Power optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked Well maintained toilet and shower facilities, very clean and hot water always available. Friendly and helpful owners. Quiet site with lovely local walks. Good distance to local tourist sites.
Disliked Space between pitches is a little cosy, no option to choose where to pitch (which we thought there would be based on the description) but this might be because there was a convention booked at the same time as us.
