Middlehills Farm Campsite

Liked A great family friendly campsite. I haven't been camping in years, and it was my youngest sons first time in a tent and we both loved it. Facilities were great, he loved the play park and the pizza was delicious.

Liked It was a lovely campsite situated in a very nice, convenient area. The facilities were spot on with great views. It was generally very peaceful and the pizza van was a very nice addition too. The check in process was very quick and easy. It felt a safe campsite, all of the staff were extremely friendly and we would definitely return.

Disliked While the site itself was brilliant with great facilities and very friendly staff, unfortunately our experience was impacted by a noisy group pitched next to us. Despite the site’s clear policy of no single sex groups over four people and no music after 10:30pm, the group (seven young lads) played loud music and were shouting well past midnight. We reported this to the on-site security just after midnight, who did respond and spoke to them, but the noise continued. We also called reception around 12:30am, and someone did come down again, but unfortunately the disruption carried on until around 1am. It was a real shame, as it made it hard to sleep and took away from what would otherwise have been a fantastic stay.

From the manager: Hi, Thankyou for your review. This group caused us no problems at all and they were asked to turn their music off at 10.30pm which they did. You spoke to security who asked them to keep it down which again they did. You called the house and my husband went out and said all they were doing was talking, not loud, just sat round chatting so left them too it. Unfortunately we cannot ask people to not talk and be in bed by 10.30pm, and I'm sorry that they disturbed you, its very hard to please everyone and of course if they were being loud and playing music we would have stopped them but in this case that simply wasn't the case.
I do hope you return again.

Liked Lovely playground, good pizzas, clean facilities, lots of space to pitch tent, very handy shop!

Liked Nice location. We had the place to ourselves so was lovely and peaceful
Good wash up and toilet facilities
Nice park for the kids
Small onsite shop that sells a good variety of things

Disliked It's on a little slope so not the flattest of ground. That's the only bad thing about the site

Liked What's not to like. The site was lovely, Staff extremely friendly and suggested we went to try the bar at the next farm, which was a lovely addition to the stay. Toilets and shower area were clean and tidy. Pizza hut was a hit. Will definitely stay again and already recommended to friends

Disliked Only thing to spoil it were 2 lads in the next tent, screeching until 1am

Liked Ground well prepared and spacious field. Couple animals to see on the farm. Small shop available with essentials. Pizza van on a weekend. Great playground for kids. Clean toilets and no queues.

Disliked Extra pay for shower and hair dryer. Water out early.

Liked Beautiful views and great facilities for kids. Good price too.

Liked Fantastic playground,
Lovely little onsite shop
Pizza van on site Fri and sat eve.
Perfect for families.
Short walk through the field to local brewery.

Disliked Needed cash for shop if under £5
20p a min for a shower.

From the manager: Hi, Thankyou for your review. As a small seasonal business I'm afraid we do have a minimum card payment of £5 otherwise it wouldn't be viable with the amount of interest they charge, and if we didn't charge for the showers people stay in them for sooooo long we end up running out of hot water which also gets complaints ! At least this way everyone who wants one gets a hot shower ! Glad you enjoyed the playground and brewery.

Liked The welcome sets the tone for your stay at any site you visit. This one will not disappoint as the welcome is very warm.
The family who run the site have been doing so for a few years and it shows. Everything you need is within your easy reach. Right down to the shop selling tent pegs as well as the other basic essentials you need.
The pizza shack (come horse box) is well worth a visit. Again ran by the family it puts local high street vendors to shame.
Great play area for the kids or grandkids, which is perfectly located in the centre of the site.
However be mindful that the area is popular and I’m guessing will be busy at times, but no stres as there is plenty of room on the camping field. Hopefully we will return in the future to share stories.

From the manager: Thankyou so much for your lovely kind review. It was a pleasure to meet you and your family and hope to see you again.

Liked Really lovely site, immaculately kept, friendly and helpful people. Very high winds meant we cut our stay short but that’s just luck of the draw!

Disliked Noise from the quarry through the night led to disturbed sleep. Not sure if we were just unlucky or if it’s a regular thing.

From the manager: Hi Glad you enjoyed your stay, unfortunately there is sometimes noise from the quarry it all depends on the wind direction which is sadly out of our control.
