What customers say
Great friendly, quiet, clean site with spacious pitches & modern showers. Handy for motorways, farm shop & pubs. Good for festivals, with owner shuttle. Some find it a bit pricey for basic facilities, with occasional comments on limited facilities or muddy ground.

Excellent site.
Unpowered grass caravan site
Liked Been coming for 2 years now and for us there is nothing to dislike. Choose your own area to pitch. The owners Paul and Carla are super friendly. Extremely helpful with any issues you may have.
We stay in a touring caravan but the site facilities are excellent. Toilets are constantly maintained to a high standard.
As is the rest of the site. Easy access from the motorway. Literally 2 mins.
If it’s peace and quiet your after then this is the place to be.

Liked clean facilities
Not busy so lots of space
Disliked This was a last minute trip and school holidays so didn’t have lot choice , it is very expensive at £30 pn for non electric and you have to pay extra if you wish to have a shower maybe a playground installed would be good for kids of charging so much . This has put me of staying again

From the manager: Hi Gemma,
Thank you so much for staying with us and taking the time to leave a review.
I am glad you enjoyed the large pitch size and cleanliness of the site. Sorry to hear you didn't get to book your stay until the last minute and so didn't have much choice on where to stay.
You seem to have marked us down for the price and charging for showers primarily. This seems a little unfair as the price and cost of showers are clearly advertised before you decide to book...
We do plan to install a play area for children in the future but to mark us down for not having something we don't advertise doesn't me sense.
Sorry to see you wont be staying again or recommending us.
All the best,
Paul

Decent site, slightly pricey
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked The location was good, secluded, flat ground, plenty of space to pitch, close by to a lovely farm shop, all amenities available
Disliked Price point - plus then charging extra for showers

From the manager: Hi Anonymous,
Thank you for staying and taking the time to review our site.
Really glad to hear that the flat seclusion and pitch space was appreciated.
Sorry that you feel the price is excessive and that charging for showers seems too much.
We did take a long time deciding whether or not to charge for showers. When considering this we took into account the considerable upfront investment in the shower block. In addition the cost of pumping the water to and from the shower block, heating and lighting along with the cost of disposing of the waste water. We decided that it was better to offer the facility with a small cost rather than not bothering with showers at all.
We hope that you will stay again in the future as we plan to keep improving and developing the site as much as possible to ensure value for money and guest satisfaction.
Thank again,
Paul

A repeat visit for a reason, well maintained, a top basic site
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Modern toilet and shower facilities
Very well kept and facilities cleaned to a good standard routinely
Great location; farm-shop over the road, pubs local (although some are closed down), walks and running routes are decent
The field is never quite very populated … I can’t stand cramped sites!
Disliked Nothing at the price, but an added benefit would be a small play area for kids - just wooden build, even obstacle course kind; there’s enough real estate for it

From the manager: Hi Carl,
Thank you for your booking and your suggestions. We hope to install a climbing frame or similar later in the season to further enhance the site. Also we have upgraded the WIFI since your visit so hopefully you will notice the improvement if you come again.
