Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Loved the homemade steak and ale pie, very friendly staff and the hot shower was very welcome. I genuinely would recommend the site.

Disliked: The only thing that could be improved apon is the hot shower which takes two one pound coins, I was undressed put the money into the slot and one coin did not register for whatever reason, meaning that I had to get dressed walk to the car and get another coin. So the moral of the story take a spare coin to the shower. The hot shower was wonderful.

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked: Simplicity of the site, friendliness of the owners in the pub and the pub itself was really good. We spent 2 nights here and the morning views out over the fields and cows were great. Our little ones loved the sheep and cows being so close. Loads of space and friendly neighbour campers also. We used this for a base to go to Longleat and Cheddar Gorge - it’s great for that and we will be back!

Disliked: £2 for 6 mins of hot water to shower and no hot water at the sink for washing up Not a like or dislike but it's not lit anywhere at night so bring a decent torch.
