Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: Nothing was too much trouble. It was extremely hot when I arrived with my dog & there was very little shade in the field. I was offered a pitch in the next field which had shade which was just what was needed, but may not be available for long as they are doing up a container for further accommodation in this section. Very friendly hosts and the bar was a great addition. Would definitely recommend. Oh and the toilets were spotlessly clean.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Our second visit was as good as the first, we've already made arrangements to return next year Aug bank holiday. It's clean, peaceful with two really nice people running it. If you forget to take anything you can probably hire some for the cost of washing (towels, pillows etc). The site has a nice friendly bar where you can chat with the hosts and other campers and get a great breakfast in the morning. The facilities are very well kept as Di or Andy are usually around cleaning or welcoming guests. I suggest you just go there see for yourselves.

Liked: Such a lovely site, with welcoming owners. Nothing was too much for Di or Andy. Dog was welcomed too (she made more friends than us!!) Washroom facilities are soo clean.(no wonder they have won an award for it !) Cute little evening bar/breakfast shack. (nice bacon &sausage sarnie!) Highlight for me was an evening around the fire pit, provided with everything needed to get it going (at a small cost.)Andy even delivered to the tent. Being an adult only site, gave it a more relaxed feel. (I guess no stressed parents!) They have plans for more bell tents, the one they have set up is lovely (Andy let us take a peek) would make a lovely place for a special occasion. Field on a teeny slope but not enough to feel when sleeping! We had a lovely weekend, just wish we could have booked some sunshine!! Would definately come back with friends for a get together.
Disliked: The only teeny thing was the noise from a near by road. (motorbikes who feel the need the rev past)but owners have planted hedge to hopefully act as a sound muffler before long..

Liked: Diane and Andy greeted us when we arrived and we were shown some very very nice facilities. Our pitch was level and the grass is kept to a high standard, It's quiet and relaxing until you get inside the bar and the double act keeps you in stitches as you take a beer or 3. We made some friends, had some low priced drinks, had some very nice food and just had a great weekend, so nice we booked for the following 2 nights as well! Thanks guys, see you soon. A & L
