Liked: Super spacious field which had stunning views to over looks. Toilets & shower block were kept super clean at all times. Pot wash area and drinking water space which were also kept clean. Staff super friendly & helpful on arrival. Very family friendly campsite. The Punch Bowl pub was a 15 minute walk over the farmers field. On site farm & activities for children.
Disliked: Nothing - everything was spot on.

Unpowered grass site
Liked: A great site with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. We didn’t venture into the farm as we had the dog with us but looked like there were lovely activities on offer for families. We checked in at 6pm which is out of staffing hours, this was no problem and we were sent relevant information on where our pitch would be prior to arrival. Pitches were spacious and facilities were clean, always available when needed, and more than adequate for our needs.
Disliked: We didn’t actually see anyone who worked there checking in on guests. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as we liked being left to our own devices however there is an 8pm noise curfew, this might be a tad on the early side but there were children still loudly playing very close to other guests vehicles and tents that had gone to bed at around 11pm. The quiet times possibly need to be relayed in the booking information to ensure all guests are aware and are not disturbing other site users. Only a minor grumble and we still enjoyed our weekend.

From the manager: Thankyou for taking the time to leave this review. The Farm Park is a separate business to the campsite and has its own opening times which are stated online at the time of booking. Unfortunately it is not possible to allow guests in after hours due to no staff being present, health and safety and due to the animals on site - THCP

Liked: Large pitches, very clean toilets and showers. Beautiful views. Shame about the weather meaning we got a car stuck in the mud. Thankfully a staff member came to our rescue and pulled us out with a tractor. It was a shame for the kids that they couldn't use the play park without having to pay to get in but the weather was awful anyway. We based ourselves here to get out hiking for a few days.

Liked: Due to unforeseen circumstances we was unable to attend. My 5 star review however is for how they represented the site after I emailed to inform them of this. The lady I emailed was very helpful and polite, they responded asap and was more than happy and sorted it out for us to visit at a later date. For me they were amazing site to deal with
