What customers say
This is a small, quiet campsite with spacious, level pitches and good facilities, including clean showers and toilets located behind the adjacent pub. Many guests praised the peaceful atmosphere, beautiful views, and the excellent food and friendly service at The Fox Inn pub, which is a significant draw for visitors. While most reviews are highly positive, some mention occasional issues with bin emptying, shower cleanliness, and the distance to the toilets/showers across the road. The pub's limited opening hours are also noted.

Great for a stop over not to far off the beaten track

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked It was a spacious pitch with a nice new hook up , no water on the pitch it's self as far as I saw but water available.
I liked the fact that when I arrived there was no booking in faff just took a pitch of my choice
I am self contained so the fact that it was a bit of a walk to the facilities and it was raining hard I didn't go over but I'm sure they would be ok .
The eshan area within a good distance in the same field .
Disliked I don't have any dislikes as it would be unfair for me to comment as I didn't see all the features and the weather was horrendous so I didn't venture out I saw a quiet little village with a pub and a site that most likely would be great in the summer I will return no doubt .

Excellent site, clean facilities and beautiful views on a clear day.

Liked Spacious pitches on a well kept site. Very low noise pollution from the surrounding farms but wouldn't have minded either way. The shower and toilet facilities were of a high standard and having a clean and warm place to wash the pots was a bonus.
Really pleased with crossfell as our base for the week. We had no concerns about leaving our car at the site during the day or overnight. The pub was a stones throw and offered a lovely atmosphere.
The views were exceptional on a clear day.
Disliked We had a neighbour that would sit on the phone with their car running for extended periods in the morning and late evening which was the only negative.

Its more of a CL site than a caravan site as advertised. Such a shame

Liked Covenant for the M6.
Disliked No one was there when we arrived to book in. We had to telephone the site for information. We were then told that the pub across from the site was open from five for drinks and they were not serving food as advertised. Not where the toilets were, or how to get into them. We were also kept awake with everyone coming out of the pub at the back of twelve in the morning.
