Liked: Lovely and quiet. Ted, the owner was very friendly and attentive. Great location for walks. Nice level pitches.
Disliked: Limited toilet and washing facilities. Pitching area linear along wall, very long grass everywhere else so little choice of where to pitch.

Liked: Beautiful location, the field has plush soft grass and a great view of the mountains. A little stream at the bottom and lots of chickens and geese too! Rudimentary campsite, kind of like wild camping but with a tap and a porterloo! Would go back for sure!! Friendly welcome and peaceful site.

Liked: Everything about the site was nice, Ted the owner is lovely. However. Upon unpacking, I discovered I had left my tent poles at home. Time was running so I quickly departed and found an hotel. Sorry I didn't let Ted know.
