Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Level ground, lots of space, unmarked, unlimited pitch size. Remote and peaceful. Friendly owner. Shower works very well.
Disliked: Toilets are flushed with sewage waste which is pungent and dangerous and there is no plan to change this. Shower cabin is in bad condition particularly the shower tray hence plenty of scope for harbouring bacteria etc. I'm not fussy regarding camping facilities but have to give this 1 star due to health and safety reasons even though the field and location is great.

From the manager: We are soory to read your comments but the toilets are not flushed with sewage waste, they are connected to mains water. If there was a temporary problem was it brought to attention to rectify? This is a temporary site so toilets/showers also have to be temporary, the other option being portaloos, which are found to be less satisfactory as no running water for handwashing.

Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Found the site with toilets and showers but there was nobody else there just an empty field so moved on and found another site
Disliked: As a lone female I didn't feel safe on my own in the field
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: So sorry that you felt alone. As a temporary site, we can't be in the field 24 hours a day. However, it is adjacent to the farmhouse so there is someone there throughout the night, we were probably out working. As we are temporary, we open and close, and you may have been the first arrival on a new opening day. The weather is dreadful at present, so there are fewer visitors at present everywhere and all the local camp sites are quieter.than usual. Hope that you enjoyed the area, wherever you stayed.

Liked: Lovely location in a quiet, flat field, lovely friendly owner. Plenty of space. Nice porta cabin toilets, well kept with hot water & soap - we saw the lady in and out 2 or 3 times in the evening cleaning/mopping them round. Waste disposal & water taps.
Disliked: Showers were OK, in a porta cabin but cold water & no light. To be fair this is our first camping holiday, so have nothing to compare with expectation-wise.

From the manager: Hi, thank you for your comments and glad that you liked the area. Sorry that the showers seem to have been cold when you used them, as it is a pop up site, we are only able to have temporary facilities. I can only think that the gas must have run out when you used the showers and that no one had told us, as the bottle does have to be manually changed when it is empty. No light - we provide battery lights and torches but these do get removed by visitors, so this must have been the case when you visited.
Perfect quite campsite with loads of room
