What customers say
Well-kept, clean, friendly site with spacious spots and great amenities. Peaceful atmosphere, good for walks/attractions, and helpful staff. Play area and access road need work, but management is addressing it.

Anonymous Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked The facilities were outstanding and very clean. The whole site felt very tidy and comfortable. Every staff member we encountered was lovely and welcoming make you feel very relaxed while being there.
Disliked It would have been great if the shop was open for longer on the site, especially during the hot weather to get some ice creams.

Lovely site, very clean and large pitches
Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Beautiful site, large well maintained pitch. Very clean facilities. Friendly staff. The bonus of freshly baked pizza and chips was great after travelling and setting up! The same goes for the yummy breakfast rolls on departure. Lovely area and stunning scenery around. Will definitely visit again
Disliked Nothing to moan about. The lane through to the site is narrow and some of the roads around are single track so make sure you take a caravan friendly route

Power optional grass campsite
Liked Very well kept site, everywhere was clean and tidy. Little tip though, take a toilet roll to the loo just in case the paper dispenser is tangled up😜
Plenty of walks and everyone stuck to the 10pm to 8am quite time. Really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely site!
Power optional grass campsite
Liked Decent sized pitches, clean toilets, friendly staff, great coffee served at reception.
Disliked Playground could be expanded a bit, not much my kids could play on without needed help as they couldn’t reach (6 years). Also would have appreciated the ice cream van a little earlier, both nights an ice cream van parked up right by our pitch at 8.30pm, but the kids loved it!

Cool place for exploring, and hiking < 1.5h to Puzzlewood
Power optional grass campsite
Liked Clean well maintained site.
Good access to local walks...
Very quiet and peaceful...
Disliked ....Until the septic tank pump out... prep for may bank holiday weekend. Just bad timing...
Slight incline on pitch No7 too much for our levelling ramps if van faced down the slope, but when at 90deg, provided enough to get us level. If pitches either side of us were occupied we may not have been able to manoeuvre as pitches about 10m wide
