Watertop Farm

Positiv Quiet rural location. Good walks with great views.
Plentiful hot water for showers.
Facilities to suit families.

Negativ The toilet and shower blocks were unheated ( it was an unseasonably wintry weekend ) and not completely clean e.g. dust and hair in and around the sink beside the shower, cobwebs in the toilet block) Just needs a little more attention.

Positiv Very isolated location

Negativ Weather was terrible when we arrived very wet and windy. No one in attendance called mobile number and told to take our pick of pitches, so wandered around in the dark to see what was what.
Pitches, not much more than a bit of concrete and gravel off a muddy farm track, fortunately only a few vans present but overwise it would have been very crowded.
Washroom and amenities dreadful, housed in an old animal shed, they didn’t look like they had been cleaned in a long time. Weather was wet and windy and dank cold shower did not seem inviting.

Vom Platzbetreiber: It's difficult to respond to negative reviews when I'm sure miserable weather has skewed your perception of our farm campsite, however for the benefit of others reading:
1. We have an UNMANNED check in area with instructions and contact numbers. This isn't a secret, it's advertised as such on pitchup, so you can get on with your day and arrive whenever you want. We do advise to arrive before dark but it's not a big site to get lost on and everything is signposted. You even read the sign to contact us so the system works...
2. Out of season we have plenty of drop ins, so if you have booked last minute and already paid, it's likely you can also take your pick of pitches. Most people actually like having the choice...
3. The vans are in a row of 7 pitches, hardly crowded! The pitches have grey waste drains, individual drinking water taps and electric sockets. That 'muddy farm track' is a stone gravel track with quite understandable puddles of water (not mud) after hours of torrential rain. Good thing we didn't allocate you a grass pitch in the rain eh.
4. The showers etc are cleaned every day. And then people use them and they get dirty again. So the cycle continues. You are correct however that 2 showers are in a converted farm building (they are quite spacious, and usually clean, unless someone has been in before you and not left it clean...) but the other 2 are in the more modern block literally beside it (but they are a bit tighter on space). All have excellent pressure and HOT water.

Positiv Very nice and peaceful , my wee boy loved the monster slide plenty for everyone to do

Negativ NOTHING!

Positiv Loved our stay at Watertop. Lovely friendly welcome. Fantastic facilities with lovely outdoor walks and trails. Was last at Watertop Farm 24 years ago when my sons were small. Had very fond memories and loved being back again. Would highly recommend.

Positiv Great location with so much to do. Facilities were great, loved the campers kitchen! Fridge freezer, microwave and toaster. Perfect for us in tents. Can't wait to come back next year and do the waterfall walk. Felt completely safe as a solo camper on my first trip out.

Positiv Sehr ruhig und versteckt.

Negativ Duschen und Toiletten sind aus den 70er gefühlt. Leider haben wir niemanden gesehen und wurden auch nicht begrüßt.

Positiv Stayed 2 nights at this beautiful working farm, hosted by the lovely Patsy and Pauline. We enjoyed having the camp kitchen and fire in the museum each night. A great place, especially for children with the playgrounds and roaming animals to enjoy. The best hot showers! Some great walks and amazing scenery nearby.
Cannot recommend this place more highly.
