Abbey Home Farm

Syntes om Good value for camping £9 per person , It is like wild camping with water and basic facilities, There is cafe and farm shop short walk away , This is a eco site.

Syntes om Lots of space, quiet, lovely views, great farm shop a short walk away. Excellent value for money.

FYI: the main campsite, with the nice open views of the surrounding farm land, does not allow cars next to tents. There is a smaller section surrounded by hedges where vehicles can go but there are no views from here.

Syntes ikke om Check-in was confusing as there were no instructions. Turns out you need to check-in at the farm shop where you will be given directions and the code to unlock the campsite gate.

Syntes om Nice quiet site. Camping field has no cars allowed and views to the north. Showers were warm. I enjoyed the rustic feel

Syntes ikke om The website warns last check-in is 5pm. This accurate :-) we turned up at Abbey Farm (the actual farm) and the farm-hand didn’t know of the campsite, so it was a little confusing because the campsite location was not obvious.

Syntes om Lots of spac, great forest showers. John at the e-bike hire was brilliant describing the history of the area and cycle routes. Great few days.

Syntes om The private access and quietness of the site. I also loved the farm shop.

Syntes ikke om No light in the toilets so even in the daytime it was tricky to see as there was only a small gap letting in any light.

Syntes om We loved our gorgeous pitch in the magical glade and had a lot of fun with the woods to ourselves. Waterpoint and composting loo were ideal. It’s so great to be in the “wild” but also to have that amazing farm shop on our doorstep. Love the magical little touches to be found in the forest when you explore.
We definitely plan to come back.
The host was lovely and helpful too.

Syntes ikke om The only thing was that road noise was still quite loud in the woods, making you feel that little less secluded; but that can’t be helped.

Syntes om Beautiful location. Totally private. Nice welcome by the friendly owner. Primitive shepherds huts, but clean (this is NOT glamping). Private eco toilet. We loved the upside down bucket shower. Big kettle to heat water for shower and dishwashing and of course for tea and coffee.

Syntes ikke om No bin provided. In the confirmation it said that we had to take our rubbish home. This really surprised us as we were not going home and we felt that we paid quite well for this simple pitch. We were even more surprised to be told that we should bring our rubbish somewhere else for example a petrol station. We did not need petrol. Being an eco friendly farm shop and campsite, I didn’t feel this was an eco friendly remark.

Syntes om Really simple campsite
Stayed a few times now and just a great spot to use to break up a journey, but it feels really remote and cocooned

Syntes ikke om After staying a few times, the campervan field has worn off and I just feel like there needs to be some sort of view, similar to the tent field, rather than grown hedges. It feels a bit like you're out the way.

Syntes om - very peaceful, private campsite
- love the effort to be eco-friendly
- option to camp by your car or walk your tent further out with a wheelbarrow
- lovely walk from the campsite through some fields and woodland to the farm shop (also a direct option)
- easy check-in process

Syntes ikke om Everything was great

Syntes om Beautiful view and grounds.

Syntes ikke om Lack of bins/recycling stations. Completely understand leave no trace but would be better to have accessible recycling at the shop at least.
