Liked: The view was amazing. Had a very relaxing and peaceful stay. Owner was very friendly and welcoming on arrival and was able to pick my own pitch. The indoor space for wet days was a great bonus. Fridge/Freezer also available. Toilets and showers were extremely clean. Couldn't have asked for more.

Liked: Beautiful views, quiet location But it is a working farm so you should expect noise associated with that well maintained, clean friendly and helpful host A nice lounge area and washing up facilities indoors We were allowed to use our off the ground log burner. This made all the difference to our stay.
Disliked: I can’t think of anything I didn’t like.

Liked: Helen was a truly amazing host, so welcoming, helpful and friendly. Site is T shaped with several pitches on the left along the top, the rest running out to the view, 3 on the left, 2 on the right (alongside the barn) First to arrive and spoilt for choice we opted for the furthest pitch with open views in front and to the side. Only 5 pitches were taken and as non are sectioned off we all spread out, with Helen kindly lending us an EHU extension. Facilities whilst rustic were clean and we found everything we needed. Co-Op 5 mins drive in Fleckney. A slow walk to Foxton Locks via Gumley took about 90mins with open countryside views all the way. A wonderful stay at a beautiful, peaceful location we shall most definitely return.
Disliked: Leaving!!

Liked: The tranquility, spotless facilities, location, host. The campsite itself is beautiful. The grass is flat, perfectly manicured and surrounded by trees and shrubs. There is a gorgeous view across the valley. The facilities are advertised as “no frills” but we certainly thought that this vastly undersold them. There is a gorgeous barn with a fridge and freezer, sofas, games, books and a dining table. There are also flushing toilets and very clean, hot showers. Most of all, the host is incredibly friendly and accommodating. We all wish to return to this site. Shame it’s so far away from where we all live.
Disliked: Nothing major but some of the solar lights detracted from dark night zone.
