Tennis Wells non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: the views / not crowed / the simplicity / the local pub / the lake or reservoir and surprisingly the buck shower, although they need to clean out the shower heads as it runs very slowly. And pleanty of space.....
Disliked: none really except shower heads but that was very minor
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review, we're now thinking about a mesh top to the bucket shower to stop the leaves falling in!
Lovely campsite but expensive for minimal facilities.

Liked: Lots of space to camp. The reservoir was lovely. Very clean portaloos.
Great to be able to have fires.
Very friendly staff.

Liked: Great location and pitch, with a lovely pub in walking distance. We didn't even go swimming/sup on the reservoir as it was tipping with rain but had a great time at the campsite.
Lots of beautiful villages and towns in the area with plenty to do.

Struttons non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: I decided to take my 10 year old son for a nights camping last minute and found Wild Combe and decided to give it a go as it advertised 'water sport' and camp fires.
The site is large and spread over a couple of fields. Mid week there were around 8 other campers families with small kids. Very friendly welcome and plenty of firewood for the evening at the eleven pounds including firepit (reasonable)
We inflated a couple of canoes and took to he water around 9am and we were joined by others on paddle board. The revisor is bigger than it looks on from the bank once you're on the water and big enough for a couple of hours paddling and eating the kingfisher dart around the bank.
Decided not to brave the 'bucket showers' on site but they did look clean as were the 'Loo s for Do's' withe plenty of hand sanitiser and toile paper.
Great site and a wonderful impromptu night star gazing. Would highly recommend and we plan to return.
