What customers say
This family farm site has big pitches, friendly staff, and a cafe. Guests loved the animals, play barn, and views. Facilities like showers/toilets are usually clean. While some wanted more amenities during busy times and work is ongoing, many found it peaceful, planning return trips.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Fantastic first time camping
Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked A family of 4 2 kids under 8 and a dog. We absolutely loved our stay as first time camping the pitches are very generously sized. Clean toilets and showers no queuing but the site wasn't overly busy. Fantastic views from our pitch. The kids loved the goats and spent many hours feeding them. Most of the grass was mowed during our stay.
Cafe on site and alcohol is served which was a bonus to get a cold one during the heatwave! Lovely coffees for the morning!
Play area on site which is open to the public aswell, kids loved their time olaying in the sand
We will be returning!!
Disliked Would be great to have a dog lead hook up outside the toilets but not a dislike just a recommendation to make it easier for campers with furry babies

Anonymous Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The camping land although the far end the grass was very high and not maintained like the middle area
Disliked Everything was great apart from the bathroom and toilets that Unfortunately did not seem to be regularly cleaned
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We're glad you liked the camping land, the field has different areas for people to stay in, some people to choose to pitch up on areas that aren't mown as much as the set pitches.
The bathrooms and toilets are regularly checked and cleaned, we appreciate that there are times that they are not as clean as we would like, only the other day I needed to clean the toilet 3 times in less than 3 minutes. We will do more to check and clean them and hope our guests will also leave toilets in a suitable state ready for the next person.
Excellent campsite and really friendly owners.…

Friendly site
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely site, friendly owners. Nice cafe and play barn, great for younger children. Wi-Fi very reliable around the cafe and toilets, it didn’t stretch to our tent but we were right down at the bottom of the field. Nice that we can choose our pitch.
Disliked Queue for shower on bank holiday weekend, but owners are planning to install more showers.

Would definitely go back
Anonymous Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked The view was stunning and so quite, very friendly staff
Disliked The shower floors were coming away
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We're so pleased you enjoyed your visit.
Where there was a leak with the shower it has obviously caused the floor to slightly move, we will look at.
Great! Fully recommend
Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Great site, relaxed, friendly team running it and great for kids.
Disliked Slightly under resourced shower block.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We're pleased you enjoyed your visit.
We have plans to put in more showers.
A real hidden gem! What a lovely time and wonderful family run site.
Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked We found the farm campsite on pitch up and booked for a family weekend.
Great site, running water, electric hook up, washing up facilities (although no hot water), play barn is amazing for kids and only £2.50 for the day per child staying on site.
Great site for families, friends, couples, although it is very accommodating for children it is also perfect for people without kids.
Homemade cakes daily!
There are toys in the restaurant / cafe, toys outside of the main barn by the goats.
Goats and cow’s people can stroke.
The owners are absolutely lovely and work really hard.
We will be back and have already recommended to friends!
Disliked Only improvements could be more showers as only two (someone super selfish spent an hour in there at peak time!), or at least a sign to remind the selfish people that others are waiting and not to take the mick.
I think maybe the showers are too nice for campsite showers so people want to do their make up and take ages in there maybe?
An idea if there was another shower block built would be smaller shower rooms so more can be fitted in, and an area outside with mirrors also so people can dry hair and finish getting ready etc.
Also mirrors in the toilets behind the showers as currently none there would be amazing!

From the manager: We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. More showers are definitely planned and mirrors for the toilets.
