Quiet small site with very clean facilities
Primitive forest floor campervan or tent campsite
Liked Peaceful. Meet and greet with good tour.very clean bathroom areas.
Electric socket to charge devices.
Complimentary washing up liquid soap and toilet roll.
Owners friendly and helpful
Disliked Difficult to locate but owner gave good directions when we rang.
Lack of consistent hot water in shower
Pitch too small if we wanted to bring an awning to accommodate whole family
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thankyou so much for your review, we do love feedback. We are pleased you loved our site, with regards to the water that normally only happens when the holding tank is low, we do ask all campers to refil and to check it is filled after showering.
A campervan and awning would fit with room to spare, if however you also pitch a tent, as you did instead then you would need two pitches as the Large Campervan/Tent pitches are only designed for one or the other not for both.
Fabulous to hear that you would be happy to visit again
Many thanks
Janene and Paul

Excellent site with great facilities.
Benny the bell tent
Liked Thank you Janene and Paul for a wonderful few days staying in Benny the bell tent. You were so informative in your orientation of your lovely campsite and functionality of it all. It was wonderful to see my two eating s’mores round the fire and playing with sticks whilst listening to the sound of nature…it was so relaxing. The comfort of the bell tent was amazing and I loved my cosy double bed …it didn’t feel like camping. We would love to come back for more. I’d recommend to anyone wanting some peace and quiet.
Disliked Leaving school nest and stars was my only dislike!!

Friendly owners and campsite within easy reach of beaches
Benny the bell tent
Liked The bell tent and the siting of the tent. The quiet and all the mod cons of camping without the hassle.
Disliked The rest of the campsite was very shaded by trees
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review and comments, We are pleased that you enjoyed the position of the Bell tent, it does enjoy a sunny spot in its own garden and meadow away from our Woodland campsite.
It was a shame we had so much rain during your visit, during poor weather and dirty shoes in the toilet area is hard to keep on top of.. We noted that you gave us one point out of 5 for Child friendliness, how could we improve on this? what did your 13 year old find we were missing? we always aim to improve form the feedback we receive.
We hope you had a safe onward journey.
