Liked: Facilities and location of the camp site were great, very picturesque. Clean standard of washing area, shower and toilets.

Disliked: There is a church nearby and a very punctual bell ringer who rang on the hour, every hour - even during the night!

Liked: A real back to nature feel, well kept and sufficient spaces between pitches allowing plenty of privacy. Showers and toilets were clean and towel in toilet was replaced frequently during our one day stay.

Disliked: Lack of instruction for arrival. We arrived not knowing what to do. Called number on board but no reply. The regular church bells throughout the day and night were loud and intrusive. Aware this is not the sites responsibility but had a negative impact on our stay due to lack of sleep.

From the manager: Thanks for your review Helen. Glad you liked the site in general and found the facilities clean. We did think arrival instructions for campers were sent automatically- our apologies! I will find out if it's possible for this to be added or if not we will send them manually. We do monitor the phone and are regularly up on the campsite to welcome guests, but as everyone arrives at different times we can't be there all the time. And we may miss a phone call here and there but 9/10 we will answer where we can. Regarding the church bells, yes they do ring regularly and appreciate some people find it disturbing, there are free earplugs available at the facilities. I'm not sure if the wind direction affects this as sometimes no one mentions it and other times it is an issue. But as you say unfortunately this is out of our control and not something we can change sadly.

Liked: Everything was "as advertised" and a great site with no hassles and no children.

Disliked: I read some of the reviews from previous people who stayed and noted the comments about the nearby church bells..... If you want to sleep at night then I suggest you don't stay here. Church bells are loud and they chime every 15 minutes !!! I am a good/heavy sleeper with earplugs when camping and I didn't get any sleep. I appreciate this is NOT the fault of the campsite but please be aware of this local noise pollution - you have been warned. Honestly, there is no reasonable need for church bells chiming ALL NIGHT

From the manager: Thanks for your review Peter, we are pleased to hear you think our site was great. We are a bit disappointed that the church bells had such a negative impact on your stay. We offer free earplugs for guests and they are normally sufficient to block out the noise, I think where you pitch can have an impact I.e. the right hand side of the stone circle is closest to the church and they will be louder there, so we recommend the pitches near the facilities/by the orchard if you think they may disturb you as these are lower down and sheltered from the bells. Unfortunately the bells are out of our control, 9 times out of 10 it won't affect guests, I think some people can block them out and see it as background noise and others find it very disturbing, we do think it is a bit unfair to give such a low score solely because of the bells however, as this is something out of our control and we warn guests about them as much as we can. It was mentioned by others staying the same weekend so I think the wind direction must have played a part over your stay, as they can be much louder if the wind is blowing towards the campsite, or nearly silent if the wind is blowing in the opposite direction!

Liked: How quiet and peaceful the campsite was. Choice of pitches to stay in. The fact that you could have a fire. Location.

Disliked: The showers were not quite so clean as I would have liked.

From the manager: Thanks for your great review Aleicia, we love that you found the site quiet and peaceful - that is our main aim! We are very sorry that the showers were not upto scratch over your stay, I can assure you we do clean them regularly and I think it is more dependant on other guests cleanliness - some are very respectful of shared facilities and others not so much! We could have just cleaned them, but if someone has come in and left them in a worse state they would stay like that until the next clean. If you contact us in an instance like this we would come and sort it immediately. We hope to welcome you here again in the future :)
