Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: This place was out of this world! So quiet and peaceful, full of nature and wildlife. We had the most relaxing nights stay. The stars on a clear night are insane. There were two loungers by the little lake, which were perfect for star gazing. We went on a lovely walk. So many animals to admire. Its perfect for a few nights stay. Thank you so much for having us. We will defiantly be back again!

Disliked: Toilets could be upgraded. And boards put down in some particularly boggy areas to aid cars when travelling in. But other than that it’s beautiful

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: All the site had to offer, the camp was remote enough to not have mobile reception but close enough to town to entertain the children. I will definitly be visiting again at some point.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Instructions received from owners was very clear on day of arrival. Owners are also on hand at all times, very helpful, friendly and approachable. We ran into an issue and were helped immediately! Pitches are spacious and private. Shower, water and toilet and located nearby. Very quiet and peaceful - it was fully booked when we stayed, and we still felt as though we were in out own world! Lovely stay.

Disliked: No phone signal - not an issue for us as we enjoyed shutting off from the world, but mentioning incase it is an issue to others.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Absolutely lovely place to stay! We stayed Monday to Friday. The kids loved the lake, exploring and fishing and we enjoyed the local family friendly pub near by. Sarah the owner was wonderful and very welcoming. Kids can’t wait to stay again. The wildlife was great and they caught lots of fish so they were very pleased with themselves! Great place to bond with family as no phone signal or Wi-Fi! Absolute heaven.

Disliked: Nothing!

Liked: Excellent setting with a beautiful lake at the centre. Easy to get too and a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Disliked: Grass was long even in the pitching areas and track to the site was pretty rough in places.
