Liked: Beautiful site with a lovely shallow clean stream running through it. Hammocks and swings over the stream which was such a lovely touch. Amazing views over the Somerset countryside. Communal fire put and logs provided. Lots of picnic benches.
Disliked: The toilet/shower block was a shed, it had lots of spiders in.
