Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi Sarah

Thank you so much for leaving us a review. Yes it super hot during your stay wasn't it! Glad you enjoyed your time with us and thanks for commenting positively on the facilities, we work hard to maintain high standards. We also note your comment about feeling safe. As you know we have a secure site, fenced off with access / egress via electronic gates with intercom and coded access. We really appreciate your feedback and hope to see you again next season!
Take care, Paul

Positiv This is a perfect little campsite, with a lovely feel to it. A beautiful spot and well-located. The owners are wonderful hosts. Facilities are spotlessly clean, with a good shower and toilets, and a dedicated area for washing up (with hot water, too!). Enjoy a morning walk round of the animals on the smallholding - the highlight being 3-day old Pygmy goats. A really handy spot for USB/C charging of devices, plus garden games such as Connect 4, swing ball etc. If you’d enjoy a quiet, peaceful camping experience in a pretty part of the country, you’ll want to stay here.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Arh, thank you so much for your lovely review. You did a great job listing the facilities on site and documenting the highlights of your stay, we really appreciate that. Hope you can visit again soon. Take care

Positiv Beautiful setting, Well maintained, it's obvious the owners take great pride in everything they do and have considered every detail to make guests feel welcomed and comfortable during their stay.
The kids loved the farm tour, games on the field & making stores on the fire pit that is available to hire on site.
We'd highly recommend Primrose small holding for family camping.
Thank you Paul for your hospitality and for your attention to details.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Michelle, thank you very much for your lovely review.
So glad your children had a good time and made use of the outdoor games, we hope to add a few more games and simple play equipment in the coming weeks to maximise the open space. We can't install anything permanent of course because as a pop up site, the whole field has to be returned to the sheep at the end of the camping season!
Thanks again for taking the time to leave us a review
PS - I thought your sunset photo with the firepit in the foreground was fab!

Positiv Spacious, clean, well equipped very safe for the kids, beautiful surroundings and fantastic view, nice and level, a really nice happy vibe amongst campers, just a perfect place to camp. Facilities were brilliant. Thank you guys for a fantastic stay will be back very soon.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you very much for leaving us a review. I had copied & pasted your private feedback below which I think was intended to be part of your main review but isn't visible to other campers - hope you don't mind, but I think it would be very helpful for other guests to read, here it is....
Private feedback:Great campsite for the cost. We really enjoyed our stay as a family. My children 5 & 7 loved feeding the animals and the activities put out on the field. We could also relax letting them explore as it felt very safe. The campsite was very clean, couldn't fault the toilets and shower. Our first time going camping without electric and it was great. The fridge and freezer on site really helped with it being so hot. The owner was away on our visit but his brother and wife did an excellent job and made us feel very welcome. We couldn't fault our stay and will definitely be returning in the future and telling friends. Thank you.

Positiv Would give 100 stars if possible. Paul was incredibly welcoming and helpful, going above and beyond several times (allowing us to reschedule our stay due to illness, and posting forgotten water bottles back to us after our stay). The camping field was massive and impeccably clean. With only 10 or so camping parties allowed, there was so much space to spread out and not be on top of your neighbour. We loved that there were no allocated pitches so we could go where suited us and have an adjoining space to our friends who joined us. There was a badminton set, swing ball, giant connect 4, and tug of war rope that all of the kids (and adults) thoroughly enjoyed. The loos were spotless, well stocked with toilet roll, and never smelt. The shower, while small, was powerful and hot - it's the samr electric shower we have in our house! The washing up sink was a full size sink with hot water and plenty of space. The shed onsite included a massive fridge and chest freezer for campers to use which was amazing having kids and keeping snacks and ice packs cold. There was also a charging station for electronics. The extras were truly unrivaled. Every morning Paul also offered a tour of his goats, chickens, and sheep allowing our children to help him feed them, pet them, and he provided loads of information about the animals and what it is like to keep them. Paul checked in several times throughout our stay, and we loved the option to hire a firepit/wood which saved room when packing. He provided recommendations of local pubs and shops and was very helpful. We absolutely loved our weekend here and plan to return again and have been recommending Paul and Primrose Smallholding Campsite to everyone we know that likes camping. Quiet, clean, spacious, safe, and friendly...what more could you ask for?

Negativ Absolutely nothing!

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thanks for your review and your visit to Primrose Smallholding Rebecca.
We really appreciate your feedback and we're glad you felt the site was very good value for money and clean. Regarding your comment about numbers, we don't restrict the number tents per booking plus we allow more than one vehicle because some families arrive separately. Even so I'm sure you agree there is still loads of room for campers and children to enjoy!

Positiv Friendly family run, good location, great views, really clean toilets, fridge and freezer and charging point, such a chill/Friendly vibe and the animal feeding in the morning is really fun

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hana, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a nice a review. We have added a number of site facilities which you have mentioned based on customer feedback last year so we're happy you found these useful. With the scorching Bank Holiday weather you experienced (amazing wasn't it), the freezer and fridge was certainly well used! Like you, we felt the vibe over the whole weekend was really chilled! Come back anytime, and thanks again for visiting with your children.

Positiv Great site, very spacious pitches, very friendly owners they could not of done anymore for everyone , games for everyone to use, clean facilities, small farm area for children to feed them each morning, gated so felt very safe for children.

Negativ One tiny issue, we would have liked the grass a bit shorter. But would not stop us coming back anytime.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi Natasha, thank you for leaving us such a nice review, we genuinely appreciate that. I am glad you and your children had a lovely time with us and made use of the facilities.We currently use a tractor flail mower to cut the grass but it has been growing so fast in these ideal conditions! We hope to invest in a dedicated grass mower next year. Thanks for visiting, please do come back soon.
