Liked: This is a fantastic location for a basecamp to explore the surrounding area. It offers a pleasant 10-minute walk through the woods to reach the local pub, a convenient 15-minute drive to the river for a refreshing swim on sunny days, and just 30 minutes to reach the beach. The facilities here are adequate.
Disliked: The noise from the A31 can be audible during certain weather conditions and may be bothersome to individuals who are sensitive to such sounds.

Liked: Easy access to the site, facilities were maintained well. Any issues Sam was on site to help.
Disliked: The only downside was large amount of ticks, but that is outside of the site’s control and it is wild/budget camping.

Liked: The gated entrance which required a code, this made it feel safer as a solo traveller and also the flatness of the field...no trying to work out the best way to pitch your tent! Text from Sam on arrival, nice to have a contact.
Disliked: Washing up water could be warm to help clean away the grease easier.

Liked: Just had a very chilled weekend at this lovely pop-up site with our dog. The site is gated so very safe with key code entry sent to you prior to arrival. Perfect for children and dogs. You can more or less pitch up wherever you fancy. Ample room. Sam the owner was absolutely fantastic, so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We hired a firepit which was perfect. The showers and toilets are well kept and cleaned regularly. There are some lovely walks and highly recommend a walk to The Forest Inn for food and drink. All in all a lovely peaceful retreat and we will definitely return.

Liked: Really loved this simple site, peaceful and not overcrowded. Love that you can pitch wherever you like. The staff running this site were so lovely and helpful and not intrusive in any way. Appreciated the locked main gate with a code for access made it feel very safe. Lovely walking with the forest all around and a lovely walk to the nearest Pub/Inn The Forest Inn situated in the golf course but again lovely friendly staff and super food.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike about this small basic camping field.
