It was very magical, romantic break and we will be back
Camping lodge
Liked The lodge was absolutely stunning. Dave the host was very nice and welcoming. Toilets were very clean all the time. We really enjoyed the animals, especially the kittens 😍 We really liked everything and definitely we will be back.
Disliked It’s not a dislike but the information about bringing your own logs would be useful.

Would probably choose one of the other rooms next time.
Reindeer Loft cabin
Liked The animals. The owner. Sarah was very nice and informative when showing us around.
Disliked The room was above a barn. very smelly and lots of flies in the room. The heater didn’t heat the room as the heat just passed through the gaps. We stayed in the reindeer loft. Maybe add curtains to the windows as people could see into your room.

Okay place for a night on the way somewhere with kids. Very quirky.
Camping lodge
Liked The location was good for visiting the Fleet Air Arm museum.
The owners were very friendly.
The reindeer were good to see and there were lots of other animals.
Kids thought it was magical.
Facilities were clean.
Disliked It could do with more bathrooms.
I didn’t read the small print properly and had not got camping mattresses or mats, so the wooden benches were very uncomfortable and kids kept rolling off in the night.
I am allergic to cats and the cats kept wanting to come in too, which was irritating. The kids adored the cats though.
The place could do with more maintenance - swing wasn’t in good shape, mermaid feature not working.

Would highly recommend to anyone who loves animals and the outdoors.
Reindeer Loft cabin
Liked The peacefulness, the reindeer of course and the cats! The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. Truly a unique experience sleep above reindeer.
Disliked Not a dislike as such, but whilst I appreciate it’s glamping, access to a communal fridge would be so helpful.

My partner, myself and our two…
Camping lodge
Liked My partner, myself and our two boys aged 6 and 8 had the most wonderful stay ever! The accommodation was perfect, more magical and special than we had hoped. The animals are incredible especially the reindeer who we got to mingle with and feed. Sarah and Dave are the perfect hosts and went out of their way to make our visit truly wonderful. Cannot fault the place! We are going back in December and no doubt many more times.

An excellent site for animal lovers.
Ocean camping pod
Liked Lovely site and the children were in their element with all the animals!
This was our second stay and was just as much fun as the first.

Friendly staff, unique experience.
Dome camping pod
Liked Welcoming hosts, had a whole farm tour which was wonderful. Obviously farming is a passion of Sarah’s. Beautifully lit fairy lights and some gorgeous animals who are clearly loved in such a rural location. Happy to help and suggest places nearby to visit. Secure site.
Disliked Spider nest within the artificial flowers of the dome insides. No pegs to hang towels up in bathroom (would be really helpful please!). Slippery wooden outer circle where BBQ area is where wood has rotted but nothing a bit of TLC can’t fix.

Great place!
Powered grass tent campsite
Liked Loved all of it the hosts were lovely and so friendly it was very safe for the children. It was quiet and easy to find. Would definitely stay there again!
