Camping at The Hollies

Liked Easy to book, toilets on site, also showers but we didn’t use. Drinking water available, hire of fire pits and fuel cash only. We were 2 families in 2 tents busy day but found a nice spot lovely view of the Roaches

Disliked Pizza can onsite was busy 50 mins wait for pizza but other than that ok

Liked Open space and site and the location - fantastic pub 1 mile away called the lazy trout - food excellent . Great water place and play area down the road .

Disliked Pizza truck totally disorganised in evening and at breakfast - waste of time .

Liked Good location for Rock climbing at the Roaches
Good views of the rocks.
Onsite pizza van (at the weekend at least).
Clean toilets facilities with lots of loo roll. Toilet/shower facilities seemed insufficient for the amount of campers on a busy weekend but surprisingly I never had to wait.
Hot showers (£1 for 5mins)
Washing up sinks (but no hot water)
Large site with multiple camping fields.

From the manager: Thank you for your review and for choosing to stay with us.

We’re really glad to hear you enjoyed the location — being close to The Roaches makes us a great base for climbing and exploring, and we’re happy you appreciated the views, clean toilets, and the pizza van!

While our facilities are simple, we do our best to maintain them to a high standard. We're pleased you didn’t experience any queues despite it being a busy weekend, and we appreciate your feedback about capacity — it's something we're always reviewing as the site grows in popularity.

Thanks again for your visit, and we hope to welcome you (and maybe your group) back in the future.

Best wishes,
The Hollies Team

Liked Amazing location with views of the Roaches from our pitch.
Basic amenities in good, mostly clean working order with very little queuing.
Fairly quiet after 10pm.
Family friendly.
Good to have the pizza van there on Friday and Saturday with refreshments available although not the best pizzas.
Campsite owners were friendly and helpful when making their round to deliver fire pits and wood.
We had a nice, level pitch at the top of the second field. This is probably the furthest point from the toilet facilities and was around a 3 minute walk away.

Disliked Not the fault of the campsite but there are a LOT of wasps so difficult to prepare food and eat in peace especially with kids. It’s definitely worth bringing a trap or making one.
The pizza from Piper’s Pizza van isn’t the best - we had to wait around 45 minutes for our order and there were only a handful of people waiting before us. Pizza base was undercooked and sizing of the multiple pizzas ordered varied between around 7-10 inches. One pizza came without additional topping that was paid for - when we returned it and explained this the staff were amenable and offered to make the correct order. We sat and waited for it and when the owner brought it over he charged us again! This was not explained to us when the staff offered to make a replacement with the toppings ordered.
We had spent around £70 there.
There is some road noise but nothing too bothersome.
The toilets could have done with an extra clean during the afternoon as it was really busy.

Liked The views, the camp fires, the option to have a pizza at the weekend, the local pub. We had a great time!

Disliked Not much to dislike

Liked Location and views of the Roaches, the size of campsite meant you didn’t feel too close to everyone in all directions, with freedom to pitch where you like. Food was available on site Friday night to Sunday morning if wanted. Showers were available on a £1 meter which kept things moving.

Disliked If you want a firepit, it must be hired and logs bought on site.
Mould and smell in showers could be improved.

Liked Great location, with pub in walking distance! Pizza van on site which was great. Staff were really friendly, came around regularly to offer fire pits and wood and even take the ash away too! Tip - to get a pitch on the edge with the view of the Roaches, get there early!

Disliked No hot water for washing up made this a little bit more difficult!

Liked We stayed in the second field, and the view of the roaches was beautiful.
More than enough space to pitch up as groups too.

Disliked Toilets were a bit of a walk away.

From the manager: Hi Emiky
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for sharing the beautiful photo of the Roaches! It really means such a lot 🙂

We’re delighted you enjoyed the spacious pitches and the stunning views — the second field is a favourite for many of our guests because of that.

We appreciate your feedback about the toilets being a bit of a walk away. We’re always looking at ways to improve convenience while maintaining the peaceful, spacious feel of the site.

We can’t wait to welcome you back for another visit!

Best wishes,
The Hollies Team

Liked Gorgeous site, nice big pitches, feels lovely and safe. Great views, shops easily accessible. Toilets were clean and showers were hot!

Disliked It's been said a few times, we were inundated by wasps which put a dampener on things. But we are in a field and that is nature!

The road is quite noisy, but that also, can't be helped.

There were a few parties that were loud and raucous into the early hours. it would be good if they have a warden who patrolled a few times to ensure people were abiding by the rules a bit.

The pizzas we had were not cooked properly so not a fan of the pizza van. They made a pizza wrong as well and it was really small, but it took so long to get in the first place that we ate some slices (were starving) the girl indicated that they would do a replacement with the toppings we had requested and implied this was free, but actually when it came the guy charged us a tenner "as goodwill".

I would definitely use the site, but not the pizzas.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your lovely review and for sharing your photos — we’re so glad you enjoyed your stay with us under the Sturgeon Moon!

It’s great to hear you found the site spacious, safe, and scenic, and that you appreciated the clean toilets and hot showers. We really do put a lot of effort into keeping things comfortable and welcoming, so your feedback means a lot.

We completely understand the frustration with the wasps — they’ve been more active than usual this summer, and while it’s part of being out in nature, we are looking at ways to help manage them better.

We’re sorry to hear you experienced some noise during your stay. We do have a warden on-site Friday and Saturday nights to help ensure quiet hours are respected, but we’ll certainly take your comments on board and review how we can improve this further.

Thanks also for the honest feedback about the pizza van — that’s definitely not the experience we want for our guests, and we’ll be passing this on to the vendor for review.

We really appreciate your kind words and balanced feedback, and we’d love to welcome you back again!!

Warm wishes,
The Hollies Team
