Great for back to nature experience. Don’t go if you want any frills.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: We, as a family live the off-grid style camping and have camped at many sites where it is back to basics with just compost toilets as the facilities.
The best part was that the limit the number of pitches, which meant we were very spaced out and once dark, all you really saw were the campfires glowing in the distance.
Ground was very lumpy which made pitching a larger tent very hard. Would recommend an Inflatable mattress to get round this.
Honesty shop - so nice to see it being used, although be warned it literally is only coal, kindle and logs (there is a farm shop up the round - maybe opening times could be added to the board outside the honesty shop).
Disliked: Grass around the circumference of the field and in pitching areas could do with being kept cut shorter, along with paths being cut in through the middle to make a path to the toilets - the field is full of clumps of thistles and nettles so you had to navigate round these to get to the toilets. Even with wellies on, they were taller than the toddlers wellies, which then resulting to banshee wailing as their knees fell victim.
For a zero manned site with very basic facilities the cost is a little high.
