Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: No Frills as the sign says but a very comfortable and relaxing place to spend a few days camping. Water, clean toilets and a very concise site etiquette that enables visitors to enjoy themselves while respecting others peace and quiet. Very short walk down the canal and you're in shugborough hall and grounds. Peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. We'll definately be going again.
Disliked: Nothing.
