What customers say
This pretty campsite, in a cherry orchard, is peaceful & well-kept. Guests love the friendly hosts, Karen & Simon, and the super clean facilities, with hot showers. Cars are parked separately, adding to the safety & space. Great location for exploring, with a pub nearby. Highly recommended for a chill getaway!

Electric grass pitch
Liked Another awesome 4 days spent at Painters Farm Campsite. We were a large family group and Simon and Karen were so accommodating throughout our stay. They are always cheerful and ensure our stay was a memorable one. Peaceful location, very clean facilities,
Very reliable wi-fi and the local pub was always a winner with a great selection of food. We have been back home a few days and my children are still talking about how great it was at the Orchard, especially picking the plums from the trees! Thank you Simon and Karen.
