Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Nice and tidy site, excellent helpful and cheerful owner. Facilities spotless and if you can call loos charming they are charming. Very quiet, plenty of wild life and the sky at night was great with no light pollution.
Disliked Single track lanes only way to walk to the pub. Not the sites fault but something my wife did not like.

This is a real gem of a campsite
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Immaculate campsite situated in a beautiful location with great facilities
Teresa , the host was very helpful and helped me find a lovely local walk to the ponds.
The campsite is stunning and I had a wonderful stay there in my micro camper van.
The depth of bird song was amazing and the dawn and evening chorus were stunning to listen to.
The campsite was pretty empty so lots of space around the van.
Also only 35 mins from my home town so quick to get to.
Disliked Absolutely nothing !!!

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Nice quiet campsite, good facilities (a little old fashioned but hot water and good showers) in converted barns. Lots of water points and recycling bins. Great location for lots of outside activities.
Disliked Very sloped field but we did get a fairly even space at the top

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Friendly owners and very clean facilities with the best showers!!
Disliked Nothing negative about the campsite itself that I can think of, we just were unfortunate that there was a group of 6 friends who took the 12pm til 8am quiet hours very literal and every played their music loud up right up until midnight on both nights we were there …even my ear plugs didn’t cope with the base sound. It’s such a shame that for some people camping equals party time, disrespecting both the quiet countryside setting and fellow campers who have chosen a smaller campsite deliberately, looking for a peaceful and relaxing time
. There’s nothing wrong with being social with friends on a campsite, but they could’ve been more considerate to the other families and couples on the site and turned the music down off around 22:00…or at least further down..

Expensive for what you get.

Liked Tranquility.
Disliked Price paid for what you get. Having to pay extra for showers. Only two sinks in unisex toilet block. Dogs coming up to our pitch with leads on but loose. Walk to pub a mile through lanes and not safe with young children.

Liked Beautiful small site, very well kept with excellent showers (for a small fee). The field is on a slope so make sure you bring your chocks. Not too far from Bristol and a great local pub nearby.
