What customers say
A tidy, quiet farm campsite with top-notch, clean amenities like showers & a kitchen. Spacious spots have fire pits & picnic tables. Lovely, helpful owners & plenty of animals to see. Great for families seeking a chill vibe & farm learning. Watch out for distant road noise & tricky access.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked We are back here 3rd year now. Our children (girls) love it. They go to play with animals or swing, as soon as they open the eyes. They can also burn their energy there after overdosing on smores jumping on the trampoline.
We will be back next year too.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked It's such a lovely place to stay. Karen is so helpful and always so bubbly! The dogs are really lovely, too. always nice to see them when they pop over to the tent. The added extra of the benches and fire pits by the pitches is a lovely touch and helps when sitting eating food. This is our second visit, and we can't fault the place. The toilets and shower facilities are always topped up and kept clean and tidy. The washing up area is really nice too with the extra bonus of the gas stove too to heat up water! You can visit the animals too what's really nice and you can even get in with the pigs and say hello.
Definitely will be going again soon! 😁

Disliked Nothing

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Excellent pop-up campsite. Toilets and showers are clean, there's plenty of space around the pitches, and the kitchen facilities are great. More in the games area than expected, including a big swing, badminton, swing ball, giant connect four and a small football goal. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming, and let the kids help out feeding the animals.

Liked Beautiful quiet site with clean facilities, friendly farm animals, and great activity options nearby - walks, vineyards, orchards, etc. The campsite owners are lovely and helpful! Also great to have the firepit and picnic bench with each pitch.
Disliked There could be more toilets - when one wasn't working, it only left one for everyone on the site.

Liked We love this place….our second visit in 6 weeks. This time we took the dog! Great little campsite….Pitches well spaced out so you don’t feel on top of each other. Max 10 pitches too. Hosts very friendly. Lovely walks from campsite. Wish it was open longer!! Hope to come back for a future visit sometime!

A campers paradise
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked The best of the best family campsites. Really lovely family who run / own the farm / campsite, very welcoming and accommodating. All the farm animals are accessible and people friendly. The site is enclosed and safe place for children. There are lots of fun things in the play area for the kids to play with. The facilities are well maintained and clean. Two families were on their 3rd consecutive visit to the campsite and I totally understand why they keep returning. I've recommended this campsite to all my friends who have young children.
You won't be disappointed if you choose to camp at Deaks Acres
