Liked: The size and layout of the pitches, the beautiful setting, the rogue wandering sheep, the geese and the farm shop. The farmer was friendly as were the other caravan owners.
Disliked: Not a dislike but the only negative would be the dated toilet block, however it just seemed to fit in and was clean enough.

Liked: A beautiful location on a wonderful working farm! The walks from the campsite were many and varied, and there was a wonderful little farm shop on site selling most things you could need on a camping trip. Very friendly family running the place. Basic toilets, showers and wash room, but clean and with hot water.

Liked: Family of 4, children aged 6 and 3 years. Shower block ✔️ Toilets ✔️ Waste disposal ✔️ Very specious and we got to pick our own spot. Friendly owners. Working farm. Fantastic views. Lovely quaint farm shop for 'forgotten' essentials. Town centre 7 minute drive away. We have several family members looking at booking up and we will most definitely be staying again and for longer
Disliked: Things that can't be changed, ie. noisy neighbours, very wet weather, own children arguing 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ haha!
