Liked: The stay at Ashbourne woods was perfect! We went out of season so it was lovely and quiet and the wildcamp pitch we stayed on was well away from everyone else. I had a little wander around and even if it was busier the pitches are set back in the woods and are nicely spaced out so you always feel like you have privacy! The facilities were really good and always clean and by the looks of it they were in the process of building more shower and toilet blocks. The owners were really friendly and were happy to help with anything. Overall i couldn’t fault it.

Unpowered forest floor campervan site
Liked: Absolutely loved this site. As a solo traveller I felt very safe and welcomed. So tranquil and acres of forest to wander with or without dogs. All I heard was the birds and saw the most magnificent Buzzard fly up in front of me. Beautiful wild garlic growing, along with a few bluebells that made the walks enchanting. Hidden glades with firepits. Perfect for anyone wanting to immerse themselves in the forest but with the convenience of toilets, showers and little shop for essentials. A short walk from the nearby pub and the bonus of a very quaint composting loo for anyone venturing deeper in the forest!
Disliked: Nothing

Power optional grass and gravel caravan site
Liked: Nice woods, clean but basic facilities, the staff were very helpful and accommodating overall good. Nice walks in the woods the dog loved it.
Disliked: It rained most of the time we were there not the camps fault but it did make it muddy on the pitches.The road to the camp was very narrow being rural very pot holed not good for big vehicles, no passing places but only a short stretch also not the camps fault.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi Alan Thanks for your review I feel its a little unfair giving us a 6 out of 10, considering the amount of rain we have had this winter, as it is a woodland so it would of been muddy, most of the pot holes have now been dealt with by the council and even my husband had been out there with help to fill them in to make life easier for the customers, I feel the whole country is suffering with pot hole problems at the moment not just us. Kind regards Helen
