Powered grass campsite
Liked Beautiful setting. Large pitch. Railway bar absolutely fab & a must to do if there on a Friday night. We discovered th Cedar Pantry & farm shop which was superb for breakfast & very reasonable for probably the best full English I’ve eaten in a very long time. Thus was our 2nd visit to Brockford Sidings & this time we recommended to friends who joined us & all 6 of us cannot wait to go again.
