Woodland Wonder unpowered grass and earth tent site (pet friendly, woodland, six person)
Liked: Everything. Beautiful scenery. Amazing campsite. Alpacas were gorgeous. Felt very much out in the wilderness as you went down miles of lanes to reach it. We had the dog section which was perched on a slight hill in the trees. Was honoured to see cold tits and jackdaws feeding there chicks. Owners were amazing. Very polite and chatty and bent over backwards to try to sort any problems that occurred for us.
Disliked: Not a dislike as such but very unfair that I was the only one eaten by the few midges that are rarely there. It had to be me 😃

Poppy's unpowered grass tent site (two person)
Liked: Rural Setting, lovely & quiet. Felt really welcomed & lovely added extras with the honesty shop & onsite Alpaca shop. Loved how close you are with the Alpacas :) Stayed on the smallest pitch, was big enough to put our 4 Man Tent on, on a slight slope but me didn't mind at all as the pitch was enclose deith trees, loved the privacy :) We will definitely be returning with my 4 year old daughter when in the area, she'd love it!
