What customers say
Lovely, tidy site with plenty of room and great country views. Top marks for family fun – loads for the kids, animals and woods to explore. Clean facilities and a great buzz on Friday nights with music and grub. A few small niggles with noise and play gear, but folks love it and can't wait to come back.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Amazing lots to do.
Electric grass pitch
Liked We have had a fabulous half term. The kids have had so much to do. Rope swing, play barn swings trampoline and farm animals. They have had massive open spaces to run and meet new friends. Beautiful long walk through the sheep’s field with beautiful views. Facilities clean. Lovely hot showers. Owner happy to put up with 100 questions from my youngest. Best campsite we have been to. Music was played by others but all respectful and off by 10pm
Disliked There are gaps olin the shower room doors but I just hung up a towel

Anonymous Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Clean showers. Relaxed atmosphere. Self check in and out. Really large pitches. Kids felt free enough to go to the park and trampoline alone.
Disliked Toilets got blocked quickly. Could have benefited from a small shop for basics like milk but we survived.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely setting and great that the rubbish was dealt with everyday so the site looked tidy and clean.
- just an observations… trampoline looks like it could do with an upgrade… very wobbly and doesn’t look all that safe when more than one child is on it.
But All in all, the site was wonderful
Recommend to friends Visit again
Great place, great walks and we will definitely be back.
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked We had a great pitch that over looked the fields and across country. People /staff were very friendly. We had such a great time.
Disliked The shower doors were a bit see through and as it was unisex we had to hang our towels over the back of the door!! But that is being a bit picky they were clean and tidy and gave you a real outdoor feeling.

Electric grass pitch
Liked By far my favourite camp site, so much for the kids to do.
Disliked Was disappointed this time as it has always been so clean and well kept in the past but this time there was dog poo everywhere, the toilets were in a poor state more down to disrespectful guests but they were not being cleaned as regular as before. The showers also were filthy all weekend.
