Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Brilliant view and lovely garden to play on with the children with badminton and rope swings. The children loved the chickens wondering around.
Disliked: Portapottys in the stable
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We love our portapotties. They allow us to use grey water from our rain butts rather than waste drinking water and the waste gets to break down naturally in our septic tank. We do advertise the fact that we are "almost wild camping" and feature pictures of our loos. I can only apologise if they were not for you. We check and clean them three times a day
