What customers say
This developing site offers a peaceful, back-to-basics getaway with friendly hosts and lovely rural views. Guests enjoyed the free-roaming farm animals, fire pits, and tree stump seating. While facilities are simple and the ground can get wet, many praised the tranquil vibe and the owner's passion for future development. Great for families or a quiet escape.

What a great site. James was…
Primitive grass tent campsite (no pets)
Liked What a great site. James was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. He explained his future vision for the site as it's in in infancy.
When you pay £12 for a night on a site and bear in mind James only receives £10.20 of this. How could you complain. It's a back to basics site. Small number of pitches. Cows in field behind. Hens and other birds wonder last your tent. People comment that there is only 1 toilet. But as a person who needs to go often this was not a problem at all. Always managed to go when needed. The pitches all have a free firepit. Just purchase logs from James. Also what a guy, so friendly and good to chat too. I dint realise you couldn't park car next to tent. This wasn't an issue, James provided a huge wheel barrow to get your stuff to the pitch. Also sorted me with a few beers after I ran out. Will definitely be going again. And looking forward to seeing the progress. Thanks for a great camp!

Primitive grass tent campsite (no pets)
Liked Beautiful scenery. Ducks/chickens wandering around. Wonderful pitches. Great set up with wildflowers and trees very thoughtfully put together and clearly Jamie the owner is passionate about improving the biodiversity of the site which is to be commended. Great toilet. Jamie also an excellent friendly host. VERY short walk to the pitch unsure what the previous reviewer was on about I carried all my gear (a lot) in one go solo.

First family camping trip under stunning star-filled skies.
Primitive grass tent campsite (no pets)
Liked Our very first family camping trip couldn’t have been more perfect! 🌿✨
Waking up to the sounds of cows, sheep, and chickens nearby was such a lovely experience, and the clear starry skies at night were absolutely breathtaking with no light pollution, just endless stars. ⭐️
James was incredibly welcoming, meeting us on arrival and showing us around so we knew exactly where everything was. The car park was only a short walk from the pitch, and although we carried most of our things ourselves, the wheelbarrow he kindly lent us was a huge help for the heavier bits!
A special touch was being able to buy fresh chicken eggs from James for breakfast too 🥚
Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better first camping experience as a family. Peaceful, friendly, and unforgettable! We’ll definitely be back! ⛺️💛

Level and mown pitches. No road noise.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked I was greeted by the friendly site owner James and was shown the orchard he planted a few years ago which is in the camping field. This consists of Apple, Walnut and Kiwi trees and will look impressive when the trees mature. It was good watching the gang of friendly free range chickens, duck and guinea fowl happily roaming the camp field. Located in a scenic area and ideal for cycling and walking as there are plenty of quiet lanes and nearby footpaths. Various supermarkets are also within ten miles. The site is in the early stages of evolving and I am sure will be very successful. Well done to James and shout out to his lovely dog Ruby.
