Positiv Loved the site, spacious field - quite a luxury to have plumbing at a campsite like this as well, expected compost toilets of some description (which would have also been fine!). There's a huge barn and spacious cooking / eating area. Was good to have somewhere to shelter and eat comfortably outside of the tent when it rained. Everything was very clean, well put together and thought out. Quiet + far from main road noises. Highlight was robins nesting in the roof of the outbuildings and watching them very efficiently come with food for the chicks, we also saw a frog and the swallows in the barn chasing each other around and chattering. Lots of birdsong - a very healthy ecosystem!

Negativ Nothing to do with the campsite itself or how it is operated, but someone had left a big bag of mixed rubbish in the wrong bins - including recyclables - despite really clear signage in the bin area, on the front of every bin, on the toilet doors, and even on the campsite listing. I felt bad for the owners having to sort through it all. If you're heading off camping, please do be mindful with your waste so the hosts (and other guests) aren't left to deal with it. It's such a small thing that makes a real difference, especially if the site has everything covered (bins for card and paper, metal, food waste, plastic, sanitary - couldn't be easier to figure it out!)

Positiv 5 stars, average score. The barn and location was great

Negativ Only one toilet and one shower, can be described rustic but it’s a very outdoor toilet right next to the wash up sinks.
Cold water to wash up.
Grass was overgrown and unmowed.
Didn’t match price point.

Positiv Location was great to access Portsmouth. Clear signage but in small letter, difficult to read.

Negativ Facility at the site didn't reflect the price we paid for the weekend. Only cold water for washing dishes. The shower hot water regulator was not working and as a result it was only very hot water.

Positiv • Staff were friendly once an initial arrival confusion was sorted.
• Loved being offered the cottage shower when the site shower broke — it was warm, clean and very welcome after a trail run.
• Peaceful, rural setting with a relaxed vibe.
• I can imagine it being a really lovely, chilled site in summer for those seeking rustic simplicity.

Negativ • Site was tricky to find — a What3Words location or clearer arrival directions would help.
• Mixed messages on where to park; being told to park on the grass, then being asked to move, was confusing and made arrival stressful.
• Electric hook-up was too far from the allocated pitch, and required a 240v adaptor that wasn’t mentioned in booking details and I don't have an adapter
• The on-site shower was broken (unavoidable, but worth noting), and the alternative cottage bathroom hadn’t been cleaned between guests (unmade bed, used towels left out).
• Washing-up area was extremely basic and not clean with cold water only, which also wasn’t mentioned in the listing.
• For £40 per night, the facilities didn’t feel reflective of the price, especially when expecting hook-up and a shower.

Positiv Quiet, rustic and very peaceful location. Booked very last minute for the night and all very relaxed, just drove in, parked up. No sign of owners, saw a sign for self check in but couldn't work it out, no bother as plenty of space.
Loved the cooking facilities although didn't need to use them. Cottages looked nice too.
