Lovely, quiet site.
Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Pleasant owners and loved the morning visit from the farm dogs. Lovely quiet location. Grass pitches with EHU. Clean facilities and nice hot showers. Dark sky area.
Disliked Nothing about the site. Unfortunately some very noisy campers on our last day disrupted me and my son late into the night and early hours.

Amazing
Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Amazing time away yet again. Such a relaxing atmosphere where the kids can have fun and enjoy themselves.
We will be back next year.
Clean campsite with everything you need. Perfect for a get away to decompress from everyday stressors.
We had a strict rule of no technology throughout the day but WiFi was amazing for an evening for family movie time.

Electric optional grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked Absolutely lovely spot. Proper farm camping with beautiful views, 10 mins walk from the fox pub and very clean showers, and im extremely fussy on campsite showers.
Plenty of space for the kids to play, alovely big secure field for sog walking. Clive and Linda very welcoming and helpful. We will definitely stay there again.
Also a great base for so many things to do with the kids and dog in a 45 mins drive radius.

The poor cleanliness means we won’t be visiting this site again.
Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The location of the campsite was absolutely stunning, with picturesque views that made it feel like a real escape. The site itself was nicely presented and had a relaxed, peaceful atmosphere throughout our stay. It was also incredibly quiet, with only two other visitors during our four days there, which made for a very calm and enjoyable experience overall.
Disliked Unfortunately, the cleanliness of the facilities was very disappointing. The shower rooms and toilets were dirty, with visible cobwebs, spiders, and dust, suggesting that cleaning was infrequent. More concerning was the shared kitchen area. On arrival, there appeared to be rotting food scattered across the floor, and the bin was not emptied for at least two days. The smell was extremely unpleasant—strong enough to make you retch upon entering the building. This was a real shame, as it detracted significantly from an otherwise lovely setting.

From the manager: This is very disappointing!
The facilities are regularly checked, (at least twice a day) and we display signs asking guests to contact us if they're not happy with anything. Needless to say, these guests didn't raise any concerns during their stay.
We took a rare couple of days off so were away at the time but easily contactable.
The site was being managed / cleaned in our absence.
I won't apologise for spiders webs! We're in the country and can remove them daily only for more to appear the next day......
Peaceful rural site in great location

Liked Peaceful location, great views, beautiful walks nearby and a pub within walking distance too. The owner is very helpful. We love it here - it's our second visit and I'm sure we'll be back.

Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked An ideal place for families with children. The owners are friendly, there are plenty of animals around, and fishing ponds are nearby. A 10-minute walk or less than 5-minute drive takes you to The Fox Inn pub, where you can enjoy a delicious dinner.
You can book a billiards table or a pool on site.
