Liked: Peter, who runs the site aka the dog whisperer, was very friendly and can't do enough for you. The campsite was very clean and we loved the lav and shower shacks. Great views and peaceful. Plenty of space for children to play and explore. Dog friendly and wifi was a bonus.

Liked: The spot is beautiful with an almost 360 degree panoramic view. The site was quiet and the site manager Peter was very hospitable and helped us out of a hole when the van didn't start!

Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Easy to get to from the M40. Clean and tidy. Hospitable host (Peter). Although it was a quiet time of year and we didn’t use it, the communal fire pit and bbq area seemed like a nice idea. We appreciated that there was a personal fire pit we could use. We paid for fire wood and although we were given a generous amount it was quite damp so it mostly hissed than created a decent flame and heat.
Disliked: We tented and there was no over hanging trees to pitch under or decent scrubs/hedges for wind blocking as we prefer. Information/directions for where we are allowed to pitch on arrival would be helpful if the host is off site. We wouldn’t say it had character- except for Peter. He is an asset.
