I had my wedding next door at the shires oast, so I used little bell tent Hotel to pitch me 6 tents and I brought my motorhome and a few others pitched their own tents. We had two night here, first night campfire and second was the wedding next door and both was amazing! Sue in the office was amazing from booking start to finish. She has been helpful with putting my our separate bookings together and my constant emails getting it all sorted! Would highly recommend!

Nothing

Only thing good was that it was close to where we wanted to be. Not sure how this place got a 4 star rating- that must be years old.

Everything is the best description I can give. From arrival onwards this site does not know what it is suppose to be. First all you see are trucks full off cars, an outdoor car wash and cordoned off fields, follow the road and you come to a reception barrier. Staff were prepared for sign in, so that was okay but there was a big warning sign when I was asked if we are part of the wedding party. No we were not but there was a group of around 20-24 people in a couple of bell tents set up just in front of us. Why we were placed behind a big group I can't understand as there were plenty of other empty pitches on other camping fields. But no, we were right behind the biggest group. First night, the noise continued and increased due to drinking to well past midnight, although to rules stated quiet time is from 10 pm onwards and started again from 7.30 am on when they prepared breakfast... Toilet/ shower facilities- never seen anything so dirty. We were given codes to access the facilities but the lock to the Women's block is broken, door permanently open. When I first checked it out, I noticed mud, leaves and dry dirt around the entrance which was still there when we left 2 days later, I didn't notice anyone cleaning the toilet/ shower facilities in the time we were there or saw anything different between morning to ev, same dirt was still there. No privacy to wash yourself, all open space and with an unlocked door I didn't feel comfortable to go there to wash. Showers- even worse. You open the door and you are in the shower, no space to put up your clothes or towel yo keep them dry unless you leave everything outside on the hooks - not an option for me - again unlocked door one reason but I really don't think leaving my clothes outside is appropriate nowadays.
Camping field - that's what it was a field with a trail track for cars/ caravan or motorhome to go around and then done waterpoints and electricity hook ups, grass not even mowed.

Very friendly place to stay, it was quiet not many campers. Toilet and shower block very clean, lots of open spaces

Relaxed vibe, huge fields with loads of room. Great walks along the river and local countryside

Could be more toilets further into the fields but... Not the end of the world

Beautiful site, lovely to walk around and walk along the river
Water point right by the pitch
We were near the facilities but the site is so vast, a lot of people were driving from their pitches to the toilets etc.

Our pitch was next to the path which in itself was fine, but the EHU point for our pitch was on the other side of the path so our cable was on the path. This upset a couple of people.

99.9% of the place

The large family opposite our patch was quite disrespectful with noise talking like it was 12 o’clock in the afternoon when in fact it was gone 1am was meant to be a child’s birthday party but turned out to be more for them to have a party

A HUGE site so didn’t feel too crowded. Great for group gatherings and free and easy launch access to the river for SUP, kayaking or a dip.
Good position for visiting local sites of interest.
Toilets/showers were clean and pleasant to use. I had EHU and water on pitch.

Not a dislike but for awareness, a longer than average EHU lead may be needed - I had to park “badly” half on grass and gravel to attach mine 😂.

Nice flat pitch

Maybe more to do

As good as always, good facilities, friendly reception.

Road has gone really bad. Need fixing

Fields were well cut and mostly flat. Toilet block and showers were clean.

Driving between fields, ie the Americana field had very deep potholes full of rainwater. None too pleasing when my new vehicle had only just been purchased the day before. Had the potholes not been there I could have used my mobility scooter to access the toilets etc.
