Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Brilliant campsite with a play park and animals. Very clean site and well managed. The site manager was brilliant, went out of his way (late in the evening) to help light our fire. Short drive to Blackpool (25mins) and local shops (5 mins drive away) Will be back to this site again, would definitely recommend

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Really relaxed atmosphere. Helpful staff
Disliked: Only a couple of minor issues that wouldn't stop us visiting again.. even though we are dog owners ourselves and are happy for people to let their dogs of the lead... the dog policy could do with looking at ... most people seemed to let the dog roam free not watching them... as a result there was quite a bit of dog poo in the wooded area. This site also says its "park at pitch" , which it isn't.. all cars have to be parked in the car park

Bell tent
Liked: Everything about the site. The bell tent was lovely, really comfortable and enough room for 5 of us. The fire pit was great as was the option to buy wood. The toilets and washing up area was spotless. The lay out was lovely with the board walk and fairy lights. The warden was really friendly and even brought us a wood delivery after the allocated hours. Thank you.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: The facilities were nice and very clean, with good hot showers. Loved the farm animals too - especially the pigs! We were allowed to pitch wherever we liked which was nice. We spent one night in the woods and one on the field. Both were lovely. There is also a nice pub (the Puddled Duck) only a 20 minute walk away, and nearby bus stops from which you can visit Blackpool and Knott's End.
Disliked: Unfortunately we shared the site with some very loud and obnoxious guests on the first night (Saturday). A group of girls were drinking and playing loud music till past 1am, and another group was generally very loud and rude. Can't really blame the owners for this, though they perhaps should have intervened at some point to either shut them up or throw them out.

Liked: Great break away for the switch on of the lights. Friendly staff and great facilities.
Disliked: You are on a farm so cockerels will wake you up early. Hot water did run out for around 12 hours not sure what happened.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Farm and site was small so kids could play in the woods and we could see them from the tent Toilets blocked by morning and owner was quick to unblock them in the morning. Camp fire & all you need available to hire £20 for fire pit then extra for wood and kindling. Easy to order a takeaway to site.
Disliked: Site seemed overbooked there was no space between each tent and hardly any space in the middle for kids to play. Cars have to be left on car park at the front of the site. You are camping on a farm so expect to be woken all night long by roosters! Unfortunately weather was bad, the ground was boggy and with no sleep because of the cock-a-doodle-doing all night long we decided to pack up and go home after one night!
