Liked: Very laid back atmosphere, you just call the owner when you arrive and they’ll come visit your pitch for you to pay the bill. You can rent a burner and wood for use. The view is spectacular on the site, there’s green fields for miles around, and a few sheep and Alpacas to see as well. There are compost toilets on site to use, but no shower facilities which is stated on the website.
Disliked: It is far from shops so stock up on necessities before you pitch up.

Liked: Very relaxed site and owner, just turn up and park where you like, the track up to the site is a little rough but if you take your time is no issue at all. Wasn't brave enough to go beyond Hill 2 on our stay as it was a little wet and windy didn't want to get stuck! Hill 2 had a compost toilet, chemical toilet waste facility and the coco diner so was happy to stay on that hill, even with the misty weather the view was still beautiful. Will definitely return and hopefully be able to spend a little more time outside with a firepit etc.
Disliked: Nothing, definitely enjoyed the wild camping and try something different compared to usual sites. Just be aware when they say wild camping this is what they mean, don't expect a shower / toilet block!

Liked: Location, location, location! Parked up here in the campervan with grandson & dog. Made it up to level 2 then stopped near the 'Diner' on a flat bit as it was quite wet. You can walk a few miles just around the site - it is huge. Afraid to drive up to level 3 as it was wet and slippery. Site owner's 4x4 was having no problem. Was expecting a field and got a whole mountain. Views are amazing. Bonus was the 'Diner' - had delicious chips with burger and hot dog in the evening and the ultimate breakfast in the morning. Not sure if they are there all the time - it was a Bank Holiday weekend with weather to match. There was a shop too at the entrance but an awful long way to walk back from the level 2 camping. Would advise buying a kite there on the way in if you don't have one to bring as grandson was wishing he had one too when other kids had them flying but couldn't face the walk back to the shop once we'd made it half way up the hill. Compost toilets were clean and not smelly. Lit with fairy lights when you're sitting on the throne after dark. Some waste disposal tanks. Didn't see a tap but had brought our own water. No bins so remember a rubbish bag to take it away with you. Firepits, kindling and wood available.
Disliked: Pity the weather was typical for a Bank Holiday in August. In good weather this site would be even more fabulous.
