Tent pitch
Unpowered grass tent site

Great for families very clean just a bit cramped .

Aug 2025

Liked The location was good . Hosts were friendly . Grass was kept lovely and short. Nice and safe for kids . Honesty shop was a nice touch . Pizza was amazingly good , thin crispy crust piping hot . Yum reasonably priced breakfast options too .

Disliked One shower too toilets , bit limiting. Shower pressure not great . Field is small so pitches are on top of each other with no option to space out . Only commenting because we prefer a bigger field with option to pick your spot.

From the manager: Hi I am glad you enjoyed your stay and the pizzas that you ordered. I am sorry you felt cramped, unfortunately you booked on our busiest weekend of the year so we were actually full. This is not usually the case as we are usually quieter but August bank holiday is well known everywhere for being very busy. We actually have one shower and two toilets for men and for women not for the whole site. The pod area has its own toilets and showers on top of this. As a remote site we can struggle a bit with water pressure but it depends what else is happening, if two people are washing up and some of the 10 showers on site are going it can affect it. I would also point out you turned up with a tent and a tent box on the car and you hadn't booked for both so this will have affected how you pitch. We can not allow people to choose their own spot because we had people on for one, two, three and four nights so to give people this flexibility of one night stays we have to allocate pitches. I am glad you would recommend us but felt I should respond to your negative comments so it didn't give people a false idea of the site.
