Liked The farm has loads of room for kids to run around and play, there are also a couple of swings on a tree in the campsite that kept my son busy for ages. The walks around the ponds are lovely and quiet, but there were a lot of biting insects, which is to be expected on a farm in the summer, so pack bite spray if, like me, you're prone to being bitten. It was only a short walk through the fields to the local pub which is also quiet and friendly, and serves great food. All the facilities here are clean and well maintained. Also, they are located close to the campsite, so you don't have to walk really far in the dark for a late night wee. We also enjoyed the friendly farm dogs who popped in and out of the campsite, my son loved playing fetch with them, and one came and relaxed by our campfire one evening. Overall, we had a wonderful few days at Moonfleet, and we would definitely visit again.
