Wonderful three days. We'll be back
Non-electric grass and earth tent or motorhome pitch (wild)
Liked Beautiful farm with a river to swim in. Lots of birds, and plenty of space to park on the 200 acre site. The dog absolutely loved it, and spent three days with his nose on the ground looking for pheasants.
Disliked Nothing really. Maybe they could cut some of the branches back on the tracks so they didn't scratch the vehicles.

We would return if in the area again
Non-electric grass and earth tent or motorhome pitch (wild)
Liked Freedom to park anywhere, so much space you can avoid people. We ended up on hill side which did limit where you could actually pitch due to slope, another time I think I would explore flatter option in fields along river.
If we had arrived earlier I may have spent more time driving around and exploring options,
Fire pits to use - no fee
To know that they were available to give a tow out if needed, it’s great to pitch where you like but potential to get stuck when not very experienced driving a new big heavy van
