Liked: How friendly the site owners are, the site is very clean and tidy, the toilet and shower blocks are cleaned at least 3 times a day. The site has a lovely park, woodland walks and is really accessible to the local town and a railway for days out. The field is kept today and well kept, very friendly site, not loud after 10.
Disliked: No shop on site or camping shops near by for supplies if you run out.

Electric optional grass tent pitch (four person)
Liked: Upon arrival we were greeted by very friendly staff. Everything was in place. We used an electric hookup camping pitch. The showers were clean and they were always toilet rolls available. The site was really mild maintained and on a couple of nights special pizza evenings were arranged. My family especially enjoyed the adult outdoor gym area. Highly recommended. Will return . Also Wi-Fi was available on two devices but my phone received 5G for the whole week
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Amazing site, lots of woodland for walks and walled grass play areas for ball games. Brand new play park for children. Plenty of toilets and toilet shower blocks are kept clean. Large site and even though busy for bank holiday weekend everyone was respectful and having a great time, i didn’t see one piece of litter anywhere the whole weekend. Staff friendly and helpful, site is very close to the small town.
Disliked: Not so much a dislike as did fine but could possibly do with 1 or 2 more showers and washing up sinks.

Liked: Clean, friendly site. Really liked the fact the toilets are coded so not just anyone can use them. Pitches are good and flat. WiFi was very good for a campsite, helped keep in touch with our older children who stayed at home. Location was great!
Disliked: Nothing, great site will be returning

Electric optional grass touring pitch
Liked: Really liked the relaxed atmosphere, hot and powerful (free) showers, and the space to camp as a group. The site has a fantastic woodland, complete with fairy village for the kids, and neighbours onto a conservation area full of wildlife (we were lucky enough to see an osprey amongst other birds and mammals). On the doorstep is an abundance of walks and bike routes meandering through and over the surrounding mountains and valleys - Happy Valley is a must to see the wild rhododendrons. The mountains really provide a stunning backdrop to the camp site.
Disliked: The camping field is right next to a busy road, with boy racers and their fat exhausts tearing by regularly. However, this is nicely drowned out by the nesting crows, squabbling in the treetops from dawn to dusk. There are no pitches marked out so pitching is a bit of a free for all and if you go out for the day, be ready to return to find a tent where you parked your car or sat out in the evening. Turn up early and stick out your elbows to get some space. Whilst the showers were gloriously warm and powerful, three showers and five toilets is a bit tight for the number of people on site. With it being a busy bank holiday weekend, the toilets quickly ran out of paper, the loos dirty, and the floors wet. The bins also were overflowing and the staff seemed intent on only cutting two small areas of grass, meaning the rest was a bit long and very wet.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. Regarding the grass cutting, my husband had to stop cutting as the belt went on the mower. Christina
Perfect location, large pitches and clean facilities.
