Edgehill Country Park

Thank you for the feed back. We do what we can to help our campers. We also keep various spares of equipment for the occasional mishap. It was a pleasure to have you with us. We agree the Rose and Crown in not only a nice walk but also a good pub. Do come again.

Thank you so much for the positive review. We are always relieved to know that our ethos is understood. Just natural camping with what we think are some bare essentials to make it more comfortable. Look forward to your return.

This site is intended to be as close to nature without too much roughing it. A modern amenities block would not fit the aesthetics nor reflect the true working countryside, which we try to inform others about. Our amenity block is regularly cleaned but those spiders hide away and come back out when we leave. Very frustrating. With it being harvest time there is a great deal of dust in the air. Toilets washed round and floor stiff broom washed. This is a painted block built rural amenity. No heating and No electricity. Hot water system installed using solar system to enable the luxury of a shower and dish washing facilities. This is not intended to be anything other than camping in a field with a bit of a bonus to feel civilised. The regularly cleaned basic amenities are on the edge of the field within the trees. It is not quite back to basics but in the countryside it works. We are sorry you feel unable to visit again.

Thank you for this response. We are very pleased you enjoyed the natural environment, created for people to reconnect in this age of automation and individualism. The environment we think is as close to nature as civilised can be without discomfort. We look forward to your return.

Thank you, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Michele

We are disappointed to hear about the toilets. Particularly as the maintenance staff were painting the ladies that weekend. You booked Sat afternoon to arrive that afternoon and we apologies that our warden was having a break, he is generally a warm welcoming character. We wish you happier stays where ever.

You are quite right-this is a lovely grass field with off grid hot showers/washing up and toilets. We always put friends together when we know they are meeting up, which is very difficult without prior knowledge, on a busy week end and on the arrival day. We were very pleased to have been able to reallocate before people arrived to achieve two double pitches opposite. Your preference to be on the large double pitches together allowed the friend arriving the next day to take the smaller pitch adjacent because we also relocated that person to enable this. We appreciated the thanks at the time for changing things around and enabling you to be with your friends. The BBQ area is available for all to eat and cook being about 50m from your pitch area. The weather was indeed intermittently wet. We are disappointed that the work involved in the above changes is not reflected in your review.

We noted that you and the friends you came with were disappointed that no fires are allowed on pitches. The reasons were Politely explained to your friends and no exceptions can be permitted. In addition the bank holiday is a more hazardous time for fires. The compromise this year is to have BBQs in a designated area away from tents. Thus avoiding, as much as possible, peoples irritation of smoke, smell, sparks and fire spread. This is for the safety of all. Incidentally, after many years of trading we do hope that we can one day make a profit. Pitch up, under important notes, states there is no electricity on site. We are disappointed this ‘killed your enjoyment‘ of the environment.

We are delighted you appreciated our ample quantity of free hot water. This is supplied by a solar system installed to enable a back to basics experience with some comfort. The grass pitch is lovely because it is well maintained by regular cutting and feeding. The toilets run into a septic tank which is regularly serviced. You did not mention the hot free showers which also run into the septic tank. Nor the free hot washing up facility. All these facilities are Included and therefore reflected in the price. As is the Arbiculture work in the surrounding woodland enjoyed by our visitors. The toilet block is repainted inside twice a year. The added hand basins installed outside the toilets but under cover will invariable attract snails and spiders which we humanely remove. Our spiders sometimes outwit our regular frequent cleans. We would love to have fire pits but sadly legislation and claim culture currently restricts us as does site damage. We aim to keep the site basic and close to nature with a little comfort.
