Electric optional grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Great views of countryside. Cornish oven next to Morrisons 400m away from campsite. Roger and Amy very friendly and helpful.
Disliked: The rain. But not much you can do about that one. Could have done with one or two toilets with lower sinks for my 5 year olds to brush their teeth. But to be honest we did not check all toilets, and they brushed in the shower most nights. Only the morning

Liked: Very friendly and accommodating despite the awful weather Very clean facilities with double hot showers Good size pitches Wonderful views
Disliked: If you want peace and quiet I wouldn’t recommend pitches 7 or 8 in the ‘meadow’ as next to a loud workshop.

From the manager: Thank you so much Siobhan for your very kind review. This has for sure been our most challenging period to date with exceptional weather for months and a storm passing through over Easter. We are so grateful to all of those we were able to accommodate and all the co-operative works that went on to make the most of an undesirable start to the season and to customers Easter breaks. Thank you for your custom and understanding and we wish you all the best for the rest of the year! Amy, Roger and family
