Liked: A fantastic stopover. Five stars are not enough for all the care taken to provide such lovely facilities. We will be back for longer next time. Beautiful barn with fully equipped kitchen, showers and loos all sparkling clean and spacious. Fantastic walks from the pitches and picture book views. Cannot recommend highly enough

Liked: Scenic location on pitches that are well spaced out. Toilets clean & very nice. The barn conversion is a nice facility, especially if weather cold/wet. Purchased farm's sausages and some local cider too - all very tasty.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike!

Liked: Had a lovely 2 night stay with our young children. The campsite is so quiet and has really amazing views . The facilities are great and the owners so friendly and welcoming. They let our children feed the pigs and hold the chickens which they loved. We were there for the pizza night on Saturday and they were so delicious! Will definitely stay again hopefully for longer next time . Thank you

Liked: A beautiful small and quiet site on gentle hills with lovely views. Lots of wildlife. We saw several types of birds of prey while sitting at our tent and did stargazing in the evenings. A generous space between pitches. The children loved the pigs and chickens! The toilets were clean and spider free and there was a really nice barn with kitchen if indoor space had been needed. We bought some local cider and sausages from the camping ‘shop’ too. We drove the car to the pitch for set up and take down, and parked in the site car park in between, which meant the site was a lot safer for kids as the car activity from all campers was minimal. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. We would love to come back for a longer stay.
