Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: First time camping, really enjoyed that it was a small campsite so we could take are time to learn the ropes. The facilities were super clean and you had everything thing you needed (washing up liquid, hand soap, washing up bowl, kettle, plates and cutlery) The owner (Rosie) made it super easy and clear where everything was and how it worked. Perfect for any campers that are looking to get out the way with some peace and quiet!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: This is the most beautiful secluded campsite. We were blessed with good weather which made it the perfect stay. The night sky is stunning and I even saw a shooting star! The children loved being able to run around in nature and the novelty of the compost toilet, which was great and very clean. The shower was a highlight and the nicest outdoor shower I have had. Communication was fantastic. I would highly recommend.
Disliked: We loved it all

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked: A really beautiful and peaceful site, just a few large pitches dotted around a meadow. Compost toilets and hot shower which were always spotless. Our girls (3 and 5) had a lovely time playing in the long grass and paddling in the stream. A very warm welcome from Rosie (and her dog Tilly) who was so helpful. Rural location but large supermarket within 20 mins drive.
Disliked: No, nothing. It was pretty much perfect.
