Unpowered grass and earth tent site (woodland)
Liked: The place is so peaceful and calm.. short walk to Harkstead beach but it’s right on a river beach too .. clean facilities and love they added picnic benches to the pitches… can’t wait to go back as you just switch phone off and relax while your there … had lunch in a pub one afternoon but rest of time took advantage of being in mature watching pheasants and deer
Disliked: Only a personal thing I wish the fire pits were wider as I tend to cook in and on the fire so makes it a bit difficult but not even a negative thing at all

Badger Sett shepherd's hut
Liked: The peace and tranquility. Being so close to nature. All the little extra touches like hot water bottles, additional blankets and tea and coffee in the huts. The fact that the site is in woodland but so close to the beach too. The pitches are so private and not like commercialised sites at all. Eco friendly.

Fox Den shepherd's hut
Liked: The shepherd's hut was dreamy with your own fire pit and wood included. The site was in a gorgeous setting with amazing views and a short walk to the beach, which was stunning at sunset. There was also lovely places/ pubs to visit in the local area. Facilities were great, with your own toilet and shared shower with the other hut. Staff were friendly and easy to contact. Our stay was perfect, we would definitely recommend, with secluded camping pitches too. We would love to come back!
