Meadow non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely to have animals thst you can feed. Owners and staff are lovely.
Disliked Tightt searing setup in pub for meal. Placed us next to a birthday party and a enormous dog in a very small area.
No water in meadows field , or basic portaloo facilities, you have to go over the river for the toilet! I knew the situation from description, but in reality it was pain with a child. If I owned the place just invest in a portaloo
We absolutely loved our stay – the community feel from the owners…
Alpaca Area - Willow bell tent (two person)
Liked We absolutely loved our stay – the community feel from the owners was really warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere around the site was just perfect. Staying with the alpacas in the bell tent was so much fun and made the experience really special.
There was loads to do right on site, so we were able to fully enjoy our time without needing to go far. The food was great too – really tasty and just what we needed after a day of exploring and relaxing.
The listing clearly set expectations – we knew there were no showers and that we’d need to walk to the car, but honestly, the short walk across the river to collect our things just added to the charm.
Disliked Absolutely nothing to complain about! We’re really excited to book again and have recommended to family and friends.
Clean facilities, never used a compost toilet before, which was fun.
Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (two person, small)
Liked The pub was cosy and the staff welcoming. The camp site had great facilities and location. It was very peaceful and pleasant with the sound of the river flowing.
Disliked The steps down to the camp site were inconvenient although there is a ford that can be crossed in car or by foot if wearing waterproof footwear.
We had the most amazing time here! The highlight for me was…
Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch (two person, small)
Liked We had the most amazing time here! The highlight for me was the hospitality of the place, with the kindest hosts who consistently went out of their way to help us and make us feel welcomed - guiding us around the local area when we needed help, providing lovely chats at the pub and during the alpaca walks. The site itself was beautiful, with a lovely river to swim in, a heaven of green trees and meadow to wake up in, and many gorgeous accessible walks nearby. The alpacas were definitely a highlight and our walk with them was both informative and adorable. The pub food was also delicious, and there was a nice little pool table too. Would highly highly recommend to anyone and everyone :)
A lovely place to stay.

Liked Loved the location and the welcome. Loved the pub, the alpacas and swimming in the river.
Disliked Nothing, not even the compost loo which works a treat
Fantastic site with great staff and facilities
Meadow non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Everything! the site was beautiful. The girls loved the animals.The owner Richard was really nice and got the girls involved with feed the animals also got some fresh eggs which were stunning. The walk to the main site over the river just added to the adventure they also took a dip where it was a bit deeper. Already planning our next visit.
Make sure you make a visit, you will love it
Alpaca Area - Willow bell tent (two person)
Liked Omg what a gem of a place,Rich and Caroline were the bestest hosts ever, we stayed in the willow tent and it was soooh comfy and clean with the added bonus of the alpacas aka the boys 😍 (charlie was my fave,sorry to the other 3 lol). The food was amazing,the river was lovely to wake up to,the whole area was such a serene peace of mind to stay at. Everything you could wish for a great camping experience is here,even though there are no showers when you camp you are getting to experience mother nature at her fullest,that we should do now and then.
Overall my hubby and I and an amazing time and will 100% be coming back again, we loved this place ❤️ ♥️ 💕

Disliked Nothing
Friendly staff, lovely quiet site, clean composting toilets.
Meadow non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We absolutely loved our stay here. Such a friendly welcome which was lovely after a long journey.
We booked the meadow pitch which meant wading across the ford to reach the composting loo which we had great fun doing ( could have walked around by the bridge but where's the fun in that?). It's a lovely, peaceful location and it was heaven to sit there by a campfire listening to all the sounds of the night.
Disliked Nothing
Excellent site, hosts, locals and scenery 🥰
Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch (family, maximum 6 metres)
Liked Everything about the Crown Inn was fantastic. Amazing scenery, wonderful hosts. We had a great pitch right next to the river, there is something amazing about waking up with just bird song and a bubbling river. Rich was a great host and so friendly and helpful. Will definitely be stopping there again and have already recommended to a couple weet at the next site we stayed at. Cute alpaca's. Cannot fault anything. Thank you for a wonderful stay
