Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked We loved our stay here! The showers & toilets were kept very clean. Although we didn’t use the onsite kettle and microwave it was a very nice touch to have and have never seen this on a campsite before. We enjoyed the fresh coffee & pastries in the morning. The site itself was very well kept and the owners were lovely!
We would definitely stay here again.
Disliked Nothing!

Great place to visit
Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked We really loved how spacious the pitches were. The showers and toilets are very clean and there are plenty of them. Is a very quiet campsite ideal for couples. We loved the bakery on site as we got to taste some amazing croissants. The staff are very welcoming.
Disliked None.

Liked Quite small campsite and very quiet and peaceful. Pitches were large. Shower facilities were very clean and there was a good amount of them for the size of the site.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Great facilities with lovely hot water, very clean and plenty of space. Owner very helpful and when there was an issue with another pitch playing loud music, they quickly addressed this.
Disliked As the site was quiet, the same family used the space to constantly kick footballs which caused a couple of near misses of people, vans and tents. I see on the website there is a field available for ball games, perhaps they could have been asked to use this.

From the manager: Thank you for your great review, we are sorry you had an issue with a family playing football, as you say we have a recreational field for ball games and we ask our customers to use this so as not to disturb fellow campers. Best wishes, David and Emma

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Everything! Really well laid out site with mixed camping, static vans, yurt and shepherd’s hut. We appreciated the grass was kept short and that the clippings were collected. A lot of sites leave them and then they get into the van on our shoes!
We also liked the option to order pastries for breakfast and lunch.
The loo and showers were very good too.
A lovely camping environment.
Disliked Nothing.
The only thing to mention here is that we couldn’t get a tv signal. It didn’t worry us but if tv is important to you, this may be an issue.
