A true gem - clean facilities, spacious and beautiful animals/views.
Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked What a gem! Beautiful location in the hills with a stunning view, the toilet and shower blocks were impeccably clean and a warm welcome from Graham. The added bonus of the free-roaming alpacas, ducks and peacocks made this place even more magical. Perfect pit-stop for us travelling up from London to Glasgow. 10/10!

Beautiful site, friendly owners, spectacular views!
Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked The site was easy to find using the instructions provided by the hosts. The owners were lovely and helpful on arrival.
We found the site to be spacious and peaceful. The site is a little uneven in some areas but we managed to find a lovely flat spot that had spectacular views.
The facilities were clean and well stocked with ample hot water from the showers. The compost toilets are probably some of the cleanest compost toilets I've ever used!
We didn't use the communal fire pits or the seating areas but they were a good option to have and if we were there longer we probably would have done.
The free roaming alpacas and peacocks add a touch of whimsy to an already lovely site. We also had a visit from a very cute and friendly little cat (that we presume is the owners).
The peacocks were shedding feathers and the owners kindly let us take some home with for crafts, which was the cherry on top to be honest.
Thank you for such a great stay. We will definitely be returning!!

Amazing campsite with animals
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Loved the area, drive to congleton, animals on site (alpacas, peacocks, ducks, and in the glamping area they have meerkats, wallabies). Really low key area, nice view over a city, easy to drive on and pitch up. Pete was so friendly and kind. Would definitely come back!! Very impressed with the toilets - there was never any bad smell. Showers there and you can rent a fire pit and buy fire logs, kindling and fire starters. 11/10!
