Oakham, Rutland, England
Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Wonderful site with lots of space, great facilities and an amazing atmosphere. Nice farmland location with a river gently running along the bottom of the site (probably slightly quieter higher up the site, as people seem to flock towards the river bank a bit). Lots of people hire firepits in the evenings, and this creates a great atmosphere - it's like its own little community for a brief stretch of time.
Farm tour for kids on Sunday morning was also a great thing.
Disliked Nothing - there is a trainline fairly nearby but it's not intrusive at all. Quite nice to watch the odd freight train rolling by in the early evening, and did not disrupt us at any point.

Lydney, Gloucestershire, England
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Everything about it was amazing. Great site, with massive pitches for tents (meaning that you don't feel on top of other campers). Clean and new facilities, and a very accommodating host. Beautiful views of the forest, easy to find and get to, and close to everywhere that you might want to go: we were really impressed, and it's a reminder of how getting the basics absolutely spot-on makes for a really good campsite.
Disliked Nothing.
