What customers say
A lovely, peaceful spot with plenty of room. Basic but clean facilities suit short stays, and the price is right. Great for dogs and near country pubs. A few mention slopes and no showers, but most are happy and keen to come back.

Liked The view is absolutely incredible!
Lovely relaxed little campsite. We had a great time.
As a single mother with a 4 year old it felt very safe.
Disliked The hose in the sink is quite long so it feels like it would be going in people's dirty washing up water. It would be good if it was shorter to be more hygienic.
