Powered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: The location and views were lovely, really welcoming and friendly staff
Disliked: The facilities are good but not very clean..washing up and toilet facilities were kept clean but the showers were full of mold and grime and didn’t smell very pleasant and neither did the communal fridge! On our last evening we came back to a large flock of sheep around the campsite, which were left roaming all night around our tent. I love the outdoors and animals but to be woken up to sheep nibbling my tent or head butting it to investigate became quite annoying at 2,3,4am…not to mention the smell and the poo the next morning surrounding the tent. Sadly we left the site with a more negative feeling, with the car and our kit stinking of sheep poo. Very sweet animals but I didn’t really want to be sleeping with them! It was quite a shame really as the site has amazing potential and the rest of our stay we enjoyed!

Bramless primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Staff were very friendly and helpful. Views were great. Facilities clean (especially with all the mud that was around that weekend) and spacious. Nice little shop. Lovely seeing all the horses on their daily treks.
Disliked: Not being pitched next to our daughter as requested on booking, although we were only about 6 pitches apart.

Bramless primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Facilities kept on top off always topped up, clean and any issues Jamie was on it straight away after a text to let him know. Had the heavy horses available as an activity. Lots of areas available to take dogs for walks.
Disliked: Travelled as a party, 1 tent 1 camper van asked to be together as came as a group but still got separated and spread apart despite asking and it being quiet. 11pm Silent curfew was not policed and neighbours were noisy well after 12am.

Bramless primitive grass tent campsite (comfort)
Liked: Local corner shop
Disliked: Was put in a field which was absolutely full of animal poo! I understand it's a horse trek site but this was more like sheep poo! Could not drive car anywhere near the tent which was awful for pitching up and taking down There is no playground like stated! Really uneven ground nothing like we have stayed at before

Liked: Lovely campsite, the girls loved the stream, looking at the horses and toasting marshmallows by the fire. Facilities were clean and it was really handy having a fridge and freezer next to the washing up area. Also have to mention the amazing views.

Bramless primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Really liked the atmosphere and how friendly the staff were, I would definitely go back the scenes surrounding the campsite are beautiful
Disliked: The only dislike would be that we were in a sheep field (we agreed to this upon arrival but maybe should of said no) there was sheep faeces all over the pitch site which is to be expected but could have been cleaned prior to us parking as we had it all over our shoes and in the van by the end of the trip

Bramless primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Had a 2 week solo trip with my dog, I cut my trip short after 12 nights due to the weather. Over all I really joyed my stay. Views are beautiful, hugo my dog enjoyed cooling off in the little stream on the warmer days. I was in the bambles field which I have to say is very uneven. While I was staying the sheep joined the field and Tony very kindly put a fence around to stop the sheep coming to close to the tent. Having the fire pit was great and were I did most of cooking. Some nice walks from the campsite. The camp shop is great for milk, bread. Would like to say a big thank you to Ann and Tony site wardens.
Disliked: Did think it was a little over priced. Facilities are basic, but ok

Liked: Loved this campsite, quiet, serene, next to a lovely stream. Toilet block was mixed gender with showers included. The site was shut down a few times every day for the sheep to go into the yard and then back again which the kids loved (so did i) Cafe was lovely and the chef accommodated our veggie kid with a special breakfast of his own. Well worth a stay and we will be back.
