Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Nice, fairly flat grass pitch, wonderful hosts, great Scottish breakfast and lovely pub food.
Disliked: The exceptionally bright outdoor light which lit up our tent for most of the night. Next time we stay will will pitch our tent behind the wall of the outbuilding!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Friendly landlord and cook. Able to get really good meals virtually on site at good prices. Choice of camping in open or in orchard, both with soft grass. Privately hedged although in the middle of the quiet village. Immaculate toilets in hotel accessed from the campsite. Covered exterior seating area with electric socket. Washbasins in the toilets but lack of a shower was the one down point. Handy for the M74 and country routes.
