Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: We loved the views and how we could choose our own pitch, each pitch had a fire bucket as well which was great. It was a very peaceful place.
Disliked: Our only concern was the dogs running freely, the website says all dogs must be kept on a lead at all time. The farm dogs were running freely which is understandable but other guests didn’t adhere to the rules and also had their dogs running freely. Our dog is fairly reactive so this caused us a few issues. The water in the toilet block was also cold which wasn’t amazing when the weather is cold but it’s understandable and didn’t affect our stay, just something to be wary of when booking. We struggled pegging our tent down in the grass due to stones underneath however that could have been the pitch we chose.

Liked: Location was good.
Disliked: Upon arrival nobody was there to greet us waited half an hour and called the number a few times.
The grounds were just littered with dog dirt you couldn’t walk in the grassed area in front of the cabins at all.
The cabins are very close together and therefore we could hear every thing when people sat outdoors at their fire pits. Carriages not insulated and it was very cold in the night. Carbon monoxide alarm supplied as cabin had an indoor log burner but didn’t have a battery in.

Liked: We loved waking up to the cows, the birds, the dogs, and the horses. The hosts were very lovely people, who kindly shared their way of living with us. We have massive respect for what they do, you can see how hard they work on their farm. Very friendly folk indeed! Facilities- you have everything you need!

Liked: Third time on this site but this time we opted for the cabins. Loved the space - 3 beds, table and drawers, wood burner and kettle provided. Much more comfortable to come back to after getting soaked, to warm up
This time around the owners had added privacy curtains in the shower room rather than an open bench, as well as extra sockets for charging phones
As always, the camp is quiet and calm (except for the farm animals which is not a complaint!) Basic facilities but all you need really to unwind and enjoy the views!
There were some days we didn't cross paths with anyone at all on the site, so great for introverts like us.
