What customers say
Beautiful riverside spot, loved by campers for stunning scenery & super-friendly owners. Alpaca encounters, river swims & on-site pub get great reviews. Toilets clean. Basic facilities & some distance noted, but overall, a fantastic stay many want to repeat.

Otter cabin (four person)
Liked We have been visiting the Crown every year for the last 6 years usually tent based by the river and have never had an issue what so ever! Rich and Caroline and their wonderful family have always been so kind and welcoming to us. Due to going later in the year and heavily pregnant we chose to stay in the otter cabin this year which is brilliantly placed by the pub side. We enjoyed spending the Mason family’s last weekend at the crown with them. The Cabin was cozy, clean and comfortable. We loved the electric heater during the cooler season along with the cabin having extra seating space with the L shaped couch which wonderfully pulls out into a bed for 2 if needed. The cabin had lots of space and with a working fridge and kettle which was really useful when the weather turned wet and cold in the evening. The cabin had a convenient space for cooking by the river and was close enough to the toilets. We can’t wait to visit again next year with our little boy! The cabin is perfect for introducing the little ones to camping! 100% recommend!

Heron's Nest on-site caravan
Liked Loved this little short stay, was bouncing down with rain but that didn’t ruin our stay.
We had a lovely meal and bottle of wine at the Crown then back to the caravan to fall asleep listening to the river flowing. Staff are so friendly and helpful, can’t wait to return when the campsite is back open.

Poppy's Patch bell tent (six person)
Liked How peaceful it was
The animals were so cute
The staff were really friendly and helpful
The tent was so spacious and clean
There were sockets to charge phones up on benches which were under cover.
Fantastic value for money
Disliked One of the beds was extremely creaky and uncomfortable, the springs were sticking out and it made for a bad night's sleep.
There were no fairy lights or lanterns as advertised so we were in the dark barring one small torch we brought.
No music in the pub and felt like everyone could hear each other's conversations.
WiFi was none existent which was worrying as I couldn't keep in contact with my husband and young children.
