Woodpecker shepherd's hut
Liked: Absolutely beautiful site. Loved it from the moment I drove down an avenue of trees to walking along the path through the Orchard seeing the Shepard huts, woodland camping spaces and big grass camping field surrounded by trees blackberries and the sound of birdsong. The large pond and Sauna was amazing hors of fun for all the family. Went for my daughters 40th Birthday with her husband and two young children. Fantastic ! Very friendly and helpful owner Rob, brilliant.
Disliked: Nettles! 😅 Would like a hand rail for steps up to Shepards hut.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked: We had a fabulous week at Whitehouse Farm. The atmosphere that has been created on the site was very friendly and with no cars allowed on site we felt safe allowing our children to walk around the fitness trail and to the two play areas with their new found friends. Rob is a great host who takes the time to greet all the guests and provide knowledge on the local area such as places to go and places to eat. Whilst the campsite was full on the weekends it never felt overly busy and the facilities were clean and well stocked with the essentials. Swimming (and using the row boat) in the wildlife pond were an unexpected bonus and our children are keen to return next summer.
