A lovely place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Liked The owners are a stones throw away & super friendly, they even offered us air beds (which we massively regret turning down) We thought that our roll mats & duvets would provide enough comfort for our broken & aging bodies 😅 how naive!!! After assembling the tent together we made friends with the adorable farm dogs, got ourselves comfy and watched the sky turn to night. There were no bbqs or fires allowed due to the severe dry weather and wildfires we have been experiencing locally but we were permitted to use our gas stove off the ground fully supervised to make cuppas and food. We had a little go at tarot in the dark, enjoyed watching a pair of bats dance above us for a while and of course we star gazed into the early hours of the morning - we saw some truly astonishing things in the sky! Unexplainable things! At some point around 5am there were clearly wild animals most likely hedgehogs and possibly badgers or foxes moving around in the hedges and sniffing around the tent. Sleep was very poor but the memories created were worth it. Waking to the sunshine, the breeze, the birds singing, sitting on the grass making a cuppa was food for the soul. On site has 2 portaloos (quite smelly ... take air freshener and just be grateful its not a bush) Drinking water tap! This was a blessing. Fire extinguisher and buckets incase of emergency. There are apple trees, not for eating but there is something wholesome about being around trees and hedges growing food. We would 100% return What will we do next time? Air beds! Poss a bigger tent, air freshener, bug spray we didn't get bitten but we attracted a lot of bugs from the light. Signal is poor but I still managed to get some. Happy camping! ✨️🏕🦇☕️

Disliked The toilet smell. But, it is a very hot summer and we were grateful for loos We never really braved venturing out of the campsite to explore as we weren't sure how to find the woodland without using the country road. But then we didn't ask either, it didn't hinder our fun though.
