Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Was very politely welcomed to the site. Toilets/shower basic but clean and plenty of them. Electric hookup available.
Disliked: Grass was a little long which when wet made feet wet when walking to bathroom. Though not a major issue and owner did explain.

Power optional grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Lovely location, very warm welcome from owner which was nice, comes around and checks everything OK, nice toilet and shower block kept clean and tidy, plenty of space for setup, we pitched our 6 man tent with electric hook up.
Disliked: Being picky here, could do with being sign posted at campsite a little better as its quite easy to miss when you come down the bank.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Calm atmosphere, beautiful views. Great for stargazing. We really loved the ability to rock up and choose a pitch. Being able to pitch multiple tents is really useful - other campsites you have to book two pitches and hope they're next door. Check in over phone was good. Toilet block clean and very good - lots of proper toilets and two showers.
Disliked: Only thing we'd want for is a space to wash up dishes with hot water, but for a short trip we just took the washing up home!
