Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: I have spent two night's with my son. Loved the location, very close to walking trails and other attractions that we wanted to see. The campsite was exactly what we been looking for with Basic facilities and wild camp feeling, and campfire are allowed! Pub is very nice addition to a campsite with welcoming owners.
