Liked Idyllic site with camping right in front of the small river. Great views of the sheep and lambs in the field opposite jumping around and playing too. Benches provided which was great to be able to sit out.
Toilets and showers all to a good standard, and a separate room for washing up that also had a microwave and toaster that you can use.
Will definitely be returning.
