What customers say
Great spacious spots, friendly vibe & heaps for families, with a playground & animals. Some facilities are a bit basic but others are modern & clean. Cafe's a winner, and it's a handy base for walks & sights. Some mention a bit of noise & busy times. Management's working on upgrades.

Superb
Powered grass site (water hook-up)
Liked A great place for kids to be entertained (by the mini-golf and foot-golf) but also to run free! We had a wonderful time a plan to return again soon.
Disliked Couldn’t work out how to make the shower go warm.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: So glad you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to see you again.
I just want to confirm for anyone reading that we do have hot water and plenty of it.
Always happy to assistant with the use of any facilities.
With regard to 7/10 score - this feels low for the experience received.
For context any score lower than 9 will impact a business from maintaining a score over 9 even when the majority of reviews are a 10/10.
Great back to basics site with family activities.
Unpowered grass tent site (solo, no pets, no cars)
Liked Stayed here for a night during a bicycle trip - nice flat pitch, plenty of info before the night and lots of activities on site. Very basic toilets which I don't mind and clear rules which I appreciate. Quick bike ride into the village where there's a couple of decent shops, which was a bit of a godsend for me after a long ride.

Liked The staff were all lovely and very helpful
There's was so much on site to do....
We enjoyed the Escape room, Archery, crazy Golf and Kick golf.
Disliked Although warned of one day where there was likely to be a power cut. There were several other unexpected ones over night.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thanks for the review and we are glad you enjoyed all the activities.
The planned power cut didn't actually materialize but we wanted to make sure everyone was prepared.
The over night ones were local general unplanned power cuts involving main overhead power lines in the area and nothing to do with the site at all.
