What customers say
Well-kept, friendly spot with roomy, flat sites & nice river views. Staff are helpful, facilities spotless, and there's a great dog run. The pub's a big plus. Downside: toilets/showers are a bit of a hike from tents, not ideal for families with little ones or mobility issues.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Good couple of nights, might stay here again if in the area.
Unpowered grass site
Liked Great open field with tree shelter around the edges(kept the tent dry mainly), as it rained. Only a short 200m drive off the main road, so easy to navigate to without using much of the single track lane the site is situated on. Very peaceful couple of nights. Nicely kept field and roads and grounds on the site. Great prompt and friendly welcome from the reception on arrival.
Disliked Only one shower and sink in the toilet/washing block. I can see that being inconvenient in busy periods. The said block is quite a way from the camping ground at the back of the static site area(I drove to it). It seems it would be better situated near the camping ground as the static caravans have their own facilities. Also I have paid much less per night to stay in a tent at a smaller site and a similar sized site, with much bigger and better facilities for showering and washing etc.

Liked Lovely, quiet, well kept site. Park for children although it’s not really suitable for smaller children. Right next to the river with lots of paths down to see it and go for a dip if you like! Bins and chemical waste conveniently located. Grass pitches level. Close to town
Disliked Toilet blocks a good walk away,

We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back in the future.

Liked Pleasant gentleman who greeted us and explained where everything was. Good ground to pitch the tent on and plenty of space. Perfect enclosure for dogs to be let off the lead for a runaround and safe site to walk around. My daughter enjoyed the little park and it was flat enough for her to use her scooter. The paths were very well lit up.
Disliked I guess the only real issue was the toilet blocks being a distance away from the tent pitches but that didn’t really bother us as we enjoyed seeing the little gardens around the static caravans. We weren’t able to connect to any WiFi while we were there but we wanted more of a relaxed break without the use of phones.

Our most expensive site at £42 p.n. Inadequate service facilities.
Powered grass site
Liked Flat pitches with individual water supply at each 4 point hook-up.
Secure dog exercise area, allowing off lead opportunities (We had 3 dogs).
Excellent site for access to heritage railway.
Easy access to chemical disposal point and comprehensive recycling
Worth my star rating for these reasons.
Disliked !0 minute walk to the only toilet/shower block available, situated in middle of static caravan park - no disabled facility so if you have mobility issues (as I have) or if not self-contained and need access to facilities at night do not chose this site. Whist there we had up, to 5 other tents/vans on site most with well-behaved children. Even this low number resulted in queues for the single shower bay in each toilet area.
Apparently there was a bar on site but nobody told us of it. Manager was very off-hand and unwelcoming. No Wi-fi

Liked Lovly site , will return.
Had a quirky feel about the area.
Disliked If they could state clearly why they don’t want you to follow postcode .. because of very tight lanes … instead of saying post code won’t work that would make it easier for the travelers.
We didt follow postcode but we did follow satnav to site .. it does take you there as long as you can get down them lanes .. so wording needs changing on that

Overall great campsite, highly recommended.
Unpowered grass site
Liked Beautiful site. Tent pitches erea is kept well maintained and clean. Owner is very polite and helpful. Excellent little park for the kids to play on and is enclosed from the river
Disliked Only downside is the toilets ate a bit of a walk and out the way of the tent pitches so if you bring children who need to go regularly or in the middle of the night, then it's a bit of a pain haha.

Liked A really nice,clean and quiet site. Small park right next to the tent pitch and loads of room for children to play.
Disliked Toilets are a little bit of a walk not too far but for a lady in the middle. Of the night it’s a little off putting .
