Liked: Where the field was situated was perfect, middle of nowhere which was just needed. Shower/toilet block better than i couldve imagined. Unbelievably clean and topped up with toiletries. Julie attended where we pitched and made sure we had all we needed and advised us that we could contact herself if we did need anything.

Liked: The very friendly welcome and offers to engage the children with the animals on the farm - especially the rainbow sheep! The views were amazing, beautiful spot and lots of things to do in the area, helpfully signposted in the toilet/shower block which was basic but very clean with hot water.
Disliked: The washing up area could benefit from having some sort of cover and potentially hot water but it was dry weather and we just took a boiled kettle with us.
