From the manager: I am so sorry this was your experience with the tent, because I manage and clean the site personally. I had wished you had come to me straight away so your concern could be rectified.

Liked: what a fabulous place, loved the back to nature and the covered area was superb with the facilities. It's remote but this is just what you want to get away from all your stress in life. Next time I will bring a few more essentials to cook breakfast outside. I have been to places where Electric is in the tents but for one night was fine. Luck enough to see a small deer close to our tent in the early morning.

Bell tent
Liked: 99% tranquil, loads of space around pitch, lots of animal life, saw deer, bats, frogs, butterflies and other insects. Loos and kitchen were close but hidden well within the trees. Had a real fire going next to the tent to cook on and sit by, but there was also a gas stove in the kitchen area for when it rained. Maybe be aware: Quaker Hall over the road had a big weekend party for both nights we were there. We didn’t mind the music but it was loud enough to hear at the pitch.
Disliked: The boiler hot water wasn’t sign posted so we had cold showers at first. We spotted the screen/digital dial to turn it on by chance while using the stove. Look for a cut out in the wooden counter, left of the stove.
