What customers say
A tidy, tranquil farm campsite with welcoming hosts. Mostly level pitches, and while facilities are simple, they're kept up well, with hot showers, a kettle, and freezer provided. Guests enjoyed the farm animals and quiet. A few felt toilets lacked privacy and wished for a play area. Great for a chill break, good for local sights.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
The site was fantastic, everything is as it says it was.
Unpowered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked The site itself, fantastic, I cant flaw anything, it was exactly as described. Honestly a brilliant remote place to camp. Staff where brilliant. Seeing the farming equipment when you drive in and out and seeing it in use (Bit gutted we didn't get to see the harvester with the boom out but, cant predict that as someone who knows nothing about farming) Honestly brilliant, Toilets where clean a stocked up, Shower worked quickly.
We even managed to see a falcon about 50ft away from us, and a Murder of about 30 crows eating all the earwigs in the wheat fields.
Disliked If I had to picky about the site, if I really had too, The open top toilet and showers, but I'm really struggling to be that picky.
The only problems I had on this trip was a couple of other campers, Which isn't the sites fault. We had three young women screaming, staring at us as they walked past. They seemed rather inexperienced which isn't anyone's fault we all start somewhere, but a fly landing on you is a normal thing camping, don't wake everyone up because of it. The main problem was there high school popular bully characteristics. Caused quite the upset in our tent at one point. Our neighbours also kept complaining about there behaviour and attitude. Again, That's not a fault of the site though. This happens camping. We even repaired someone's tent that collapsed while they where away and there thanks was "I was just hoping someone else would fix it for me"

Unpowered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked Location was gorgeous.
Land was nice and flat for tent pitching.
Loved sitting in the evening watching kestrels, rabbits and other animals at sun set.
Very handy kitchen area.
Warm, powerful showers.
Disliked Toliet/shower rooms could have been cleaner/stocked with soap, but very minor dislike. Being extremely picky. Overall, toilet and shower functioned very well.

Unpowered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked This is definitely a little gem. This has got to be the cleanest farm that I have ever stayed at, and I have stayed at a few. All the facilities are clean and well stocked. The ground is level, the grass is cut and there is no road noise, perfect
Definitely on my return to list

Unpowered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked Lovely field, very peaceful, we had plenty of space, as only 5-6 tents stayed over the weekend. Facilities are basic, but clean. Could hire a fire pit if you didn’t bring one with you. Freezer, hairdryer and kettle available for use. A small selection of snacks was available to purchase.
Disliked Nothing really to report

Liked Was a lovely peaceful campsite. Nice hot showers and clean facilities to use. Logs delivered on a little quad bike. Can hire a fire pit for a small fee. Plenty of walks to do. Great for little kids, my daughter loved that she could see all the animals.

Would definitely recommend, hopefully be back

Unpowered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked Lovely quiet, friendly site with picturesque views. The camping field is well maintained with flat pictures. The facilities are rustic but clean with nice warm showers. We enjoyed the animals including goats and chickens. The hairdryer, freezer and kettle were useful additions. Within easy driving distance of Stamford Bridge and York.
Disliked A mirror within each of the toilets would have been useful.

Unpowered grass tent, caravan or trailer tent site
Liked Loved the animals, it was in a lovely spot surrounded by wildlife and nature! The site wasn’t too busy and other guests were respectful of others😊. The toilets and showers were clean and the kettle was a great touch! It was great that you could hire a fire pit, as I love a campfire when away. The gentleman owner dropped the logs off at our tent. Very helpful. Would highly recommend this site to families.
