Unpowered concrete slab caravan site
Liked: Spacious site, very very peaceful, lovely area. Lots of space for kids to play and explore. Animals on site (chickens, ducks, sheep, goats) for kids to see.
Disliked: Access road very rough and unsuitable for large vehicles or caravans. On leaving , had trouble getting up hill on loose surface, with wheel spinning. If I had a larger caravan it would be almost impossible without 4 wheel drive.
Only one portaloo for site. Not really suitable for size of place.
“Hard standing” area is rough, uneven and dirty.
Value for money? No electricity, no showers, no hot water, and a portaloo?

Bell tent
Liked: Everything about the site. Views are amazing, owners friendly, my 4yo and 15yo loved animals on farm. The yurt style tent we rented was amazing, comfortable bed and cosy decor. Fire pit and large bbq also highlights of our stay.
Watching the bats at night in the woodland as we roasted marshmallows on the fire.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: Lovely area, down a long track surrounded by lush green fields and farmland. The location was excellent. Pitches we're level and grass was short. One toilet cubicle for all of the campers in the field. A lovely wildflower area and an area containing sheep, geese, goats and horses for children to view. Great area for stargazing with only a slight bit of light pollution from Leicester in the NW and Harborough in the S. I will definitely be using this site again.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: The view was exceptional, you felt like you were in the middle of no where. All was quiet and calm and there was a lot of space. Looking round the farm was lovely.
Disliked: We were told to ring when we arrived. Straight to voicemail 8 times. Tried texting. No reply. So customer care was zero. Found ourselves a spot and enjoyed our stay.
The view was slightly marred by a corner of the field being farm rubbish. Unsafe for the kids and not quite as good as the other 300 degrees of view.
A sink to wash up or wash hands would be a lovely addition as would a second portaloo as there was sometimes a queue with 20+ people in the campsite.
