Unpowered forest floor tent site (solo)
Liked: The location of this camp site was almost perfect. very basic. just a toilet. woodland area quite for the most part. just far enough of the beaten path. friendly owners very helpful.
Disliked: no so much dislikes and point of reference. road in is a farm track gravel ok for cars not so much for motorbikes but manageable. this site is more geared up for the solo back packer than the family or biker (no parking near your pitch )camper as there is a little rustic walk to the actual camp area. one the plus they do provide wheel barrows. pack light if you want to stop here.

From the manager: Hi Mark, Thanks for your review and kind words about the site. We are trying to keep it deliberately "nearly wild" partly to avoid any issues with farm traffic but also to limit damage to the road which, as you will have noticed, really doesn't like lots of rain! Thanks again and hope you enjoyed your onward journey.
Relaxing and cozy campsite.

From the manager: Thanks for your review, Omid. I'm glad that you all had a relaxing time. Our toilet facilities are very basic as we are trying to have a minimal impact on the land. We appreciate your feedback and are always trying to improve what we offer. The weekend you were here was our busiest yet and it was interesting to see what the site could cope with!
Very quiet and very chilled out which was what we were looking…
