Liked: Location, views, showers and toilets were great and clean.
Pasties from the farm were the best I've ever had.
Owner is very friendly.
If you want somewhere children can play football or games in a field it's a great location.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: The site had a really lovely vibe about it. Very well kept, families so children running around which we liked but it was still quiet and lots of space. The facilities were amazing, very outdoorsy but plenty of toilets and amazing hot showers. The addition of fridges was also very useful! ... And not forgetting the amazing pasties from across the road which made the stay that extra bit special.
