What customers say
A friendly, well-kept site with good facilities and a peaceful vibe. Ideal for stopovers, with helpful staff and dog areas. Some noted dated facilities and patchy Wi-Fi. Recent reviews mentioned permanent residents and bin issues, but management is addressing them.

Lower Field unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Small, friendly site in a rural location. Everyone that we came into contact with was friendly and helpful.
Washing up area and laundry room really great to have on site.
Pitches were spacious and really well kept.
Lovely short dog walk on site.
Disliked Showers weren't great, they were warm but the water pressure was very low.
Interior of the shower / toilet block was a little tired, with paint peeling and dated decor.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the peaceful rural location, spacious pitches, dog walk, and found our team friendly and helpful. It’s also great to hear the laundry room and washing-up area were useful during your stay.
Thank you as well for your feedback on the shower block. We’ll look into the water pressure issue, and we’re currently in the process of redecorating the interior of the toilet block.
We hope to welcome you back again soon.
Clean site, good location, but pitch was awful.
Lower Field unpowered grass tent or motorhome site
Liked Toilet facilities were clean and fresh, location was good with proximity to good walks. Dog exercise field was good. Socket to charge phones.
Disliked Half the pitch was mud and there was no room elsewhere for the tent which I had paid extra for. Dirt got in the van when it was perfectly dry elsewhere. Reception was offhand though eventually helpful. No wifi info provided. Only basic facilities.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback – we’re really pleased you enjoyed the location, walks, and our facilities, especially the dog exercise field.
We’re sorry to hear that part of your pitch was muddy. This was due to an awning having just been removed from the pitch prior to your arrival, which can leave the ground soft, particularly with recent weather conditions. Had this been raised during your stay, we would have happily looked at alternative options with you where possible.
We’d also like to clarify that there are plenty of grass areas around each pitch suitable for pup tents, so there should have been space available nearby. If you’d spoken to us at the time, we would have gladly helped you find the best setup.
WiFi is not currently available on site, and this is clearly stated in our pitch information so guests know what to expect before arrival.
We’re also sorry if you felt reception was offhand, as this certainly wasn’t our intention. We always aim to be friendly, approachable, and helpful, and we’re glad we were able to assist you.
We do appreciate your feedback and will continue working to improve wherever we can.

Liked Well laid out, friendly welcome, all services available, quiet and secure
Disliked I couldn't get 4G, but the receptionist and the guardian both 'lent' me their wifi so I could connect which was very kind
When I was there the shower doors had swollen with all the rain so I couldn't use them, but otherwise all good
