The Hydeaway

Positiv Lovely small, quiet campsite in a great location. Nicest compost loos I've ever experienced and great, spacious shower room with benches, hooks, mirror etc - really beautifully and thoughtfully created. Jan is lovely, came onto the site to greet us and check we had all we needed - we'd forgotten our camping table and before we knew it, one was set up for us! We were using our camper van but we took a peek in the empty bell tents and they looked beautiful. Jan really cares about this site and has some great plans for making it even better! Thoroughly recommend this site. Sarah-Jo & Kev

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much, Sarah-Jo and Kev, for your wonderful review. It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I'm so pleased you enjoyed your stay at The Hydeaway.

Your lovely comments about our compost toilets and shower room mean a lot, as we tried to create facilities that are comfortable while still being environmentally friendly. I'm also glad we could help with the camping table – it's the little things that can make a stay more enjoyable!

Thank you for taking the time to look around our bell tents too. We're excited about the plans we have for The Hydeaway over the coming months, and it's lovely to know you can see the potential.

Your recommendation means the world to a small, independent campsite like ours. We really hope we'll have the pleasure of welcoming you back again soon.

Warmest wishes,

Jan

Positiv Location. Great hosts.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and for choosing to stay at The Hydeaway. It was a pleasure to meet you, and I'm really pleased you enjoyed your stay overall.

Thank you also for your helpful feedback. I'm sorry the shower drainage wasn't quite right during your visit, but I'm pleased to say it was sorted straight away, so hopefully future guests won't experience the same issue.

I completely understand that compost toilets aren't everyone's preference, although we do our best to make them as comfortable, clean and pleasant as possible. As for our neighbouring farmer's cow, I'm sorry it disturbed your sleep! Country life can sometimes be a little more vocal than expected, and unfortunately that's one thing beyond our control.

I'm glad I could help with charging your phone, and thank you again for your kind words. I hope we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back to The Hydeaway in the future.

Positiv We had one of the two camper van pitches (non hookup). Very quiet location. Much of the site is left to nature with a lovely meadow and the grass and wild flowers left to grow between the pitches. Great shower.

We're delighted that you enjoyed the peace and quiet of The Hydeaway and the wildflower meadow and natural grass areas are an important part of creating a relaxing environment for both our guests and local wildlife, so it's wonderful to hear that you appreciated them.

Positiv Friendly, tidy and peaceful. Not a place for people who want hot tubs, activities, entertainment etc, but perfect if you want a nice, peaceful meadow with a pleasant view and very welcoming owner.

The shower space was spacious for a family and had plenty of hot water am or pm time.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi, thank you so much for your review. I'm so glad you and the children enjoyed your stay. We have now revisited the possibility of putting a traffic mirror opposite the entrance to the site and this should be in situ in a couple of days. Thank you!

Positiv Lovely little set up, small friendly and perfect for a relaxed getaway. Quiet, back to nature, friendly hosts and super clean. A perfect mix of camping/glamping on a small scale.

Positiv We spent two wonderful nights at this campsite and highly recommend it! The tent was perfectly clean, with very comfortable beds. We loved the welcoming touches of coffee, tea, and cookies. The setup is excellent: a private campfire spot, hot showers, and a useful kettle to use over the fire.The location is beautiful, quiet, and not overcrowded, offering plenty of privacy. Our children were absolutely delighted with the stay and loved the whole experience.The owner deserves a special mention – she is incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. It is the perfect place to relax in nature. We will definitely be back!
