What customers say
This small campground gets high marks for friendly owners, cleanliness, and a peaceful vibe. Campers rave about spacious sites and beautiful rural views. Washrooms are clean and well-kept, with a handy communal fridge/freezer. Great spot for exploring local sights. A few noted minor hot water issues for dishwashing and occasional noise, but management's on top of things for a quiet stay.

A great friendly site.
Anonymous Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Very friendly owners, clean toilets and showers, useful to have a communal fridge and freezer. Spacious pitch, lovely countryside location.
Disliked First time camping, wasn’t prepared for the thistles in the grass, but to be fair we were offered a smaller pitch on the cut grass, but decided we preferred a bigger space.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Campsite was quiet for most of the week, everyone settled down around 10 which allowed the kids to sleep. Marie & co were very friendly & supportive - especially when we left our tent pegs in London! Horses were well cared for & our little girl Loved being able to say hi to them every morning. Facilities were always clean, site was regularly checked & toilet roll stocked up etc. showers & toilets were decent & made the week comfortable. If there were any issues we knew we’d get support from Marie straight away - a very lovely hostess!
Disliked Nothing to put here. Well absolutely stay again & highly recommend the site to friends and family!

Wouldn't stay if you have kids or dogs, or you like space
Anonymous Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Neat and tidy with nice horses
Disliked Small is an understatement. Only room for 6 tents and no space for dogs or children to be able to do anything.

Would not recommend unless looking for something basic for sleep
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Showers and toilets were clean, with hooks and shelving.
Disliked We were confused upon arrival to the site as it didn't look much like the photos when booking – it wasn't what we expected. It was cramped and the camping field was in actuality very small, much smaller than the photos suggest. No clear markings to demarcate pitches.
It seems there are electric hook up pitches, but they are never available for booking as they appear to be occupied by long term caravans/motorhomes, which changes the atmosphere of the site.
Wouldn't recommend especially to families – there was loud music with swear words playing till the evening, and thumping music elsewhere in the site playing past 10:30pm/11pm. In fact we saw 2 families arrive at the site & try to pitch up before leaving and not return.

From the manager: Hi I am so sorry you feel this way I normally greet every person that arrives on site but I have had a family issue this weekend and have kind of neglect my campers I do apologise. I wish you would of brought any complaints to my attention about music and swearing as I can’t deal with if I don’t no about them and would not of tolerated this on site. I don’t have any permanent people on site but I do have a couple of caravans that are mine that I rent out to holiday makers. I very rarely get bad reviews they are normally all positive feed back and we pride our selfs on a friendly peaceful stay. I’m sorry this wasn’t the case on your stay. I hope in the future you will give us another try and your experience will be better. Sorry again Marie
