We stayed in the bell tent with 4 of us and a dog. The plot is self contained with shower, toilet and washing up area which was great for my hubby and eldest child who aren't campers! On a clear night the low light pollution enabled us to see the milky way, shooting stars and Andromeda! The field next to us wasn't being used and the other field only had one or two campers so we felt like we were on our own! I've not heard such peace and quiet before!! The dog loved it. I've not seen her so relaxed away from home before! With a teenager and a tweenager the lack of signal or electricity to charge was a huffing matter but they coped, with the help of our battery pack which is essential if you need to check weather or things to do. Best to do that before you arrive! With the recent heatwave we were unprepared for the cold of the position. The wind whips up from the valley up the hill to the site so take jumpers and jeans for the evenings and mornings!! We didn't get much sleep as the tent rubs on the beds as it flaps. The beds are up against the side of the tent with no room to move but is better if you position pillows at the corners to stop the squeeking noise. The tent flaps around generally, but nothing you can do about that! We started to get used to it after a few nights! If you have tall people the single camp beds are small both in length and width so better for small children or non wrigglers and the mattress is very thin so I'd advise you to take extra duvets for padding. We think the site is great and the owner is lovely. The location is within easy reach of the beach and Exmoor. What more could you ask for?! I'd taken some walks to do as we'd been to the area before. Careful on the lanes as very narrow and locals come tearing down them, some without slowing down!!

We liked everything, the wilderness of this camping is amazing, the field itself, the grass, the view across the hills, woods and sea.
The toilets and showers are new and clean, we loved it.
There are water taps at each camping pitch. the pitches are divided by un-cutted grass.
The scenery is absolutely stunning.
The owners make an amazing stone baked pizza and delivered hot to your tent with a really good price (8£ per pizza).
They can supply you with wood logs and steel fire pit.
Overall an amazing magical camping site, quiet and with basic comfort in order to experience a true wild camping.
