Unpowered grass and gravel tent site
Liked: Ground was flat and even though it was raining the ground stayed firm for the pegs to stay in. Lovely scenery with the lake, owners friendly and kind enough to get the tractor to help us get our car out of the mud as we were stuck. They also took the time to advise us of local shops and takeaways they recommend.
Disliked: Online states there is a shower available, toilet block and washing up area. This was not what we expected at all. The shower and washing up area were in an old style static caravan. The shower did not work, and there was no water for the sink to work at the washing up area for us to do the dishes. It did have electric so we boiled the kettle to wash our dishes. (The owners did eventually notify us of the shower and water not working and offered for us to use the shower and sink in the house, we declined as felt rude to use their house when the facilities should have been working as it was the first weekend they were open). There were 3 portaloo like toilets side by side, they hardly flushed and the toilet seats were very high up ( I am 5ft6 and I could not touch the floor when sat). There were sinks in with each toilet which had peddles on the floor to press for water to wash hands. 2 out of the 3 sinks did not work and one just shot black gunk out. The soap dispenser in the middle toilet was also broken. They could have also added hooks on the doors to hang coats/umbrellas. The toilets were also located outside the owners house (like their drive way). We went to the toilet at 8:45pm and felt we should not have gone as everything was pitch black, lucky we had torches to find our way. We were meant to stay 3 nights but due to poor facilities, we left a day early.

Liked: Idyllic. Lovely location, peaceful and relaxing. Hosts were wonderful, met us on arrival and introduced us to the site. Available if needed and happy to help but kept their distance to allow us to enjoy. Especially appreciated when new campers arrived who pitched up rather close and owners asked them politely to allow space without us having to ask. Meant we could relax in our own space.

Liked: Convenient location, nice lake with option to use boat
Disliked: The toilet facilities are not up to standard. There is one combined toilet and shower for the whole site, located in a fixed caravan. The shower does not drain well, so ended up with water pooling around your feet. It did not look like the faciliites were cleaned frequently either.

Liked: There wasn't much to dislike! Basic but beautiful location, really lovely & friendly owners, who couldn't do enough for you. Facilities really clean. 4G network signal. Fishing rights along the bank (although we didn't catch anything!) Pitch where you want. Loved the horses walking past to their stables both morning & evening. Beautiful sunsets. Absolutely coming back to stay.
Disliked: Really nothing to dislike.... although it would have been nice to have a lock on the bathroom door.

Liked: Great site with beautiful lake that made us extend our stay from 5 days to 3 weeks. The site had all of the facilities that we needed and a gorgeous host family who would go out of the way to help us have an enjoyable time. Our dogs were welcomed onto the site and enjoyed the freedom and swimming in the lake. Wouldn’t hesitate to return and would recommend it anyone. Thanks to Sheila and family for making it a great holiday.
