Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: A friendly, beautiful, relaxing campsite. The views were stunning, close to some really wonderful walks, right to the Tera falls and left to the lake, and I felt safe and peaceful. Amazing being able to sit under a blanket of stars too on the clear nights. It was the haven I needed and I was so grateful that I found it. The sheltered eating area was a great addition and easy access to a water tap on each patch. Everything was extremely clean - hot running water, showers were fab, toilets were clean and close to each pitch, and the outside washing was great too. It was the first time I'd gone camping alone, the team were friendly and so were all the other people onsite. Great having the fish and chip shop too and the store. The sheep were amusing to watch in the field next door also! Will definitely return and so grateful for the perfect stay.
Disliked: My phone signal was just too good!!

Liked: Really lovely site. Fab park, beautiful lake views and really clean and modern showers and toilets. Nice shop, we went on a Monday so chip shop, cafe and games rooms were all closed. But bet they are fab bonus when open. We came in our vw campervan. Big level pitch close to the reception. Lots of space to walk the dog. Would definately return.
Disliked: Nothing to not like, we only stayed one night.
