Barn Owl Campsite

Positiv Nice to have your own pitch that allows you to utilise the space how you want with pup tents etc.

Positiv Peaceful setting with very widely spaced pitches. Lovely meadow with mown areas for camping. Clean and simple toilets. There was a shower but we didn’t use it. You can driver you vehicle to the pitch and park there which is convenient.

Negativ Nothing

Positiv We were not close to other people. Areas of wild grasses and flowers separated the tents. An area was set up to do cooking/eating with a picnic table and an awning. Very useful as it rained off and on while we were there. The site manager/owner was very pleasant, thank you for the vase of flowers you left.

Positiv Large plots sizes on a rural peaceful site.
Very friendly owners.

Negativ Cold water only for washing up . Toilets are very dark.

Positiv Loved it. Calming, relaxing and great for a reset.

Negativ Need one more toilet and water at the lower end of the field.

Positiv Good site with great efforts towards green living. Probably one of the best pitches I have stayed on with plenty of space in a secluded grass pitch with a bench and seats plus a metal fire pit.
Warm welcome on arrival and given a walk round to select a pitch. Very quite at night. Decent O2 phone signal.

Negativ The entrance has low trees if you have a higher motorhome. I had to nudge under slowly so might be a problem if they catch solar panels or aerials. The first field is has no obstructions but the track to the nicer pitches is narrow with brambles brushing both sides, it certainly added a couple of scratches to my windows at about the 2+ metre heigh. Probably not a problem for smaller outfits of if the undergrowth is trimmed back.

Positiv Friendly and helpful owner. The pitches are well separated and feel private. It could be called "almost wild" camping. Facilities are fine. Location is good. Access is easy. Pitch came with a firepit. Wood was reasonable. We enjoyed our stay.

Negativ Going through two gates to reach the meadow camp sites was a little bit of a chore after a couple of days, but I'm sure there's a reason for the gates.

Shower facility is a shack and there's only one, albeit with hot water and pressure was fine.

On our second night there was a group of young adults partying late into the morning hours, but at least they didn't play loud music.

Positiv Lovely site with individual pitches in the meadow. Very private with plenty of space and perfect for our dog.. Very green in regards to compost loos and recycling. Lovely warm shower.
Hosts were fab. Always quick to help or reply to messages.
Walking to the pub, possible with a couple to choose from in nearby villages. The one we tried was very welcoming.

Negativ Little to dislike but water for washing up was not hot so not the best for pots and pans.

Positiv The space for each pitch, the lack of fuss, the friendly owner the nice rural location

Negativ The road noise, the compost toilet was a bit cramped. No hot water for washing up!

Positiv Lovely site with really beautiful, private pitches with fire pits. Loads of wildlife to see and some lovely pubs within an easy walk. The owners were also really friendly and helpful. The facilities were great and just what we needed only thing to consider was the toilets were quite high! Maybe they could add a small step for the shorter among us!
