providing some informal pitches, not a full blown campsite. Thank you for pointing this out as it's useful for others so they know what to expect. Thanks for stopping and hope you stay again ☺️

From the manager: Thanks for the review it always helps people know what to expect.. As you arrived very late unfortunately I didn't get chance to meet you in person. But you had full instructions on the site via a welcome text and we had talked on the phone about late arrival and I said that would be fine. I also said to phone again if you need anymore help. I don't think we therefore warrant a 2 for friendliness. We are a tiny (4 pitch) basic site (as described) on a small farm. I think by untidy you mean the wild flowers and plants that we allow / encourage to grow for the bees, birds and general wildlife. Our site is not for everyone and at £20 we are the cheapest in Northumberland. If you want dedicated formal pitches and facilities you need to look for a more expensive commercial campsite in future.

From the manager: I always ask if people are happy with the animals and offer parking away from them if preferred. We are not a campsite but offer basic facilities. I'm sorry you didn't enjoy your stay on the farm.
Great nights stop over, clean tidy site. Facilities ok functional
