Liked Large fields, freedom of pitch location, loads of space between pitches in the camping pitch

Disliked Large groups playing loud music into early hours of the morning, would not recommend for people seeking relaxing stay or with young children with early bed times

From the manager: I am sorry you did not enjoy your 1 night stay due to noisy campers not adhering to the site rules.
We did a drive around the campsite from 9pm until 1130pm, there was one large group playing music and we asked them to turn the music off and to be respectful of other campers. It would appear that they turned the music back on, had we been called out we would have gone back to them, our mobile number is printed on the front of the cards which everyone is given when checking-in.
This is not a regular occurence and many guests enjoy their stay and return.

Liked The ladies toilet blocks and showers were clean
Nice area and not too busy

Disliked Stated on rules given at check in that there was a 10pm noise curfew. No one enforced this and on the first night we had kids screaming and shouting and flashing torches everywhere at 1am and the next night blasting music until gone midnight.
Also fire pit hire was available but they had no logs so had to go to the local coop to get some instead.
Lack of children’s play area - would be great addition to have a play park somewhere on site.
The men’s facilities were not as well kept as the ladies

Liked The Americas field is a great space for all, being right on the river
All the toilet, shower, washing, rubbish and water facilities are also good

Disliked The unmade road access to the Americas field it disastrous for those vehicles other than off roaders, come on Hop Farm a little gravel to fill in some of those enormous pot holes and roller coaster highs and lows is surely affordable

Liked The large area to choose from of where to set up. If you don't like being to close to large groups you can find somewhere quiet.

Disliked Didn't like.how small.the shower cubicles where and the fact you had to keep your hand on the tap to keep it working. very limited places to put your clothing in there so clean stuff had to be placed on the sink area

From the manager: Thank you for choosing to stay here and for leaving a review.
There were 2 shower blocks open, the smaller wooden ones have a changing space in-between the door and the shower curtain with the shower behind. The brick building showers have a hook on the outside and a hook on the inside of the door and without a bag to place clean clothes in there is very little room.
I can understand the frustration of having to keep pressing the showers on however without this they could be left switched on which is a waste of water and costly.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

Liked Everything

From the manager: Thank you for choosing to stay here and that you will visit again.
We look forward to welcoming you next time.

Liked Clean and right on the river.

Disliked They just tell people where to pitch without having designated spots for camping and people just camp right next to you were the guide ropes are nearly touching and camping is all about enjoying your own company unless you’re with friends and family.

I am sorry someone camped so close to you.We have several non-electric fields and guests are given a map when they arrive so they can choose where to pitch up. With such huge fields I do not understand why some people choose to go right next to someone who has already set up camp that they do not know, surely leaving even a few feet in-between would be the sensible thing to do.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

Liked The Hop Farm is a wonderful place for camping with family and friends. There is a huge area with plenty of space, so you can choose the perfect spot to stay. We loved how spacious everything was. There are places to swim, rope swings for children and adults to enjoy, and everyone was very friendly.

The staff do a great job of keeping the site safe and pleasant. Music is allowed until 10 pm, and they make sure the rules are followed. They also monitor speeding to keep everyone safe.

We really enjoyed the location, the atmosphere, and the large open spaces. We had a fantastic stay and would happily visit again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Disliked The only downside was that we stayed at the far end of the campsite, and the toilets were located at the front, which meant a long walk or drive every time we needed to use them. It would be much more convenient if there were toilets and shower facilities available at both the front and back of the site.

It would also be nice to have more trees or shrubs around the fields to provide some shade and protection from the sun, especially on hot days.

From the manager: Thank you for choosing to stay with us and leaving a lovely review.
Many returning guests bring toilet tents to use when it is dark and they do not want to drive which is an excellent idea.
The areas that are shaded with shrubs and trees do get taken very quickly, perhaps the owners will look at adding some more in the future.
We look forward to welcoming you again.
