Liked: We camped as a family.of 12, the campsite was lovely, had a little play area, not much in the playbarea BUT the children loved it!! The alpacas was the highlight of the children's time here! They also loved the goats and the pond!! We would definitely return again for a short trip!
Disliked: The toilets were compost, which indodnt really like, but they worked and fulfilled there purpose! The showers could be a bit more insulated as you e ded up showering with all.the slugs and snails! Bit it was still clean enough.

Liked: Easy to locate - not far from the garden centre and short drive to the town shops. Very secure access and CCTV monitored - hosts were onsite and approachable. Freedom to choose where we set up. The animals seemed well cared for - We were worried it would smell on a hot day but it didn't. We ordered chips from the Pizzeria, they were so tasty! They also sell Alpaca candles which was a cute touch. Appreciated the hot water for washing up and well ordered recycling area.
Disliked: Totally respect their ambition to be as green as possible with the toilets but they weren't pleasant to use. Some adjustment to the set up could improve this. I'm short so it was tricky to get on to the seat. There are foot steps to help with this but as they are stored directly underneath they didn't seem hygienic to handle.

Liked: Amazing Campsite. The staff where so friendly and accommodating. The food was really good and well priced. We had a pizza. The Animals were also really fun too they had lots there. Really fun and something different to your usually campsite.
Disliked: Nothing To dislike. As it is a farm the animals can be loud but we thought it made the experience a lot better. Just would recommend staying here if you want it to be really quiet.
