What customers say
This campsite boasts stunning locations, often by a stream or with reservoir views, and exceptionally friendly staff. Many praise the good value, on-site activities, and convenient parking. However, some visitors note cleanliness issues in toilet and shower blocks, long walks to facilities from certain pitches, and occasional Wi-Fi unreliability. Despite some areas needing attention, many found it a beautiful and peaceful place for outdoor pursuits.

Nice location. Good views.…
Reservoir View 1 bedroom camping pod
Liked Nice location. Good views.
Disliked Sheep allowed to roam all over public areas. Their poop all over the grass and walkways. No one cleaning up after them. Also outdoor lighting at the pod not working. Though I understand the need for plastic plates and cups at the campsite, cheap bendy cutlery was just awful.

Great campsite.
Reservoir View non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We liked views , facilities were great. Nice walking distance paths. We didnt really needed to get out of the campsite as a lot avilable on site.
Disliked Parcels are way too close to eachother. We felt like we are sleeping with others in the same tent. Slightly gaps or less pitches in a row would make a huge difference.

Stream Side non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Peaceful location, lovely to be able to pitch so close to running water, very helpful staff, convenient café/reception. Fantastic views from the top of site. Easy access onto The Gap mountain bike loop directly from site. Amazing value for solo campers, though.
Disliked Waterside pitch area gets very busy. Fairly awkward walk from the car to the pitch area. Wheelbarrows a nice idea but pretty useless on that path. Shower block very dated and gradually flooded around the urinals while I was there. No soap in the dispenser over the sinks. Really poor and unreliable WiFi provision. Sheep poo all over the camping field. Access roads are at times uncomfortably narrow for two-way traffic.

Reservoir View non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Everything!!
Disliked Just a suggestion: the showers need a shelf to place clothes and toiletries, please!
Take earplugs as the sheep are a bit noisy.
