What customers say
This spacious, back-to-basics site offers a peaceful, 'near-wild' experience with room to spare and a relaxed vibe. Guests loved the friendly staff, hot showers, and campfires. While the natural setting and quiet were a hit, some found pitches sloped and heard occasional plane noise. Compost toilets got mixed reviews on cleanliness and use.

Nice place. For sure will be back.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Clean. Friendly environment. Very nice place to camp.
Disliked Its mostly a slope so there is a risk your car might get stuck if it rains. So just consider this to where you park your car.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Lovely setting for a laid-back family friendly campsite. Lots of space, considerate people, no music and as close as you can get to a wild camping experience. A charming village is in a walking distance, with two great pubs easily accessible by foot (if this is something you are after).
Disliked It is advisable you arrive early enough if you want to pitch on one of the flatter parts of the campsite. Having said that, we still managed to find a good spot on a Saturday afternoon.

Spot on!!!
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We absolutely loved hook farm! This was our 3rd time camping as a family of 4 and this was our favourite yet. We loved how unattached from everything we felt. We had a nice pitch and had lovely views!!
Staff were great. Charlie was very helpful when we arrived and I was helped with a flat battery on my van. Staff were very friendly and helpful! Shower facilities were perfect! Toilets weren't great. But that's just lack of education on people part. We really enjoyed our stay!!

Liked Great having the open fire on the ground, great hosts, excellent location.
Disliked Very difficult to find level ground (I didn't) so you'll be sleeping on a slight slope.

Liked Fantastic location- so peaceful.
Not too crowded so you could have a whole area to yourself.
You could have a fire.

No music policy! Large site, roomy, simple facilities.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked No music policy! It takes away so much stress knowing that you’re not going to be subjected to other people’s music or radio. Lovely staff. Campfires possible and firewood to buy and this is always a plus.
Disliked Nothing we disliked. We ended up up on a bit of a slope but we didn’t arrive til around 5pm and there are plenty of flatter pitches. We were there just for a night so this was fine. There were compost toilets which is fine - but they are often built really small! And are a bit of a squeeze. I’m a normal sized woman and it was a bit tight. My husband found it really tight!
