Unpowered grass tent site
Liked: Fire pits, Honesty shop, Goats in next field.
Disliked: Maybe an idea to collect the grass when cutting. Shepherd huts left vacant and listed unavailable online. Campsite on hill so limited decent pitches for tents.

Unpowered forest floor tent site (woodland)
Liked: The site is beautiful, so quiet and secluded and surrounded by wildlife. Facilities were very good, our girls particularly enjoyed the arts and crafts provided and meeting the horses nearby. Owner was very present, friendly and helpful. Loved being able to camp under the trees in the woods, felt like a real adventure! We will definitely be back and have reccomended you to our friends.
Disliked: Unfortunately there was a group of young lads pitched next to us who played loud music for most of the afternoon and evening. We thought groups of this nature were not permitted at the site.

Unpowered forest floor tent site (woodland)
Liked: My daughter (aged 10) and I, really enjoyed the layout of the camp. Pitches were good distances apart and despite all woodland pitches taken, all were respectful throughout the night. Facilities were brilliant. In working order and clean. The honesty shop was very helpful, too. Will definitely frequent this site.
Disliked: Signage could be better en route and had no clue what to do on arrival but people were helpful. Later saw someone in charge so no real issues.

Bell tent
Liked: I almost don’t want to say how lovely it was because I want to go back and have it to myself. We stayed in the bell tent and the camp beds made it really comfy. There was a fire pit just for us. Tea and coffee stuff to help yourself to if you forget to bring them. Pots and pans etc. Really well thought out. I’d class it as “not so wild” camping.
Disliked: We were near the toilet so could hear the door banging/squeaking shut lots in the run up to bedtime. The sink could have done with a drain.

Clean and tidy plenty of loo roll. Some good amenities.

Liked: We liked the remoteness of the woodland. The communal sitting room was quite well equipped, but could do with a couple sofa even recycled ones. Overall 9/10. Loos need larger bins for toilet rolls. Very hospitable, helpful and friendly leaseholder. Will definitely return.
