Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The area was lovely. Very tranquil and miles from any towns and on a very quiet country lane.
Disliked: Lack of drinking water being readily available. Was told to ring a number provided if we wanted some. Had no idea from the pictures just how small it was. Two small patches of mown grass at the side of a field which meant things felt cramped and on top of each other. After everyone had pitched up there wasn’t enough room left for the kids to play where they weren’t so close to everyone so they ended up playing right by our tent/kicking their football in to our tent and against our car. Not relaxing for me at all. Also, had an email stating chimneas were available but when I said I’d like one my response wasn’t answered and I never got one. Overall not great and won’t be returning. Area was the only saving grace.

Back to basics site that is what camping is about for us and the friendly nature of the farmer Phil who came to check everything was ok and guide us in the right direction if we needed anything.
My second time here and will be back again next year .

Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked: We spent three nights on this gem of a site. Helpful, friendly owners, (thanks for the matches). Gorgeous views, beautiful night skies and plenty of off road walking trails.
We are self contained so the basic facilities were fine for us. If you like peace and quiet this is a super spot.

Disliked: Non potable water not being easily accessible. We felt £15 a night was high given that this site is more suited to fully self contained units.
