What customers say

Lovely views and a peaceful vibe for wildish camping. Lots of space, private pitches. Staff are sound. But mind the loos – a few folk found them grimy. No hot water for washing, no bins, and getting your motor in/out can be a bit tight.

Tim H.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Site itself was nice, fairly spacious. Directions were clear, no issues getting there

Disliked Let down by the local area, I didn't stay the night as there were 3 women, completely blind drunk and refusing to control a huge dog which was causing problems among the other tents, bathrooms and fighting with other dogs, let down by this but not the sites fault, simply the local area.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Great views

Disliked Cleanliness of the toilets and shower left a lot to be desired. Sloping pitch as was told to use top field. Others had taken flatter areas.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Cheap for single person

Disliked Noisy people playing round music and drinking until past 10.30pm had to message owner who did ask others to lower the music at this point. I should of pitched lower down in the trees but no one on site to ask and when I phoned the contact number no one answered just received a text to say pitch in top field where the party was.
No hot water to wash pots of hands in toilet. Shower water was warm but toilet block is old.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked The campsite, views and nature was beautiful. It was well priced, private and spacious. As it was accessible and there were large, near-by shops, we were able to simply travel by tram as a group. There was also a large range of onsite activities and facilities like showers and a troughs to wash up in with taps. There is good signal throughout the site and a large wood pile.

Disliked The toilet facilities (including the showers), while functional didn’t smell or look great and were limited in number.
