What customers say
This small, peaceful, exceptionally clean campsite earns praise for its quiet vibe, lovely setting, and pub nearby. New showers are a hit. Some found optional, keyed-access loos/showers fiddly, and a dishwashing spot's missed. Management's considering adding one.

Power optional grass caravan site
Liked Very peaceful, exceptional clean place to stay had it to myself remote but only a short walk to good pub & local bus
Disliked No washing up facilities plus didn't like the locking of toilet/shower facilities after every use 🤔
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased you enjoyed the peaceful setting and found the site exceptionally clean.
The toilet and shower facilities are optional extras so they're kept locked with a key box, so they're available exclusively for guests who have booked them and to help us maintain the highest standards of cleanliness. We appreciate your suggestion about a washing-up facility, and we are looking into adding this facility in the future.
We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Power optional grass caravan site
Liked Lovely little site, we had it to ourselves
Shower room was spotless, very peaceful too.
Disliked Shower room very hot, could do with air conditioning, we had to leave the door open while using, had there been other campers we couldn’t have done that,it’s a metal structure so obviously it’s going to attract the heat, 2 gates to get into site 1st one is a combination lock which is difficult to see if the previous person has not put it back with numbers facing you, 2nd one isn’t locked, would be better with automatic barriers.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review and for your kind comments about our peaceful site, we're delighted you enjoyed your stay. We're sorry you found the shower room to be very hot, your stay was during an exceptional heatwave which caused unusually high temperatures inside and out. We take on board your comments about the lock, we're grateful for feedback as we continue to improve the site. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
Would definitely book again and recommend to our friends.
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked This small, very quiet campsite was just as advertised, the shower and toilet were extremely clean and tidy. As a camper-van owner they were worth paying the extra for.
Disliked We would say the only minor change would be the key storage for the shower and toilet, not always easy to store the key back in the box but we are being picky. Again as a camper van owner we agree with the suggestion of adding washing-up facilities.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your positive review, we take on board all feedback, and will look into adding a washing up facility in the near future. We're glad you enjoyed your stay!

Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review regarding our peaceful, tree-lined site. We appreciate your feedback regarding the toilet and shower facilities. The charge for these facilities is shown at the time of booking through Pitchup, and helps us maintain a high standard of cleanliness and upkeep for all our guests. We hope you enjoyed your stay overall, and thank you for choosing to stay with us.
Great site with great owners. Perfect
Power optional grass caravan site
Liked Everything.
Its small
Its quiet
Its perfect.
Disliked Nothing really. If I'm being really really really picky, we would have liked sink washing up facilities for dishes. And maybe a pedestrian gate at the main entrance as we went for walks regularly. But this doesn't stop us giving 10/10 - and it doesn't stop this site going to the top of our list of local getaway sites. We look forward to staying here again (and hope they are as busy as they were this time 😉)
