Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Overall our stay was good, the field is nice and spacious, the facilities clean and the owners are very friendly. The only downside, if a light sleeper like me, it can get pretty noisy pretty early, as it’s quite close to the road
Disliked: Quite close to the road

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Relaxed arrival and leaving times, open choice of flat, even pitches. Local area is beautiful and owners were friendly.
Disliked: Lack of info about the fact they were composting toilets, lack of soap to wash hands and right next to busy road.

Liked: The location is handy to weston supa mare and burnham on sea. Shirley was lovely and so was her husband very friendly couple. The toilets are kept clean and the sawdust to sprinkle does work. The views are nice, fire pits are worth it and we.would definitely come back. Hopefully to less rain next time.
Disliked: My only negative would be for them to possibly buy more fire pits to there is enough for everyone.
