Non-electric grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked Lovely little site with a great setup and everything we needed. Toilet block is spot on and there are lots of books and games. We didnt have a fire as it was so windy but we will next time. Nearby pub was lovely and the walk from the site through the trees saves you using the road. Fun additions like swingball and the woodland walk with things to spot are great for kids. We lucked in to a gorgeous sunset too as others have mentioned.
