Liked: Clear booking information and updates. Very friendly helpful staff. Perfect showers and toilets if required. Location within the forest is excellent for exploring. Pop up on site shop had everything. Kids played football well away from campers. Feeling of freedom and a friendly atmosphere with dog walkers, mountain bikers and families all happily enjoying the forest atmosphere. Pop up shop and facilities were very much welcomed and a great cafe stop for people passing by.
Disliked: Absolutely nothing to dislike.

Liked: This campsite is situated in the Cannock forest, its peaceful and beautiful camping amongst the trees plus access to the trails is right there. We are avid cyclists and this is by far the best place to stay in the area. We rode our bike to the cafe at birches each day for breakfast.
