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.

Liked Lovely location, Paul made us feel very welcome. Basic, but well kept facilities. Would love to pop back. Very close to Hereford but felt like miles away. Great value!

From the manager: Hi Stuart
Thanks for leaving us feedback. As a small business we really appreciate input from our campers. This year we operated as a simple pop up site with limited facilities. Next week, the campsite will be returned to our sheep! In 2026, we hope to introduce lots of new facilities (subject to planning approval) to make the camping experience even more enjoyable. Hope to see you again then.

Good site great for kids with the animals
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Location was great. Kids loved the tour of the animals and picking the chicken eggs each morning. Paul and his family was super welcoming and helped us with jump starting car after kids charged phones in car and run battery dead 🙈 flat site and a nice size. Close to local pubs and shops. Quiet location. Shower available in portaloo style with a new toilet block.
Disliked Could have done with warm running water for sink. Taps in toilets could have flowed better.

From the manager: Hi Jason
Thanks for staying with us and for leaving a helpful review. Glad everyone had a good time and hopefully your battery is holding its charge now!
All points noted and agreed regarding the hired in toilet block. Next year we hope to have our own purpose built shower and toilet block (subject to planning)! We've had some great feedback and ideas to build on next year. Hope to see you and your family soon.
Amazing family friendly site, fantastic price. Stay here!
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked An absolutely brilliant campsite, we enjoyed our stay from start to finish. The owner Paul is very friendly and welcoming, he is happy for you to pick a pitch when you arrive and he regularly visits the field to come and welcome newcomers and check in on existing customers. Toilets and washing up facilities all clean and tidy. Fire pits available for £5 for entirety of stay (bargain!) and big bags of mixed wood also £5. There is a 9am animal tour every morning, my boys both went every day, they absolutely loved it. Hats off to Primrose, a really special site.
Disliked Only thing needed is more soap in the bathrooms please, although there was plenty of sanitiser to use when it did run out.

From the manager: What a lovely review. Thank you so much for staying with us at Primrose. We really appreciate the time you have taken to share your feedback with us and future campers. All of this helps us to plan for next year and find out what works well and anything we need to do better. We try hard to make our site family and budget friendly at the same time so your feedback on the smallholding animal tour and fire wood prices are super helpful. Apologies for missing the hand washing soap top up. That's my error, I'm easily distracted and chat too much at times! We hope to see you all again soon.

Der Beste Platz den wir in…
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Der Beste Platz den wir in 14 Tagen hatten. Ausstattung ist ok, der Platz ist sauber und weitläufig, hatten hier den besten Support und und sofort sehr gut gefühlt. Der Betreiber Keith ist ein sehr offener und freundlicher Gastgeber, macht zweimal täglich eine Tour um bei allen Gästen zu schauen, ob alles ok ist und holt morgens alle ab, um die Ziegen zu füttern.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Many thanks for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback Katrin. I'm so glad you had a good time on site and my brother Keith did a grand job looking after you and your family whilst we were away on a short break!
Hope you had a safe journey home.
Translation- The best place we've stayed in 14 days. The facilities are good, the place is clean and spacious, we had the best support here, and we immediately felt very comfortable. The owner, Keith, is a very open and friendly host. He tours the area twice a day to check on all guests and picks them up in the morning to feed the goats.
