Power optional concrete and grass motorhome site
Liked: Booking through Pitchup was very easy with clear helpful information about the site facilities and directions. Prior to the arrival day I was contacted with a reminder note and welcome information. On arrival to site there is clear instructions on the gate about access and a telephone number for Hillary the site owner who makes herself available for questions or help on other site issues if needed every lovely welcoming lad. Now, to the site itself .... it's one of the most well run, clean, welcoming sites I've visited. It is full of rustic charm with access to a 'Nook' a communal space with is a delightfully and tastefully converted stone outbuilding where campervan owners can access a comfortable lounge space with a small utility area for washing up, use of a fridge and a dining table and even comfortable seating area. The whole site offers a safe, serene and peaceful location which allows for quiet contemplation surrounded by a beautiful natural landscape of undulating hills and moorland. I would highly recommend this place to stay and plan to revisit sometime soon. 5 star

Liked: Place absolutely gorgeous
Disliked: Owner is a nightmare. She keep giving out to people about everything. Like trailer tent with waning she doesn't like. Or even camper with waning. Look at my comments in youtube go to a vlog called Charlie and me vlog and look for The Getaway. I never go back. Avoid Avoid

From the manager: Hi Jackie I'm sorry that I so clearly annoyed you but we got our wires crossed when you arrived. As you know from our original conversation, we are actually a Motorhome and Glamping site that takes a couple of none electric small tents in the summer just as an add on, as people are always asking I tried to help you out and let you use the Motorhome pitch for your tent and it will be the last time I do this because of what's happened here. All the very best Hilary
