Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: A very quiet and peaceful wooded field with plenty of space and easy to access portaloos. The owners were very friendly and informative, they told us about some nearby pubs. Portaloos were clean. Location was great, easy to find and close to a town to grab some supplies. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you.

Liked: The owner was fab, super friendly and helpful. Loved that it was basic and felt like wild camping.
Disliked: My car struggled with the track to the field as it was off road, but a bigger car would find it easy.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Lovely area, great woods for walking in, close walking distance to local villages.
Disliked: Not a fan of portallos (personal opinion but others may not mind this) but there were a lot scattered around the site so everyone wasn’t using the same one! Plus they were very clean! Further down the site a group of campers were playing loud music into the early hours which kept most of us awake!
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi Daniel thanks for the review please let us know if campers are been disruptive in any way as we would ask they stop playing the music immediately ,sorry that we were not aware of the music. The policy is that everyone stops playing music by 10 pm at the latest. Kind Regards Castle Gate

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: A gorgeous valley oasis surrounded by trees. Very well kept portaloos Hidden under the canopy. Fresh water taps by each one. Lovely walks along the canal and surrounding areas. Owners are extremely nice and helpful. BBQs allowed. Very sheltered. Ground soft but firm for pegs. The price. Cars allowed by pitch. Would highly recommend.
