Vom Platzbetreiber: 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

Positiv Great location with an easy walk down to the pub. Lovely walks into the forest. Nice having the animals around on site.... Lovely for children. Nice and quiet at night no road noise.

Negativ Showers blocks were dirty and didn't appear to be attended during our stay. Site looks a bit sad and unkempt.... Maybe it's end of season blues.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your review. I am glad you enjoyed the peaceful, quiet location of the campsite and the animals - they are a big hit with the children.

Sorry you found the shower blocks to be not as clean as we would like them to be. We do clean them every day but especially in bad weather they can get dirty again quite quickly. Most people comment on how clean they are so I am sorry that your experience was not as good.
Hope to see you again soon

Positiv Location, size of pitch, cafe, animals on site, free range chickens, walks from site, dog friendly, welcoming, hard working site owner

Negativ Someone else had parked on our pitch. Soon resolved without issue. Grass pitches were starting to get a bit bald in places, Chemical disposal was blocked but soon cleared by a resident on site.
Toilets and showers could do with more regular and thorough cleaning but were fine.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you for your lovely review. I am glad you enjoyed staying on the campsite and sharing the space with the animals!

We are on sandy ground in a really dry part of the country so towards the end of summer the grass does wither away a bit, but luckily it always comes back the next year or when it rains!

I have been having an issue with the chemical toilet being blocked as someone put some kind of non-disposable cloths down it and they are stuck in the horizontal pipe. I have managed to get most of them out, but not all and they are still causing blockages every now and again. The sewage people are coming in a few days and I hope that with their help we can resolve any ongoing blockages.

Hope to see you again soon

Positiv A lovely campsite with plenty of space, peaceful and clean facilities. There is a good woodland/heathland at the back of the campsite for dog walking and plenty of quiet footpaths nearby. Also, great for star gazing!
Clare was very welcoming and sends an email early on your first day, giving the details of your pitch number.

Negativ You’ll need a 25m cable (not 20m) as some pitches are quite far from the connection point.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for your lovely review. I am so pleased you had a good time at the campsite and enjoyed all the beautiful countryside around us.

Some of the pitches are quite far from the hook-up points, but I always have 25 metre cables I am happy to lend to people with shorter ones.
Hope to see you again
