What customers say
Nice quiet spot in the bush, with super friendly staff. Toilets/showers are a cracker – clean and modern! Good for the kids and the dog. Some sites are a bit uphill and a bit of a trek to the loos, but it's generally spacious, clean and a ripper place to chill out.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Beautiful site and very well kept. The lady was extremely helpful as was the gentleman who came round to check on everyone. There are a small number of things for sale in the office if you need them, although out of the site there are so village stores too.
Toilets and showered were kept as clean as they could possibly be given the horrendous rain which did bring muddy feet into the facilities - the staff did amazing trying to battle it. I was also able to change from a grass pitch to a hard standing one as my car just could get into the grass with it being so wet and muddy - wheelslins all the way 😂. Was definitely not an issue and was moved straight away.
Disliked Very hard to fault anything as the team work so hard and from some of the replies to other reviews I see there are some plans re the infrastructure. The only three things that come to mind is the disused toilet block needs looking at as the smell is quite bad when the breeze is in the wrong direction. The ceiling above the showers and toilets could do with being painted in a Matt type of paint. At the moment it is high gloss which shows the reflection of the person either sat on the loo or in the shower. My daughter must be bored when suing the toilet being able to find this out lol. The other suggestion would be to have some sort of canopy over the washing up area.
But people, this really is a fabulous site and worth every penny. Will certainly be returning.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Beautiful area, on a nice quiet site with clean utilities and a nicely thought out space. There is also plenty to do nearby.
Disliked It is a shame the shower cupicles don't have either a seat to sit on, or a handrail for people to hols while trying to dress after showering as balancing can be tricky if the floor is wet.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked Good size pitch, facilities clean, lovely dog walk in the woods at the bottom of the play field (gap left corner to get in from the site). Friendly staff.
