We pitched up at the back of the site where there was a little stream and tiny waterfall which sets the mood brilliantly.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Fabulous premises, so peaceful and accessible. We loved the stream, the chickens and sheep, and the sunrise and sunset views. Clean toilets and shower.
Disliked Not a problem as we stayed when it was quiet, but during busy times jsut the one shower might mean long waiting times.

Loved it!
Unpowered grass motorhome site
Liked Peaceful setting in the middle of a field on a farm with horse, chickens, cockerel, sheep etc. A little brook runs around two edges of the field. The toilets and shower are basic but spotlessly clean and well maintained.
Disliked Just a caution - the entry to the site off the main road is tight. Easier if you approach it with a right turn.
