Small quirky villiage

Not enough shower cubicles at busier times

Good updates via social media on what to do in the area.

Not enough information given upon arrival, location of services, water etc.
Toilets not cleaned often enough, and no loo roll available in mornings.

Location, shower and toilet combined cubicles, Chinese takeaway was delicious and great value for money. Obviously due to COVID-19 restrictions some of the facilities were not available but that can’t be helped.
The washing up facilities were great and there is even a kettle, toaster and microwave for campers to use if they need to.

We had a loud party of people arrive on the Saturday night who pitched up next to us and were extremely loud until 3am and we didn’t know the procedure for reporting this to management so we had to put up with it (they were very drunk and we felt that asking them to keep the noise down would have just made things worse).
The site was extremely busy and that meant that there were not enough toilets and there was always a que, however they were in the process of building extra toilets to accommodate the extra campers.

This is a stunning location near Ripon, Yorkshire. All grass pitches which suits us fine. We didn’t have electric hook up but took a solar panel with us so it didn’t matter. We got to choose where to park up in a huge meadow, with only 2 other groups in the field. We had a view of the valley & sheep grazing all around us.

Showers/ toilets could do with being more regularly cleaned especially with the dreaded Covid-19 about.

Fantastic campsite. The owners were fantastic - helped us out a couple of times and super friendly!

Location

Complete lack of facilities. Very poor facilities. 50+ pitches, circa 200 people and only 2 internal showers and half a dozen toilets resulted in queues at peek times.

Only one sink for washing up - actually gave up waiting and had to take dirty cooking gear home.

Building gear and tool laying about and a danger to children. Not good enough for a site charging a premium price. At the prices charged expected an electrical hookup.

Very easy going campsite which we love, nice scenery and close to local amenities. Showers also nice and hot.

Felt additional cleaning was required in the toilets and showers given the number of guests. We also felt there should have been sanitiser available in the shared facilities.

Clean facilities, beautiful views, helpful staff, close to the village with a good shop and decent pub. Lovely walks in the area.
