Liked Fantastic night in one of the pods. Great host. The pods are basic but have power and incredible views and the showers are hot. What more could you ask for.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Beautiful peaceful and secluded site with gorgeous views of the hills and sunset. The owners are really lovely. The facilities were okay for a couple of nights. I would definitely come back.
Disliked The toilets could do with being cleaned a little more often. I’m not sure when they were, maybe I went at the worst times. It would also be good to have paper towels to dry hands on, but just minor things over all.

Not for us
Electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked The view is beautiful . Rolling hills , lots of wildlife.
Hosts communicated well prior to arrival and helped us to book
Disliked Only 2 showers for the whole site (4 toilets)
Toilets/shower block are very old/ run down
Spiders sharing the showers with me!
No freezer/microwave
Site is so uneven that our tent was on a slope
Very windy and a lot cooler as position of site is high.
1st night it was so windy that our tent ripped . On other sites hosts have been present especially during bad weather but not here.

From the manager: Thank you for your comments. Just to clarify that we don't advertise a freezer or microwave or 24/7 presence in case of bad weather. There are only 10 pitches on the whole camp field so 4 toilets and 2 showers (3 years old) are more than adequate, well maintained and cleaned regularly. We state in our information that group bookings of 3 or more pitches are not permitted however you booked in a group of 4 pitches. We allowed this as a one off, allowing you to pitch together as a group. In return you left 2 large scorched areas on the grass from your barbecues, threw ashes away next to your pitches, left rubbish in the hedges and didn't recycle any of your copious amounts of rubbish.

Anonymous Camping pod
Liked A lovely location within easy driving distance of beaches and towns. The pod was clean, comfortable and had the basic equipment included. Shower and toilet facilities were clean and adequate for the size of the site.
Disliked The only niggle we had was that when using the shower, the temperature and water pressure would drop instantaneously if someone flushed a loo or was washing up and it would take a minute or so to return to normal - a very uncomfortable experience, especially for younger children!
