Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Nice location and flat field even though it was not the original field due to the weather.
Walks and biking nearby.
Disliked: Avoid visiting during Bank Holidays, as Bunty typically has family gatherings, which, while enjoyable for them, can make the place more crowded than necessary. The facilities are basic and may feel a bit too laid-back.

Liked: Just come back from our stay here and have to say it was so lovely! The owners were so friendly, Bunty very good with the children and they even got us our milk save us going out with the children. There was a kettle, microwave, hairdryer, fridge, and freezer there which was great. Also it's so nice that the shower was so clean too. There was a stream that the children played in for hours and as for peacefulness goes you can't beat it, the walks around the village were lovely too, so quaint. Just wonderful, can't recommend enough!!
Disliked: Nothing it was a perfect stay
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you very much ,, it was a pleasure to have such lovely well behaved children.
Makes it all worthwhile thanks
