Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked: Simple but well maintained facilities. Shower roomy and clean. Pitches not squeezed together so still had space. Beautiful views. No fuss getting in. Private gate with code. Someone came down to welcome us and go through essentials despite torrential rain.
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Secure site with spacious pitches and clean modern facilities. Campfires and barbecues allowed. Close to town for shopping.
Disliked: Loud music coming from the nearby rugby club until around 11pm probably because we stayed on a Saturday night.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked: Was there for the Tractor and Engines Festival weekend. The site was fully booked, but there was still plenty of room to feel comfortable. Nice and safe with the coded gate locked at night. From the owner (Benji) Site Manger (Andy) down to the volunteers (Steve and Sue) to all the bar staff in the pop up bar, was made welcome and nothing was too much trouble for them, even when they ran out of hogoblin beer!!! Nice and clean toilets and showers. Very dog friendly. Will be using this site again in the near future as it is close to my Daughter and her family.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: As a solo motorcyclist I found the site staff very friendly and helpful with plant of space to pitch my Lone Rider Moto tent and park my motorbike inside. Although the facilities were minimal they were very clean and the showers were warm enough for a good shower. Plenty of electrical hookups if required. There is a good 4 and 5 G phone signal with very good speeds to live stream if required. Good clean well maintained sight and easy to book with good communication via email and very good value for money.
Disliked: I didn't find any walking routes, but there again I didn't look, the town is within easy staggering distance.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: The campsite is on a working farm and is nice and quiet. It is also very flat which made it perfect for pitching a tent. It’s very well maintained with everything kept neat, clean and tidy. There are two toilets on site as well as two shower rooms with a toilet in each one and all are modern and kept very clean. There are also two sinks with drainage boards for washing up which are outside, to the side of the washrooms.
Disliked: Nothing, but if I was really being fussy it would have been nice to have a bench / low shelf in the shower room so you could place your bag down and have a rummage around without putting it on the floor. However, it is worth noting that hooks are fitted in both the toilet and shower rooms but a bench or shelf would have made things a little easier.

Liked: We love our stay at Yellowtail Campsite. The campsite was lovely and quiet, lots of flat space for our tents, great toilet and shower which were very clean and had plenty of hot water. We rented a fire pit from the campsite and it made our stay perfect. Campsite staff member Andy was also super helpful and friendly.
Disliked: Nothing.
