Camping cabin
Liked This is a friendly, clean, safe and well-organised site. The pod was really comfortable, warm and even had tea and coffee. The shower / toilet block is in excellent condition and the separate washing up room with hot water even had a chest freezer. We were spoiled with brilliant weather so it gave us wonderful views and nearby walks.

Glamper camping pod
Liked Very clean and looked after facilities. The pod itself was well looked after and spotlessly clean. Freindly welcome from the lady on arrival. Only stayed one night, but enjoyed our stay. We will definitely return again.
Disliked Not a dislike or complaint, but to top this site off, a little childrens play area would be nice for younger children. But would this make the site less peaceful?

Welcoming site with great facilities
Camping cabin
Liked The family that run the site are lovely and welcoming. Ernest’s retreat has a relaxed feel and it’s a great place. Shower and toilet block was clean. Loved the ability to get a pizza on site too. Hopefully we’ll be back again one day!

Glamper camping pod
Liked Nice location and view out from the pod. Freezer available in communal area and ice-cream on honesty box basis.
Disliked Steps a bit steep and creaky going into the pod. Showers VERY hot - almost scalding, would be nice to be able to regulate the temperature.
