What customers say
A peaceful farm escape with stunning views. Praised for clean facilities (flushing loos, hot showers, fridge, seating), friendly hosts, campfires, and sheep spotting. Some noted sloped/close pitches and value for money, but overall a quiet, lovely camping trip.

Powered grass and gravel site
Liked Peaceful site with lovely views from where we parked! Spent the evenings in front of a fire and looking at the stars. The owners dogs were very friendly and came over to us a lot to say hello, very well behaved dogs. Toilets and showers were fine. Quite a walk to get to them from where we were but the toilets are in the perfect place as they’re next to the tent field. We were in the van part which was further away but most vans have their own facilities anyways… we don’t but it wasn’t an issue. Owner would always say hello when he seen us and when we arrived he let us choose where we wanted to pitch. Overall a great stay!

Powered grass and gravel site
Liked The views were lovely, perfect postion. Toilets and shower were very clean. Owners were very friendly and helpful.
Disliked The pitches were far too close and crammed in. Thankfully the people staying when we did were quiet. Otherwise it could have been alot worse. Expensive for what it was.

Tucked away sheltered site with excellent facilities
Unpowered grass tent site (solo, adults only)
Liked This is a lovely sheltered camping field, quiet and peaceful in an “out of the way” location.
Excellent and very clean facilities with flushing toilets and hot showers. Even a little cabin with a kettle and mugs and somewhere to sit out of the elements. Also picnic tables. Bliss for a weary bike packer with a tiny tent.
Owner pleasant and helpful.
Disliked Nothing although the field is quite sloping.
