What customers say
Peaceful spot, great views & space. Booking easy, hosts lovely. Good for basic stays but no facilities noted. Some found it pricey for a field, with road noise & long grass.

Liked Peaceful. Lots of space. Stunning views. Hosts were really approachable helpful and friendly.
Disliked Wouldn’t stop me coming again but a toilet. Even if a portaloo and some bins would be a great touch.

Expensive for a field with long grass.

Liked View
Disliked Road noise and it was just a field with disposal and a tap.
Grass was long, and had been cut recently so grass cuttings got everywhere.

Liked Ease of booking via Pitchup, quiet location.
Disliked Didn't feel particularly secure, although I think I did see CCTV. Felt as though I might as well have saved the money and gone off-grid.
Asked for payment again, despite already having made the payment already.

Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked Easy to get to, was a pleasant view and peaceful enough spot to stay for a night.
Disliked Not so much a dislike, rather an observation, it is just a field, so the price is a little high given other sites with facilities charge less/same price. But obviously the choice was mine to book to stay.
Recommend to friends Visit again
Literally a field with no amenities, which suited me just fine!
