Electric grass pitch
Liked: Second time on this site and wouldn’t hesitate to return again. Brilliant campsite. Booked a grass pitch but staff offered me a hard standing instead due to ground conditions which I really appreciated. Nice pitches, quite a few onsite but all feel roomy and quiet. Facilities are excellent. Toilets, showers and wash up area are literally always spotlessly clean and well stocked. Great hikes in the local area. Very reasonable price, especially as good quality WiFi included. All staff very friendly and approachable whilst also leaving you to enjoy the peace and quiet
Disliked: Nothing, can’t fault it

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Staff were really friendly upon arrival and even came to check we were okay whilst we were pitching up. Went above and beyond to drop off and assist when we asked for wood for the fire pits they provide. Toilets were immaculate and we all complimented how the music/ radio in the background made it even more pleasant. Family shower rooms were great and very ideal when camping with young children. Plenty of fresh water taps around the site so you're never too far to put the kettle on. Site is dog friendly and has a dog walking field that's great. Little one really loved the park and farm animals on site and the planes too that would fly over occasionally. Overall a great site, will be visiting again!

Disliked: The sat nav took us up an extremely narrow lane which scraped the sides of van by the trees ect …. Council keeps removing any sign post the site put up saying better road further on so my suggestion would be to put something on the booking confirmation to let people know of the better way to approach site!

Liked: Lovely Clean Facilities, Camp site has animals (Sheep, Cow, Goats and Chickens) for the little one to feed (50p a bag), very helpful staff. Reception has a small shop for items you may need (milk etc). Shower and toilet block is heated with music playing, very modern and always very very clean. Site has wifi repeaters spreaded around so always seen able to connect to the site wifi. Cannot fault this campsite, been back twice now and would seriously consider going again.
Disliked: None, near perfect campsite.
