Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Great spacious flat pitch, friendly site managers, great location for river activities, good amount of available loos. Was worried when a large group of guys turned up but they were well behaved and family vibe of site probably kept them that way.
Disliked: No showers although this was made really clear in listing and we were only staying two nights so didn’t bother us. Didn’t know about the check in window times until the day before which would have been good to have more clearly when booking as it made the morning journey there a little pressured.

Liked: Loved the riverside pitch with good shade trees and the fire pit where we cooked up a storm. Great to be able to park the car right next to the site. Nice and quiet during the week.

Liked: Really nice clean site, nice and quiet and Clare the owner was so so helpful. She even drives around the site selling firewood so you can have campfires every evening. Nice access to the river, we even hired canoes within 5 minutes walk and had a great time. Will definitely be back in the future.
Disliked: Nothing.
