Camping that feels right
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite (adults only)
Liked Generous pitch, great shower/toilet block, nice and clean. Underfloor heating makes it feel so smooth (50p for shower that's about 10 minutes). Wifi at pitch (could be stronger). Great spot, nice river walk to the next co-op. Feels like a real campground with facilities.
Disliked Needs campers kitchen and laundry to be perfect (they are working on it).
