What customers say
This roomy, peaceful site gets a thumbs-up for its friendly owner, Paul, who runs fun animal feeding for kids. Guests love the clean facilities (portaloos, hot showers) and the lovely country vibe. It's great value, perfect for families or solo travellers wanting a quiet escape with lots of space. A few folks wished for hot water at the wash-up sinks and more recycling bins.

From the manager: Thank you for your review Charlotte. You’re quite right, we are only 4 miles from Hereford but far enough away to feel rural - Best of both worlds! I’m glad your children enjoyed the animal feeding sessions, we plan to have an even bigger variety of farm animals next year! Hope to see you again soon.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked We absolutely loved our weekend away at Primrose small holding. From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and a very safe environment for children. Loved the animal feeding at 9am each morning! The owners could not do enough for us, checking daily if we were all ok. It was bank holiday weekend so the site was a little busier, so extra toilets were brought in to assist. There was only one shower but this did not bother us, we just used it when we came back from a day of walking which was a very quiet time on the site, so no queueing. If you are happy for basic facilities at a very reasonable cost, with the warmest welcome from the owners, then I would definitely book here!

From the manager: Hi Emma, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a nice a review. Its great to hear you were able to relax and chill out whilst your children played. Our animal tour has proved very popular (it was very busy over the Bank Holiday weekend but that all added to the fun!
We appreciate your comments about the site facilities and we have lots more exciting ideas for new infrastructure and facilities ready for next year! Thanks again for visiting Primrose Smallholding.

Liked The family owners were really polite and welcoming. Would help when ever he could. Just had to txt to him. Felt very safe as the gate was coded. He came round in his truck many times a day to check everyone was ok and the facilities were kept clean. There is animals to see each morning at 9am you can go walk round with them. Feed the goats, let the chickens out and feed the sheep. My children loved how he answered all the questions. Would definitely like return next season.

From the manager: Hello Christine
Thank you very much for your detailed review. We really appreciate your feedback and you make several useful points about site safety and security. We do our best to make the site accessible but you're correct, it has an all round perimeter fence and coded security gates to prevent unwelcome visitors. I'm glad your children enjoyed the animal tour. We hope to expand this in time for next season as it has proved so popular. Sorry we ran out of fresh eggs, our little chickens couldn't keep up with demand! Hope to see you again next year.

From the manager: Hi Ann-Marie,
We really appreciate your feedback and its great to hear you and your children enjoyed the animal feeding sessions. Our site is far away enough to feel rural but close enough to make Hereford or the river Wye just a short drive away - best of both world we think!
We have much more planned for 2026 and we do hope you can visit us again next year.
