What customers say
A tranquil, tidy site in lovely countryside. Praised for spotless facilities, hot showers, and welcoming owners. Enjoy the quiet, ample pitches, with great local walks and pubs. Notes on the slope, shower tokens/temp, and poor mobile/Wi-Fi signal.

Lovely site. I will be back.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely site, very relaxed
No EHU but easy access water points & really nice shower block in old stables
Washing up facilities & a freezer for freezer blocks
Not a lot local to site which is fine for me but there is a pub 20 min walk away
Disliked The only downside was the tokens for the shower. I didn’t have any change so the lovely owner Teresa gave me a freebie but I forgot to get any change for the 2nd night & obv it means you have to remember to go to the reception to get one!

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Calm atmosphere.
Friendly site owners.
Close to lots of walks and things to do.
Clean facilities.
Noisy campers were dealt with efficiently.
Disliked It was very sloped, we managed to find a flat-ish place for the tent in the end.
The accessible toilet/shower cubical had a step going up into it.
The fire pits and shower tokens were expensive.

I would recommend the campsite and would definitely go back again
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely clean campsite. The owners were nice and welcoming and helpful.
A lovely run pub (The Rising Sun). Run by 2 young ladies who produce lovely food. 30 min walk from the campsite.
Disliked Probably need more toilets, showers and washing up area. The ones they do have were very clean.

Liked Peaceful, lots of space.
I liked that it wasn't flooded with lights like many are. We were able to enjoy clear sky, stars and moon.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked The facilities were clean, the host was welcoming and the site was spotless too. The residents were respectful of one another. The price was affordable too
Disliked I ended up sleeping on a slope which was very uncomfortable, so I would go again and camp in a different spot as opposed to at the bottom of the site. Also, I think I'd check for nearby events before booking, as we went with a child who couldn't sleep due the band playing at a pub in the distance, not a fault of the campsite but defo worth researching beforehand

The toilets and showers were basic but very clean. All in all we had a very pleasant time.

Great, would stay again
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely site. Pub 20 minute walk away.
Nice chilled vibe and feels secluded. Trees all around and no road noise. Toilets and pay for showers (£1/3 min) clean and decent. Some pitches are on a slope but plenty of flat options if its not too busy.
Disliked Nothing
