The Shottisham Campsite

Líbí se A lovely open site with lots of room between vans/tents ensuring privacy.
Fabulous walks nearby, long or short which was lovely for the dog. Children will love seeing alpacas, sheep, goats, chickens etc and able to attend a guided feeding occasion. The Sorrell Horse pub close by was lovely. Only a 10 minute walk. A lovely weekend break, thank you.

Nelíbí se Would have liked the cafe to be open and maybe a small shop.
My early afternoon shower was tepid but probably my fault for leaving it so late.
We will be back!!

Od správce: Thank you for your lovely review and I am so pleased you liked staying on the campsite and enjoyed all the fabulous walks nearby.

Sorry about the showers, as we are not yet that busy I didn't have them at maximum capacity, but I have remedied that now. Unfortunately, as we are so rural we only have 2-phase electricity which means the water heats up more slowly and it can run out at busy times. I'm hoping to invest in some more solar panels over the next year which should help.

Similarly our rural location means it is hard for the cafe to sustain itself when it is not peak season - I also need to get some more help ion running it - more plans for the future.
hope to see you again soon

Líbí se Spacious pitches.
Quiet & peaceful.
Loved the animals
Great location

Nelíbí se Had a cold shower on the 1st night.
After that shower was lovely & hot.
Facilities could struggle on a busy weekend

Od správce: Hi,
Thank you for your lovely review and I am pleased you enjoyed the animals and the peace and quiet - we are so lucky here.

Sorry about the hot water - as it isn't very busy at the moment I didn't have the water heater at maximum capacity. I have remedied that now and hopefully it solves the problem. I wil also ask the electrician to double check the immersions in case one of them is broken.

as we are very rural we only have access to 2-phase electricity so we are limited in how much water we can heat up at once. While the tanks are continually heating it does mean that sometimes in busy times of the day it can run a bit cold. I'm hoping to get more solar panels which might help with this.
hope to see you again soon

Od správce: Thank you for your lovely review. I am so pleased you had a lovely time staying at the campsite. The Friday night pop-up wood-fired pizzeria will be open from late May onwards. Cafe will hopefully re-open for weekend brunch and lunch next year. Hope to see you again soon

Líbí se No check in. Clean site. Lots of room per pitch. Easily accessible toilets. Toilets clean and spacious. Showers also good size ( didn’t use as we stayed one night but looked clean).Park for children. Very easy and relaxed entry and exit to the site. Didn’t get to use a lot the site had to offer but will return in the future and would recommend.

Nelíbí se Not really one to add. I guess WiFi could be better but doesn’t matter if you want to escape the tech world. No signal for my phone either but it’s good to disconnect for me.

Od správce: Thank you so much for your lovely review, I am so pleased that you enjoyed staying on the campsite and I look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. The phone coverage is awful - one of the downsides of living in such a rural (but beautiful) spot. I am still struggling to sort out the wi-fi system I had installed - there appears to be no ongoing support which is disappointing, but I might try and change providers in the hope that it will help

Líbí se Site smaller than it looked on the map. Grandson loved being next to the animals and in the morning the chickens were outside the van which made his day. Nice walk in the woods next to us and toilets and shower nice and close.

Nelíbí se Nothing really. Would of been nice to see someone working there but I had a number if I had a problem. All other campers nice and friendly. Didn't know of road closure which meant going through all the lanes which was dodgy at time but not campsites concern.

Od správce: Thank you for your lovely review. I am glad your grandson enjoyed the animals - the chickens are a real highlight of the campsite. I am always bopping about on the campsite and smallholding and am available if there is ever a problem, or if people fancy saying hello, but I do run the campsite with a low-key, laid back vibe so people can really relax. I can always be reached by text though :) hope to see you again soon

Líbí se Excellent little site this, everyone loved it and there were walks and bike routes straight out the site. Pub close by too.

Host was lovely and invited the kids to join in with feeding the animals which was thoroughly enjoyed.

Líbí se Lovely little gem of a campsite. Clean facilities close to the pitches. Nice size pitches plenty of space. Nice to have animals on site the children enjoyed seeing them all. Having the forest at the back on the site was great for exploring with the kids and dogs the kids also loved the playground

Od správce: Thank you for your lovely review. I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay here. We are really lucky to have a wood behind the campsite full of excellent climbing trees for adventures - and of course, the village playground next to the campsite. Glad you liked the animals - there should be some baby goats next year as well.
Hope to see you again soon

Od správce: Thank you for your lovely review. I am glad you enjoyed the beautiful part of the world I am lucky enough to live in - it is an ideal location with the forests, coast and wonderful heathland - as well as easy access to historic towns and castles.

Please you enjoyed animal feeding too - I love taking people round to see (and feed) the animals, it's always fun.
Hope to see you soon
