What customers say
Beautiful, serene campsite in stunning scenery with a river. Guests rave about spotless facilities, friendly staff, and well-kept pitches, many by the river. Great for dog owners, with excellent walks. Local pub nearby. Minor Wi-Fi/dishwashing quibbles, but overwhelmingly positive with many wanting to return.

Liked Spacious pitches, not overcrowded as it's a capacity is a nice adequate amount. The site wardens were both lovely. Beautiful views. One of the the best sites I've ever stayed at. I can't wait to return. Highly recommend. Love the microwave and fridge and freezer and boardgames availability.
Disliked Nothing.

Staff lovely.
Stayed out of season.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely review.
We’re really pleased to hear that you enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere of the site and that the setting by the river made your stay even more special. It’s great to know you found everything clean and that the quiet, out-of-season stay allowed you to fully relax and enjoy the surroundings — especially the views across the fields.
Excellent facilities and all immaculately maintained

Liked Friendly reception from the owners. Immaculate facilities and knowing that I had a muddy day in the hills after I checked out, they even offered their showers when I was finished!

Not a down side but you need to have a towcar or small camper van to get around if using as a base narrow roads on route,
Would return if needed a safe clean friendly site.

Liked WOW what a gem ! warm welcome on our arrival this site is immaculate.
Our motorhome pitch was lovely the river literally ran behind us with stunning mountain views. facilities were very clean with hot showers. For dog owners the off lead dog field was massive our lad loved it with his ball. Pub only a 10 mins walk along the river. This site is a credit to the wardens who keep it immaculate , we will defiantly return.
Disliked Absolutely nothing to dislike just going home

Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Lovely welcome. We were given a hard standing with Astro turf although we had booked a grass pitch. This proved to be better as we had some rain and we were quite sheltered. Our awning pitched well on the Astro turf too. Great views, river side, beautiful shower/toilet block. They were very clean and warm. Brilliant dog field which we often had to ourselves. Our dog was able to have a really good run. A great start to our holiday.
Disliked Nothing to dislike!
