What customers say
Great for a peaceful, wild camping escape. Owners are friendly, facilities basic but clean loos. Expect farm mess, but good value for a relaxing break.

Liked Open space
Disliked There was so much cow poo covering the camping field, my young children couldn't run around without getting covered in it, Not great when there isn't a water supply to wash them down. Also not great if your dog loves a poo roll!
The large group of men at the entrance to the field must be regular campers, they have built camping structures on site. were parting with extremely loud music till 5am keeping us all awake. They were aware we had young children in our group.

This is wild camping for real,with plenty of fresh air. No wifi.

Liked I liked the helpful and friendliness shown by the owner Carol. I was directed to pitch my tent anywhere in one of the fields provided.This farm provided very basic wild camping with big wide open fields. I also liked that it was very peaceful and quite. The only facilities on the farm are Porta toilets and a few minutes drive away water point. The field I stayed on was mainly sloped but there was also many flat areas on it that I found.
Disliked I would have preferred a pot washing facility but it wasn't a problem to was pots at my tent.

Liked Absolubtly loved this place... Genuine peace and quiet perfect for our little one night R&R. Lovely views across the countryside and plenty or space to set up camp... Portaloo spotless... Deffinatly be back :)
Disliked Not really a dislike as we like the hands off approach...but didnt see or hear from owners, small print said to just park anywhere but just felt a little bit naughty... maybe a email before with directions and reassurance to just rock up would put visitors at ease... Thats just being picky place is lovely!
