Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Tidy camp site, find your own pitch and set up. Able to have BBQ and camp fire. Peaceful evening. Host came to check in on us around 6pm and tell us what was about near by. Next to the canal, we took the kayak. Basic toilet set up, caravan with a couple of toilets and sinks in, and a shower.

Liked: The location was perfect! Quiet and out of the way, next to the canal and marina.

Disliked: Facilities are very basic. Only two toilets and only one of them had a light that worked. Freezing cold showers (no hot water) Invested in some wet wipes! Had to wash pans etc in the toilets sinks.

Liked: The site was as described, clean and the owner seemed very nice with recommendations about the local area.

Disliked: Toilets were a little small when the door is closed. The kids (2 and 5) refused to have the door shut and no way I could get in there with them.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: I wanted to take my children camping, they had never been before so I didn't want to go too far from home. This campsite isn't even half an hour from home, we really enjoyed our night camping and will definitely be coming back again! The toilets were clean, the other campers were lovely and respectful and we loved how simple it was, no hot water, no electric! Perfect!
