Cedar Valley

Positiv Nice location. The Dell is a fantastic bonus for cafe/pizza/bar etc.

Negativ The website states "all groups must book the Paddock campsite". We were a group of 3 families with young children so thought we had to book the Paddock, but it was totally inappropriate for us. There were 2x extremely large groups (probably 8-10 tents) who had loud music until 11pm every night over the bank holiday. The wardens were on site but showed no interest in enforcing the 9pm curfew. There were also lots of smaller groups of teenagers and young adults who made lots of noise until the early hours.

Possibly the Meadow would have been better, but in which case the website needs to be updated to be clear that young, quiet families who want peaceful evenings without music should stay there instead.

The facilities were clean but the site was very busy on the bank holiday weekend. Most of the toilets and showers are combined in the same cubicles which meant long queues at peak hours.

There was no oversight of the camping locations and one group (~ 4 tents) bizarrely camped in a line in front of the toilets, right on top of other groups and even blocking another person's van in. This meant everyone was forced to walk through their site and other sites to get to the toilets. The wardens should have told them to camp elsewhere given there was plenty of room at the bottom of the field.

Positiv Lovely place, good walks to the pub, lovely 'Dell' bar.

Negativ We tried to order pizza in what we thought might be plenty of time (about 12 on the day for any time in the evening) but they were already sold out by then. Also something was broken so couldn't buy breakfast the following morning, this was a shame. The people next to us were a huge group with so many cars! Was a bit like being in a car park, again a bit of a shame.

Positiv Wonderfully maintained site in a quiet area. Facilities were clean and there were enough showers so there were no queues!
Beautiful area and, for all but one night, extremely quiet after 9pm.

Negativ Despite camping in the family field and not the group field, an extremely large group turned up. They were noisy until 2am and kept unlocking and locking their cars which caused the lights to flash and the horns to beep. There was no one supervising the site to address this but we did receive an apology from the site the following morning when we notified them of the disturbance. However, our last night was completely ruined and I would think twice about booking here with a young family again if the site allows large groups to camp and inconsiderately disturb others until 2am.

Good toilet facilites.
Cafe and bar really relaxed and views were very pleasing.Loved the fact the beer was a local brewery.

Negativ There was a no fire policy due to extreme hot weather but soneone in our field had a fire. Not policed enough.

Positiv Everything. The location, the facilities on site and the options for food at the Dell. The people were really friendly and checked on was very simple.

Negativ The ground was hard for our pegs, but this could be the exceptional dry spell we were having.

Positiv Loved the location. Surrounded by golden fields and undulating hills everywhere. It’s in an absolutely stunning area! Also a bargain at £15 per night.

Negativ My only gripe is lack of a rail/ bannister on the toilet block. Being disabled and having to use mobility aids, it was a real struggle to get up the 3 quite steep (for me) steps. Coming down was even more of a challenge! I’ve only become disabled over the last 2 years and it’s become quite an eye opener.

Having said that, the toilet/ shower block was very clean. The showers were powerful and lovely and hot!
I’ll still be coming back. There’s so much to explore!
