Liked: Fairly civilised version of wild camping. Lovely open field to Camp. The loo was a bonus, and the dogs could roam freely around the tent.

Liked: Views were amazing, lady was very friendly, if you like wild camping this site is for its basic but this is what we wanted. We were lucky enough to be camping with no-one else. Would visit again. Loads of birds singing and buzzards above Yr head

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Peaceful location, plenty of birdsong, and stunning views to Brentor and Dartmoor.
Disliked: Toilet needs a good clear out and clean out. Grass is extremely long and needs a pathway cut through it.

Liked: The view
Disliked: There was no loo roll or hand wash in the toilet. The toilet was not clean. We paid £19 all in all for one night (two of us). £4 was paid for a firepit. The firepit had a big hole in the middle and we were given a few bits of wet wood but we amazingly made it work. The only thing that was good was the view but if you want to run a 'campsite' then the least you need is a basic toilet set up.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Lovely views and rural setting. Lots of space. Friendly owners, we had a lovely time.
Disliked: Overall a lovely stay and spacious for the kids,although a little trek to the toilet, through long grass! It would have been lovely to be able to park by our pitches and an added extra to have some toilet roll and hand wash in the toilet as I didn't see a note to bring these on the write up. Luckily we did! 😊
