Primitive grass campsite
Liked: We had a brilliant 3 night stay with our 4 year old and dog. Loved the views.
Disliked: We knew how big the pitch was before booking but due to our tent size (6 man as we usually have 2 more children in tow), an extra metre squared might really have made all the difference to not having to park the car in front of the tent and block the amazing views.
