What customers say
Staff praised, great pub grub & spacious pitches. Peaceful country spot with handy pub. Loo/shower issues outside pub hours, some upkeep/overflow parking gripes. Still, many had a great time & would recommend.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Lovely convenient location, easy to find and get our rented motorhome onto our pitch. Hassle-free arrival and hook up and not disturbed by our near neighbours at any point.
Although we didn’t eat at the White Lion we did enjoy a welcome to Wheatacre drink in the bar and were able to peruse the very lovely looking menu! Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, despite it being a very busy evening.
Overall, great facilities - pity there was no shower block but we knew this in advance so not a problem - and a great location. Will definitely recommend staying here to friends ❤️
Disliked Other than the teeming rain, not a lot. Our only suggestion is that offering breakfast to those camping would go down really well. We followed the recommendation to eat at the nearby farm shop and cafe (which was awesome) but would have eaten at the pub if this had been an option.

A good place to stopover.

Liked Pub was good and they managed to fit us in for a late Sunday lunch. Pitches were wide and flat. We were the only ones staying, it was very quiet.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Peaceful even though close to pub and customers also parked cars in field. Well spaced pitches. Ok for a night or two to explore area. Good in pub very good,
Disliked When we first pulled in, we needed to fill up with water. Where the water tap is, there was very unsightly piles of wood, and toot lying around. Looked awful! Saving grace you can’t see it once you are on your pitch. Bins were already overflowing so very difficult to dispose of our waste.

Great place to stay but use your own bathroom/shower.
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked The excellent pub on the site is in excellent condition and sells a wide range of food and drink. The campsite is right behind the pub and within a 2 mile walk to the Waverney Marian.
Disliked Toilet and shower facilities are very poor.
