Scenery second to none

Disliked If you don’t like cats be aware - farm cats means that there no mice so it’s a bonus!
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Glad you enjoyed a peaceful stay. Our aim is for guests to leave feeling relaxed, refreshed and reinvigorated. We do have a lot of cats our own and strays. If you do not want them near you bring a dog or hiss at them to make them go away.
Idyllic location, perfect for escaping the busy world.
Electric gravel motorhome pitch
Liked Beautiful site with stunning views that go on for miles. Great location with plenty to do. The site itself was perfect. Such a quiet site with immaculate toilets and shower. The owners were lovely and very helpful. My boys loved the cats on the farm. Highly recommend if you're looking for a relaxing stay. We will definitely be back.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We will be pleased to welcome you back. Our cats follow me around so think it's part of their duty to welcome guests too. For anyone who does not like cats around a quick hiss or growl let's them know they are not welcome.
Really great find. Takes 1 night bookings which was great for us.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. Wifi is not great although phones have a good four g signal on Vodafone network. Hopefully fibre is not too long getting to us and the signal will improve and a booster will be used to cover the glampong site.
Excellent small site to stay at with farm views
Electric gravel campervan pitch
Liked Location, views, host, farm animals, facilities. Great little site to stay at
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review. A farmyard tour can be arranged on arrival or a landscape walk with nature around the farm. So if you want to know how we care for our animals and work with nature in a sustainable and regenerative way speak to me after settling in.
Lovely little site with clean facilities and stunning views.
Electric gravel campervan pitch
Liked Lovely, rustic site with the most stunning of views. Surrounded by fields full of sheep and cows. Very clean toilets and showers. Lady owner who was so friendly and welcoming. It was so peaceful. A perfect site for us. We were lucky enough to wake up as the sun was rising over the hill tops and got to watch the farm dog doing her work. Will 100% come back if we’re back in the area.
Disliked Lots and lots of cats. Which overall weren’t a problem, but more unexpected. We’re just not cat people. But they were very friendly. Everything else was just great.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review we will be pleased to welcome you back. We have quite a few of our own cats and strays seem to turn up too. Two or three consider our glamping site their territory and are very friendly.
Excellent site with great facilities for a romantic break away.
Owl Hoot camping pod
Liked Loved the owl hoot pod. Located in a beautiful setting, we loved how romantic it was. The pod was extremely well equipped with everything you could wish for including a fridge, toaster, kettle, rice cooker, microwave, air fryer, cutlery, plates, glasses, bedding, towels, you name it this pod had it. An especially nice touch was a bottle of wine in the pod on our arrival. Highly recommend staying here, we're greeted by the host who was very warm, friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be staying again soon.
