What customers say
A tranquil, well-kept rural spot. Praised for its top-notch, clean, and unique restrooms. Friendly owners are a highlight. Downsides: some sloped pitches, narrow spots for awnings, and occasional minor facility hiccups.

Fantastic!
Powered gravel RV campsite
Liked What a wonderful place to stay. The facilities are fantastic, particularly the toilets and showers. The hosts were quick to respond to our queries and requests. Peaceful and yet close enough to walk to the nearest village. We will definitely return.
Disliked Difficult to pitch our awning as the hard standing was raised from the grass.

Powered gravel RV campsite
Liked Lovely little site with possibly the cleanest showers and toilets we have came across.
A couple of pubs/Indian restaurant in the village an easy 25 mins walk for us mid 60 year olds by road (the main road has a pavement so no problem).
EHU worked fine for us. Extra long hosepipe supplied to make filling up easier.
We booked for one night but stayed for 2, happy days.
Owners eager to note of any problems/issuses and feedback so I am pretty sure they are willing to listen and rectify if they think necessary.
Would certainly stay again.
Disliked Leaving 😪
