Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Friendly host.
Peace & quiet (except for the neighbour's dog)
Composting toilets clean with no smell (as they should be).

Disliked Pitches are not level and not flat - basically a roughly mown field.
Composting toilets are very cramped when sitting.
Expensive for such a basic site.

Great compost loos, good choice of pitches and very friendly owners.

Non-electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Loved absolutely everything, it's so pretty and quiet . I loved the mushroom that the owners daughter carved for me , my 5 yr old thought the compost toilets were beautiful. Just remember to remove your phones from your pockets before using lol . No we didn't drop our phones haha . If I want peace we'll be back . Thanks guys . Forget to say the owners are so friendly and produce yummy cider

Disliked Absolutely nothing to dislike

Highly recommend. Friendly farm owners, knowledgeable and kind.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked A lovely, spacious campsite overlooking the apple orchards, in great proximity to some beautiful walks in mid-Wales. Bill is a really friendly and hospitable host - he sells delicious locally-made cider and had some great local recommendations for us. Would happily return to this campsite.

Beautiful location and very peaceful with local walks. Compost loos were clean…
