What customers say
Pleasant canalside spot, lauded for friendly owners, level pitches & local access. Facilities are basic but clean. Some noise issues & cold showers reported. Decent value, though rule enforcement & toilets could be better.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We were met by the owner on arrival and were welcomed! The site is perfect for a night or two, and the bathrooms, though simple, are very clean and well stocked. It’s placement was also perfect for going walking round the dock to the coast, highly recommend if you’re wanting some peace in reach of some beautiful scenery!

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked We stayed in a tentbox and the campsite it really good ground isn't boggy and plenty of space. The surrounding area was lovely walking distance to the canal, few shops and a pub. Highly reccomend if you want to get down to basics and have a peaceful break.
Owner also provided an extention plug for electric and free firepit (limited fire pits available but if you ask him if one is available he will lend you it)
Disliked This is 'wild' camping but something to keep in mind the showers are cold no hot water and the cubicles for the toilets are quite small so if you are tall will struggle to close the door or get changed in them after a shower but this is a small dislike this hasn't put me off booking this site again in the future.

A lovely site with a friendly owner who was very helpful & welcoming.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked A lovely little campsite with lots of beautiful surroundings. The owner was very helpful & welcoming & the atmosphere was great. Everyone was enjoying themselves having barbeques or fires. Lots of different music which did go quiet around a reasonable hour for the younger children. Would recommended the older generation who dislike noise to go to an adults only site as this seemed to upset them. Defiantly a place for families. We will be coming again.
Disliked The toilets/shower block could do with a little TLC.
