Disliked Nothing

Recommend to friends Visit again

Liked Ideal setting - very rural and quiet. Pitches were very well maintained. Nice family atmosphere - but I noticed that as a solo camper i was accommodated away from groups and caravans, which I appreciated (thank you). I didn't use them but I noticed at least two freezers, for rotating your cool-box ice packs. Noted for next time. I booked a one night camping pitch but I'll definitely be back for a longer break next time.

Disliked Nothing to report

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review and your kind comments about our friendly staff. We’re delighted you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the calm atmosphere, cleanliness, and beautiful setting of the campsite. We're sorry the new women's shower block was closed during your visit, there are some final adjustments being completed before it opens at the end of July, in time for the school holidays. We look forward to welcoming you back soon and hope you will enjoy the new facilities on your next visit .

Liked Vriendelijke ontvangst aan de receptie.
Grote kampeerplekken en een propere sanitaire blok.
De beheerders kwamen nadat je je geïnstaleerd had even vragen of alles in orde was.
Met andere woorden een goede omkadering.

Liked Stayed with a group of 8 adults in 2 vans and 2 tents. Pitches were spacious and tidy. Facilities were clean. Wardens walking around the site each evening. Enjoyed a lovely stroll to the local pub.

From the manager: Thanks for the lovely review. Great to hear your group enjoyed their stay and found the pitches spacious and the facilities clean. Our wardens work hard to keep things clean and tidy and ensure everyone feels welcome. Glad you enjoyed the stroll to the pub too, it’s a nice little bonus having it nearby! Hope to see you all again soon.

Liked Clean, friendly and quiet site. Managers were helpful and visible.

Disliked Toilets were a bit dated but they were clean.

Liked The off lead dog area. Plenty of room. The pitches were nice and level. It was nice to have met the staff when we arrived and through our our stay.

Disliked This time I just happened to be friends but I normally travel as a solo traveller with my dog. I was a bit disappointed that dogs are were not permitted in the toilets. I do not feel comfortable with leaving my dog outside unattended as many dogs are stolen when left outside. I wasn't able to use the WiFi at all. I had no signal.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your feedback. We're glad you liked the dog exercising area, level pitches, and felt welcomed by our friendly staff.

Whilst we have a policy of not allowing dogs in the toilet blocks for health and safety reasons, assistance dogs are allowed into the blocks. Its a very safe, dog friendly campsite and most of our guests are very happy leaving their dogs outside and using the hooks and drinking water bowls provided, but we understand this might not suit everyone, so we would encourage solo travellers with dogs to come and talk to us so that we can make an exception if required.

We're sorry to hear you had trouble accessing the WiFi during your stay, we'll check the connectivity on the pitch you were staying on. Thanks again for your review. We look forward to welcoming you and your dog back again soon.

Liked Organisation, safety, clean and tidy

Disliked Not campsites fault, footpath overgrown, unable to pass. No other are to walk with dog.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're pleased you appreciated the organisation, safety, and cleanliness of the site. Thank you for letting us know the footpath needed cutting back again, this has now been attended to. Details of other local walks are also available on the campsite noticeboard. Our personal favourite is Stockbridge Down, less than 2 miles drive from the campsite with free National Trust parking, a beautiful chalk downland with far-reaching views, a variety of wildlife and archaeological features.

Liked For starters the security is excellent, in a beautiful location and a quiet site.
Very clean pitches and facilities.
This site does offer WiFi tho I couldn't seem to connect to it.

Disliked Lack of a wet room with seat and rails as the single shower room would ideally make one. Tho as a disabled person that likes to holiday i may be biased.
And personally it would have been nice to recieve a welcome etc rather than an email with instructions.. but that's my own preference. Email was clear on instructions 👌🏻

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased you enjoyed the peaceful location, high level of security, and cleanliness of the site and facilities. We're sorry you had difficulty connecting to the WiFi, there's usually good connectivity from the pitch you were on so we'll take a look at that.

We appreciate your comments regarding accessibility and the shower facilities, your perspective is very important to us and we'll take your suggestions into account as we plan improvements. Our new ladies shower block, which includes wet rooms, is about to open in time for the school holidays. We're sorry it wasn't quite open when you stayed but we hope you'll enjoy it on your next visit.

Our welcome email is designed to give guests the convenience of being able to pitch up and know where everything is without having to queue at reception. Our friendly wardens like to welcome guests personally on their walk rounds each evening.

Thanks again for staying with us, we look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Liked very peaceful location in beautiful spot
nice dog training/exercising area
lots of local knowledge and other helpful info
friendly & helpful owners

Disliked 'wardens' coming to talk to us each evening which felt a bit militant
new facilities only open at weekends so had to use very dated showers
a lack of other facilities for the price we paid

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We’re very glad you enjoyed the peaceful location, the dog exercise area, and the local knowledge and support provided by our team. Creating a welcoming and helpful environment is something we take pride in, so it's great to hear that came across during your stay.

Our walk rounds are intended as a friendly check-in to ensure guests feel welcome and have everything they need. Our wardens are really lovely and not at all militant, we receive lots of positive feedback about how friendly and helpful they are.

The limited access to the new amenities during your stay was due to some final preparations before they open full time for the school holidays. Its personal preference, but many of our guests favour the smaller block that was open during your stay as it has private bathrooms and electric showers. We're currently investing in improvements to ensure everyone visiting us has the best possible experience.
