Great site, praised for its beautiful, peaceful setting & clean facilities. Guests loved the spacious spots, friendly owners, & wildlife. Some noted unisex bathrooms, shower tokens, & sloped terrain. Many would return.

Quiet location.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked It was not busy and there was plenty of space to pick from although it was all on a slope … the few flat pitches were taken!
The toilet, shower and washing up areas were clean and tidy but with limited hot water!
Disliked The sloped pitches.

A lovely stay though.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Beautiful and quiet. A very peaceful stay.
Disliked We discovered that the lake is no longer available to guests, which was disappointing. We have elderly dogs, so there wasn't really anywhere too walk them. There wasn't any info warning us that the lake was no longer open on the website. I think the photos of the pond area should be taken off if you can't walk around it anymore. Or at least a statement put up to let us know before we book. We weren't the only campers disappointed that it wasn't open.

From the manager: The photos on the website of a lake is NOT our lake it’s Clanna ponds - a short walk up the lane. (There are no photos of our lake on the website or any access available to our lake which is rented from us by a private fishing syndicate) There are lots of photos on the website of the local area including a shop a pub and various other things we don’t own. The land adjacent to the enclosed campsite is private property and clearly marked as private property. If you had asked I could have told you where to go 😁

A fabulous, quite campsite.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked The owners were welcoming when we arrived. Campsite was clean and it was a good size field so that there was space between pitches. Toilets and showers were clean, the shower was powerful and lasted long enough. Pubs were a short walk away and the food available was yummy.
Disliked Nothing.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked When I arrived the lady was lovely. She said I could pitch where I liked.
Disliked A little bit of a slope, quite far out to walk through forest.

From the manager: There is a lovely walk from the campsite up through Clanna woods, it also has a beautiful lake . Always happy to point out places to visit 😊

Primitive grass campsite
Liked Great site, very peaceful and set in a very convenient location to access wales and the Forest of Dean. Pubs and shops within a 5 minute drive. Site owners were lovely and even was going to lend me shower tokens when I had no cash on me. Park benches were also a nice touch for cooking and eating. Site was quiet and toilet, showers and other amenities were spotless. Highly recommend and will be returning in the near future.

Worth a visit.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Lovely quiet site. Our second visit and we will definitely be back. Several pubs and shops within walking distance which is a bonus.
Teresa is great, very helpful.
There’s a farm down the road from the site that you can visit, llamas, donkeys etc.
Disliked Not overly struck on the unisex bathrooms/toilets but it’s no big deal. Showers and hairdryers are available but payment is on top of your pitch fee. Some people park too close for safety and privacy reasons, it should be 6 metres not 3 but this isn’t stipulated on the page and some folk are just rude and entitled.

From the manager: Thanks for the feedback 😊
