Electric grass pitch
Liked: Warm welcome on arrival, clean and tidy quiet site with level pitches. Permanent residents are really friendly and the river runs along the back of the site with easy access for swimming, fishing and kayaking.
Disliked: Showering system. Only two showers in the ladies and same in gents. This could be an issue when the site is full.

Poppy camping pod
Liked: Immaculate site that is very well set out. Situated well with a river running along side. Some amazing dog walks right from the site. We don’t have any children but it looked quite child friendly with lots of toys for them to play with. Everyone adhered to the 10.30 quiet policy. I don’t think they had WiFi but you wouldn’t need it anyway as the signal is full bars 4G . The people running it were very friendly and helpful with lots of information for you to peruse.
Disliked: The showers are 50p/5 mins. I found this a little bit short as I have long hair and the water pressure is very low when you have the shower set to hot. Also the hottest setting was only just hot. Not hot enough for my other half who is a Bluebeard to have a shave without removing his upper epidermis. The pod we stayed in smelled a little bit funky. I would describe it as oniony my OH said sprouty. Not overwhelmingly so. Just enough to make you sniff yourself to make sure it isn’t you. Or the dog. Which it wasn’t in this case as the dog smells much worse when he’s been eating spicy food. Or just food in general.

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked: Amazing, quiet campsite, that turns into small fairy lights paradise after dark. Just by the river, where you can have a walk and sit by the pebble beach. Very clean and well maintained area with few spots where you can relax and play. Very friendly and welcoming staff that makes your stay a delight after long day of traveling. Very well explained site with a lot of signage.
Disliked: Showers that uses .50p coins, I understand it reduces queues as you only have few but its a bit of a stressful experience trying to rush through the process and makes sure your soap is off your hair.
