What customers say
A peaceful, back-to-basics spot in a gorgeous rural setting, great value! Folks love the freedom to pick a pitch, the quiet, and the views. Farm shop, clean loo, water's there. Ideal for walkers near Macclesfield Forest. Poor phone signal. BUT no drinking water for many.

Liked Location
Disliked I booked this campsite for two nights. The owners were okay, but I didn't end up staying because there were so many flies! It was so bad I couldn't even open my car door. I had to leave, book another campsite, and unfortunately lost my money."

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We are very sorry you were unhappy with the field and claim there was a large amount of flies.
We were unable to find any flies ourselves when you were shown to the campsite and first mentioned them (despite being stood beside you).
We haven't had any other guest make a comment regarding flies, including on the nights you were booked in for. We keep the grass short and make sure all litter and any dog poo has been removed several times per day and facilities are cleaned frequently.
Unfortunately, nature is something outside of our control, however, we are a working farm and flies and bugs are part and parcel of staying in a field.
In regards to a refund for the stay, it is campsite policy that no refunds are issued within 7 days of the stay (you agreed to this at the time of booking). In addition to this, you never requested one, you just stated you had booked another campsite and you were leaving after less than an hour of being here.
We hope the campsite you actually stayed at was more to your liking.
A little gem if your prepared to be a little self sufficient

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Really helpful and friendly owners. Chilled and quiet. Great spot to walk up to Shutlingsloe or explore Macclesfield Forest from.
Alongside the farm animals there's plenty wildlife to spot if you're patient enough. Heron, hare and bats within a couple hundred yards of the site.
