Liked: Don’t be put off by the Karen’s in the reviews, it’s a campsite it has the things you need and that’s that. The showers were very good and toilets clean ( toilet roll provided) it was busy when we stayed but was still quiet enough to sleep! The pond area is something else, such a nice place to go to! Went for hike around the area it’s was so lovely we saw on foot wild deer, bird of prey, friendly horses we fed and a quiet lake walk. This site is right in the middle of Bath and Bristol we visited both! Recommend the site!

Liked: Location
Disliked: Area is not flat and very wet causing muddy conditions in areas. As we were leaving the tires spun do to the conditions ( not the area was already a mud pit) and a gentleman took it upon himself to yell at us for making a mess and making the park look nasty.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: The site was in a lovely location. It was really peaceful and all the campers were super respectful.
Disliked: Although this is a cheaper camp site, sadly the facilities were poor. They only had two toilets in the womens, and one in the men’s. (Plus a urinal) There was no hot water for washing dishes, and the only tap with a ‘Drinking Water’ sign didn’t work, so we were unsure if the others were safe to drink. There was a charge of £6 per dog which I normally don’t mind paying but here I didn’t really see what that cost covered. We didn’t have any welcome into the site, no one checked we’d even booked so we just parked where we thought was best. The toilets do not have any lights, nor is the camp lit of an evening which made things a little difficult.
