What customers say
Friendly, spacious site with big pitches, cafe, play area & animals. Praised for location, cleanliness & staff. Facilities are basic but clean, with upgrades planned. Some found them "rustic" or dated; noted steep entrances & external noise.

Electric grass pitch (water hook-up)
Liked Lovely site quiet and well maintained. Beautiful sunset! Facilities clean.
Disliked While the showers and toilets were clean and well maintained there were not really enough showers and wash basins for the size of the site. While I like rustic there needed to be more indoor wash basins.
Also would not recommend the Sunset field if you have anything which is susceptible to wind as anything above a light breeze comes whistling across the field from all direction. - Just a fact of nature and just a warning - our blow up drive away did not like it one bit!
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for the comments. I wonder whether you found all of our washing facilities we have some additional in a building attached to the site. We could have pointed you in the right direction had we known your concerns at the time of your stay. Similarly we would have been happy to give you a pitch on our more sheltered field. We are up quite high here and the wind does blow across but I have to say it was a very windy weekend in April.
We were not aware of any queues to use the facilities and have an additional two showers ready to be opened up once maintenance allows.
We hope to see you again and please feel free to ask for a more suitable pitch should the need arise.
Not as expensive as other sites you get what you pay for .
Electric grass pitch (water hook-up)
Liked Great corner grass pitch plenty of room quiet site , very rustic needed a coat of paint and a tart up in places , money being spent on the loo blocks ladies showers pristine in presentation and shiny and new , lovely hosts some activities on site .
Disliked The wooden barn area hopefully was next in list for repair it was very unkept where table tennis was .
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you , we are rustic but as you see we update as and when we can. The wooden barn area is not now used as much and does need a tidy up but we will be relocating the table tennis and it at present serves as an undercover area, especially useful for cyclists to sit/eat and it houses our communal camping fridge.
