What customers say
This is a peaceful, clean, and well-maintained campsite, often praised for its riverside location and proximity to a good pub. Visitors highlight the friendly owners, level pitches, and excellent value. While many report a very positive experience, some mention limited facilities, specifically only one shower per block, and dated bathroom interiors. Despite minor drawbacks, most guests express a desire to return.

This is a great value campsite…
Electric hardstanding pitch
Liked This is a great value campsite that we've now stayed on a number of times. Rachel the owner is lovely, and there's a relaxed vibe to the whole place. The facilities are excellent. A very short walk away is the Severn Arms Hotel doing good pub food and range of beers, with a nice garden. The best bit: if you get on one of the pitches right next to the river Ithon, you can watch herons fly up and down as the sun sets. It's great!
Disliked Nothing.

From the manager: Thank you for this, you are very kind.
Hopefully next time you visit there will be a bit more water in the river. Watching the ducks fly up and sail back down stream is a treat! See you next year.

From the manager: Thank you for your review.
We are very sorry that you had no contact with us during your stay.
We were down on the site at various times. If we see guests out and about, we stop to talk, but we do not knock on all doors as we think this is invasive. We all have jobs aside from the park, so you may not see us during the day. There is someone at the farm at all times. We email out information about the site and where to go. It states that you may contact us at any time. Numbers and information are also pinned up at the facilities. Most people ring on arrival.
On the confirmation email that we send to you, regarding the pub, it clearly states ' it is advisable to book ahead and to check if they are serving that day'.
We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay and hope you had a safe trip back.
