From the manager: Hi Kelly, thank you for your feedback - we have made improvements to the site this year - ensuring the toilets are more central to the camping field and ensuring the grass is freshly cut. We are a quiet, family friendly site and do our best to maintain this. We hope we get chance to welcome you again this season. Take care, Joe & Robyn

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Lovely no frills campsite in a beautiful location. We pitched towards the top of the field for the better views. Such a scenic and tranquil place. There was only one other tent so it was almost like wild camping! Joe was so friendly and welcoming. Toilets were clean. We would definitely return.
Disliked: The field is quite uneven but we were fine on an airbed. The midges were horrendous! We got over 59 bites each but this is natures fault, not the sites!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: The site is in a stunning setting, the owners are really helpful and friendly and it’s not an overcrowded site.
Disliked: A lot of the site is on quite an incline so if you want a level pitch it’s not that. There are some fairly flat areas that are fine though.

From the manager: Thank you so much for this review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we really do hope to see you again soon. Take care Joe and Robyn
