Would highly recommend if your looking for somewhere really quiet.
Power optional grass tent site
Liked Small site, nice host and the free roaming chickens were so lovely! Kettlewell for a small place had a decent amount of pubs / eateries if your not wanting to cook.

Superb small quiet site, with private pitches & stunning scenery

Power optional concrete slab campervan site
Liked Lovely site in a beautiful area. Very quiet with private pitches. Facilities kept very clean. Owner friendly and helpful but also left us to enjoy ourselves.
A great part of the country for walking.
Disliked A very minor point but a hook or two near the sinks to hang up washbags etc would be useful.
