Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked: Pretty lake side site with bats, water birds and long tail tits. Warm clean individual cubicles with showers and toilets together- more like own bathroom than campsite. Lovely child’s play ground. Lots of space and level pitches .
Disliked: Traffic noise from A52
Recommend to friends Visit again
Lovely. Only thing that is missing is a chemical toilet point.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked: Wonderful clean field and pitches. Tidy and spacious site. Excellent facilities - best showers ever experienced on a camp site! Small but tidy cleaning/washing up facilities. Fridge, freezer and microwave for all to share and access. Intimate and exclusive feel as limited pitches. Will definitely book again - not only for next years Outlaw event (12 miles away & easily accessible) but for mini breaks this year. A little gem hidden away.
Disliked: Traffic occasionally noisy but didn’t really impact the stay.

From the manager: Hi, thanks for the review, was only thinking about you yesterday and wondered how you got on in the event? Xxx
