What customers say
Quiet, adult-only site praised for spotless state, pretty Kilburn setting with White Horse views. Spacious, level pitches with water/elec. Friendly, helpful owners. Short walk to pub. No toilets/showers, but acceptable for a peaceful getaway.

What an absolute gem
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked What an absolutely beautiful little site. Perfectly flat pitch, (pitch 4). I can't comment on other pitches. Water on each pitch. Adults only site with motorhome grey water drop near the exit. Excellent recycling facilities as well.
Short walk into the village where we were blown away by the beauty of the village. We also visited the local pub as well. This is another site which we will add to our go to places.
There are unspoilt views of the hills and a perfect view of the Kilburn white horse. If you visit one site this year, please make it this one.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Beautiful, quiet, secluded location. Our pitch looked onto the white horse of Kilburn. We had water and electric on the pitch. The host let us get settled in and then came to see if everything was OK. A short walk took us into Kilburn village and a lovely evening meal in the local pub.
