What customers say
Peaceful rural spot, praised for top-notch loos and showers. Dale's a great host, and the pub's lekker. Perfect for walkers on Offa's Dyke, near White Castle. Narrow roads, but the views and vibe make it a winner. Many keen to return.

Liked I spent the night here on NYE with my dog because I wanted to be away from it all and I was nervous as this was the first solo trip I had done. The site is beautiful and I had a great spot for the sunset, the pub was welcoming and cosy, the owners were brilliant and very friendly. The facilities were impeccable and I felt so safe being here especially as a female travelling alone. It was SO cold though and we decided to head down to the pub in the evening for a few hours, I am glad I did. I was welcomed, we had music and snacks in the evening which was a lovely lovely touch. The pitch I parked up the top so I could get the best sunset and sunrise and it was beautiful. The views and surrounding area was stunning and I will definitely be returning when it's a little warmer!!!!

Liked Toilets/Shower rooms spotless and well cared for. Pub charming and host Dale very welcoming. Very quiet site and dog friendly.
Although no food available Dake recommended local takeaways that deliver and even allowed us to eat in the pub providing plates and cutlery. If you ask nicely you will also be treated to a tour of an American truck and Harley trike.

Great site in the rolling countryside
Fully-serviced hardstanding pitch
Liked Ive been using Pitchup for years and rarely leave reviews. This place was great, though. Dale was a great host and the site was very nice. The walking was very enjoyable despite the weather being awful. The beer in Dale's pub afterwards was very welcome. I hope your leg heals soon, Dale.

Liked Just stayed 2 nights. Should have been 3, but the weather convinced us not to. Loved the site! Friendly and helpful owner Dale who met us on arrival. The toilets were very clean and the showers were proper showers. Enjoyed a drink at the pub and was thrilled to be shown a classic American truck. That was a bonus. Some reviews mentioned the small roads leading to the site. We found the roads no worse than roads we have taken in Devon and Cornwall even with a dual axel extra wide caravan. We highly recommend this site.

Liked Lovely position, single track road for 3 Miles be warned. Great bathrooms.
Disliked No contact from owner apart from text asking for balance owed. Said did you find the the toilets 5 hours after we arrived, even thought let him know when we were arriving.
No rubbish bins apart from overflowing skip. One night stop ....enough.
