What customers say
This tranquil, spacious, well-run campsite offers clean, basic facilities with an eco-friendly, back-to-basics vibe. Guests loved the friendly, helpful owner, Jason, big pitches, and lovely woodland walks. Fire pits are a hit. Most loved it, though a few mentioned minor facility hiccups (water pressure/hot water) and some found it pricey.

A great spot that felt 'wild' and was well maintained.
Littlewood primitive forest floor tent campsite (wild)
Liked The campsite was lovely with different areas to suit different tastes in camping style; we opted for the woodlands pitch which was beautiful and felt secluded whilst having the benefit of the facilities.
Jason was always on hand to support the guests and was straight to the rescue when both showers needed a gas change!
Disliked Nothing.

One of the nicest small camp sites we have visited.
The Meadow primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Well managed site, good sized pitches, spotlessly clean facilities and some good walks from the site. Great communication from Jason who was always around to provide information regarding the site and its surroundings. Felt like a proper back to basics site without having to dig your own latrines!
Disliked Nothing

Wonderful site. Lovely staff. We’ll be back!!
The Clearing primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Wonderful campsite. Lovely setting. Just what we needed. Basic, but working facilities. Picnic benches with every pitch (in ‘the clearing’).
Disliked Dog poo left by another group in the middle of the communal area. We told the campsite owner upon departure. He was brilliant at dealing with the situation.

A lovely stay and we would come back. Thank you!
The Meadow primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked We loved the open space and lots of room that we had as two biggish families, as well as the organised layout of the three camping areas with the shower/toilets/kitchen centrally located.
The host was so friendly and helpful as well, and we loved how organised and green conscious he was.
Disliked It did take some logistics to organise our recycling at our tents (we should have brought more bin bags) but very clearly organised best the toilets.
