Liked Booked 1 hr before arrival. - not many sites can accommodate this

a real working beautiful farm with animals

Everything felt unrestricted and free with a really pleasant owner making sure we were ok and thanking us for our business on arrival and departure

A feel of wanting to deliver an excellent service

Toilets and showers were clean that could do with an upgrade but this didn’t, detract from the enjoyment of staying there

Disliked None

Liked Lovely campsite, idyllic setting on the farm. Facilities were well maintained and easily accessible. Well situated to access Gloucester, Tewkesbury and the Malverns

Disliked Limited information and assistance on arrival. Found our way around ourselves.

Liked The Shepards hut was lovely and cosy, came with all amenities that could be needed, owner of the site even provided a fan for the warm nights. Bed was comfortable and outside was a fire pit with some wood for a fire. Showers and toilets clean. This weekend away was exactly what I needed to help shut off. Added bonus was the baby farm animals further down the camping field. I had a lovely stay and most definitely will look at booking again in the future.

Liked Lovely little campsite. My family and I are new to camping and found the farm to be quiet and relaxing. Nothing is too much for the owner and he came around every day to check if all was ok which I thought was a nice touch. The toilets and showers were kept clean. When camping you can’t ask for anymore.

From the manager: Thanks very much for booking.

Thanks got lovely words in your review.

See you again soon.

All the best

Liked Unrestricted hot water

Disliked The shed and porta cabin toilet facilities are insufficient for the number of guests. They were not clean in part because they were overloaded mainly because they are falling apart. When a girl walks out of the mens urinals as it was the only sink available and where the floor is collapsing you know things are desperate. And no-one knew where the fresh water taps were.
This site has had little or no effort put in and expecting normal prices.
The truth is had I not paid in advance I would not have stayed
Sunday morning was greeted with the 4x4 running in and out of the yard with a child driving.
I have stayed on many working farms and you accept working noise but this was unnecessary and just added to the feeling that guests are not a priority just an income

From the manager: Part of the comments is complete lies.

My office will be attempting to get it removed.

All water points are labelled.
Loos are regularly cleaned.

Toilets are only as good as the last person left them

Eg this weekend i did a check and found someone had been sick uk 1 toilet block wall.

There are signs requesting that anyone contacts us. No phone calls were recieved.

Maintenance is always happening.

This customer was clearly unhappy. Thanksfully he is in a VERY small minority.

Really annoyed that he lied in his comments. I have photos that prove he has lied. !!

Liked Lovely small relaxed feeling, clean site on a small farm. Gaffer was friendly and relaxed about arrival/departure times.

Pitch size was great. Could pitch up anywhere in the non-electric space, no designated spots. Our cocker loved it.

Disliked The kitchen & personal washing facilities were plentiful, however had a strong waste water odour and could be cleaner.

From the manager: Hi thanks for your business.

We have signs asking people to raise any problems

Kind regards

Liked Hosts were lovely, farms animals were a big hit! Pitches were nice and spacious!
Location was perfect for what we came to do.
We would come back if there were more toilets.

Disliked Toilets! - this is the only reason we wouldn’t come back. People were queuing to use the toilets. On our last morning one of the toilets became blocked which was a nightmare! Thankfully quite a few people were leaving but if the campsite was full it would have been horrendous!

From the manager: We have signage up no one reported anything.

I noticed there was a flush box failed and I put it right when I was doing the cleaning.

Liked Simple and fairly peaceful, value for money. Easy to find. Working farm so animal noise to be expected.

Disliked Very basic ablutions - no feminine product bin was a pain and they could do with just 1 shelf in each shower room so you have somewhere to put your things.
The dogs on the farm are loose, just FYI if you have a reactive dog.

From the manager: We are a rural working farm that is running a small camp site.

I am not running a 5 star hotel. I not you actually booked the cheapest type of pitch.

Even some 5 star hotels dont have the femine bins.

There are many bins outside.

I have had cancer and now have a stoma bag.
I bag mine up and actually take it home. !

Liked Kleinschaligheid, mooi natuurgebied om te wandelen of fietsen. Douche en toilet bij elkaar in één ruimte, meerdere cabines beschikbaar. Goede waterdruk! Op de kranen bij de wasbakken zelfs iets te hard.
Tip: een rekje in douche om je shampoo op te zetten.

Disliked Blaffende honden en iets gedateerde toiletgelegenheid met hier en daar wat spinnen.
Advies: deksels op de afvalbakken zodat afval er niet uit waait over het terrein.
