Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Lovely, quiet camp site. Staff in the on site pub/ B&B were fab and super accommodating, particularly when letting a bunch of us camper book last minute rooms after our tents were flooded due to constant heavy rain. All in all, a great site with great views!
Disliked: The bathroom area was fairly clean but could use a couple of pegs or a table to put your stuff on, because you have to use the floor for your clean stuff etc.

Liked: Easy to book and find. Lovely grass pitches for our tent. The views are spectacular.
Disliked: There is only two shower/toilet stalls, so there can be a bit of a queue in the mornings.

Liked: Nice setting, handy having a pub and restaurant on site. Lovely little lake nearby.
Disliked: Not shown where to go just given some vague instructions. Despite groups of adults arriving and drinking in the pub until closing, no one checked on the field later in the night. People drinking, shouting and partying with no consideration for other campers. Resulted in big fight, serious threats and awful language. Thank god our kids slept through it or they would have been very upset and scared. Got no sleep. Would not return.
