Liked: Perfect for what it is. No fuss, standard back to basics camping! Toilet facilities are basic, but it is camping after all! Friendly staff, and although not used, did see the bar and campfire circle on site.
Disliked: Basic toilets, but it is what it is for back to basics camping!

From the manager: We are sorry that you felt that the back-to-basics camping experience we offer is... too basic. We're glad you enjoyed the open space we offer, though, and we are able to offer this by not having a toilet block every ten yards. Most campsites, in fact most tents, do not offer en suite toilet facilities, for obvious reasons. Having said this, our flushing, clean and dry toilets are adjacent to the camping field on a lit path, not 'in the bushes' as you seem to have experienced - perhaps you just went the wrong way. Perhaps you have enjoyed better toilet facilities at other campsites, but the very inexpensive prices we charge our campers unfortunately prohibit us from offering marble surfaces, a toilet attendant providing colognes and perfumes, or a teleport system so you can beam directly from your sleeping bag straight onto the bog.
Lovely, laidback site with a friendly welcoming atmosphere.

Liked: The laidback yet warm and welcoming atmosphere was lovely for our first time camping together! Fire pits were a fab addition (meaning that we didn’t need to take our own!). The bar was a fully functioning set up with contactless payment which was a bonus!
Disliked: The toilets are a little far if you’re going in the dark from the pitch but can cope with a torch!

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: Described as "Rural, back to basics camping in beautiful countryside." It was beyond basic, the facilities were dreadful. The field was party central with booming music from drunken groups.

From the manager: We have fresh spring water, permanent toilets and portaloos. We have a snack bar serving hot and cold food, drinks and refreshments and a 17th-century style inn on site. Not to mention some of the most beautiful countryside and well-tended land in Yorkshire, including a nature reserve and a lake. That's pretty good facilities for a back-to-basics campsite, and certainly not 'dreadful' by mistake people's standards. There are plenty of friendly staff around if any campers are not behaving well (our policy is no amplified music or rowdy behaviour on the fields) that you can approach with any complaints.

Liked: Loved everything. The site was super nice with a few different choices for where to pitch (they had a nice quiet field with more trees for example). The toilets were clean and the bar was really quirky and nice. Really great for my little boy and in a beautiful location. I will be returning for sure!
