A wonderful stay, glad we found this site, we'll definitely return!
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Really lovely quiet site. Great location for exploring the local area. Good toilet/shower block. Mostly level site. Easy check in.
Disliked Lots of rocks where we pitched that made pegging out challenging. Be prepared to lose some food to Pippin, the dog who roams free on site, she stole food from several guests during our stay. She is very friendly, just a food thief. The shower pressure & temperature is effected by the toilets flushing & taps being used. Not a huge issue, but not ideal. Toilets are marked as male & female, but could do with being unisex to reduce queues at busy times.
Save the phone number to call to check in before you leave home as mobile signal is spotty on site.
Great site, Toilet/Shower, Great view. What more do you need

Liked Fabulous premises, so peaceful and accessible. We loved the stream, the chickens and sheep, and the sunrise and sunset views. Clean toilets and shower.
Disliked Not a problem as we stayed when it was quiet, but during busy times jsut the one shower might mean long waiting times.
