Liked: Really friendly owners. Called us straight after booking on Pitchup.com to let us know the arrangements for our stay. Came to check on us and help out those who were stuck in the mud after a huge rain storm. Lots of hot water for showers and washing up. Little shop on site with essentials, microwave and freezer. 10 min drive from Clovelly. Really enjoyed our stay, felt welcome and the dogs loved it too.
Disliked: Too many spiders in the loo!

Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Karen and Nick, owners, were very friendly and help, and did a tasty and good-value BBQ on Saturday pm which we enjoyed for both the food and the community spirit. The two toilets and one shower (for women, same again for men) were cute and had what was needed. Fairly well-placed for the SW Coast path!
Disliked: The noisy road right next to the site. The push- button showers were OK- nice and hot - but if the other shower is being used, or the washing up sinks, it impacted on the volume of shower. The onsite generator was loud...thankfully didn't impact us as we were in the non-electric field.

Electric grass pitch
Liked: Large level pitches. Well maintained clean site Good shower Good location for coast path.
Disliked: Charged and paid for electricity but generator was only on for a limited period of the day. We did not have a water point on our pitch, as advertised, despite paying for this extra. The A39 is busy and noisy. Two showers for size of site perhaps not enough

From the manager: Hi Jo So lovely to have met you and that you had a good time staying with us. So sorry for the limited electric totally out of our control but we did notify you prior your stay and you said you were fine with it. We don't and have never charged extra for water it is a set price for each pitch. Karen
A lovely site, plenty of space and friendly owners. Good location.
