This popular, family-friendly farm campsite offers clean, modern facilities and a shop. Kids love the animals and stream. Campfires welcome! Peaceful, with helpful staff. Some sloped pitches and a bumpy access road noted. Close to Rutland Water.

Lovely little campsite

Liked Beautiful setting next to the river, farm shop & nice shower block. Loved that kids can play on rope swings & paddle in the river & that it was deep enough to swim in.

Great site, great facilities, highly recommended.
Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Wonderful site with lots of space, great facilities and an amazing atmosphere. Nice farmland location with a river gently running along the bottom of the site (probably slightly quieter higher up the site, as people seem to flock towards the river bank a bit). Lots of people hire firepits in the evenings, and this creates a great atmosphere - it's like its own little community for a brief stretch of time.
Farm tour for kids on Sunday morning was also a great thing.
Disliked Nothing - there is a trainline fairly nearby but it's not intrusive at all. Quite nice to watch the odd freight train rolling by in the early evening, and did not disrupt us at any point.
