What customers say
This is a well-maintained, peaceful campsite with spacious, level pitches. Guests praise the modern, clean toilet and shower facilities, and friendly, helpful owners. The site is secure with coded gate access and offers good dog walking areas. Some minor issues have been noted, such as shower temperature and electricity metering, but these are generally outweighed by the positive aspects. Many guests express a desire to return.

Lovely! I’ll be back!
Electric optional hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Everything was lovely! The campsite, the facilities the rubbish bins!! Really enjoyed the stay
Disliked There isn’t a sign to say please call when arrived with a number and you can’t drive close to the keypad as there’s a block in the way so you have to get out your car. Small things! No big issue
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your kind comments.
An email is sent out prior to arrival explaining to guests to phone on arrival.
The block is deliberately put next to the keypad to stop people driving up the kerb and on the verge. (yes, people do that!)
Over all it’s an excellent site, I would definitely stay there again.
Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked I stayed over the bank holiday weekend so the site was full for the first night and for a full site with lots of kids and groups there where no issues. There is plenty of space for kids to play. And the site as a whole works well.
Toilets and showers are modern with plenty of room in the cubicles for getting changed.
Disliked I think the functionality of only having two sinks in the toilet/shower block has been over looked. In the mornings it’s a bit chaotic when you have people trying to brush their teeth, whilst other people are trying to wash their hands. There is also not a lot of room to manoeuvre around people using the sink and people using the one mirror whilst you’re trying to exit. Time your morning trips well if the sites busy.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments.
I thought the bank holiday went well especially with the lovely weather.
Inevitably, the shower block gets busy. There is water outside to brush teeth if needed.

Friendly site with level pitches in a lovely, peaceful location ☺️
Anonymous Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Spacious, level pitches. Beautiful location - very peaceful with lots of wildlife to spot!
Facilities were clean and modern - accessible facilities too which we thought was a lovely addition.
Pay as you go electric was very easy to use & set up - refunded almost immediately when we left. Dogs are welcome and there is a nice dog walking path to follow on site too!
We’re looking forward to a return stay in the future ☺️
Disliked Our electric post didn’t work after a few hours - we managed to plug into an alternative for the night as it was quiet but when busy this would have been a problem.
Despite the facilities being clean and modern the shower wasn’t the best, seemed to be quite low water pressure.
No WiFi which would have been a great addition for a small site, this is preference however!

From the manager: Thank you for your comments.
The water in the showers is pumped, so cannot be improved upon.
The WiFi is bad in the area.
Great site
Anonymous Electric optional hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked My second stay here. Great pitches and facilities.
Despite being over the Bank Holiday weekend in May and the site was full there was no issue on availability of facilities or noise levels.
