Réponse du gestionnaire : Once again I cannot understand why if you are muddled up on site you did not ask.
You state I am a friendly owner, so approaching me would not have been an issue.
8 out of 10 is not good enough for me!
I feel offended if our rating was a result of you being confused!
As I have mentioned before this affects our overall rating.
Maybe I need to think carefully who I share this gem of a site with.

A aimé We were on a non electric hook up pitch in the corner of the field - it was absolutely gorgeous. Lovely walk to the pub for a meal. No shops within walking distance though so come prepared!

Réponse du gestionnaire : sorry not good enough !
upon arrival we told you
10 out of 10 is the only acceptable score
you made no comments on where we failed
i am fed up with not getting the max as it affects our ratings
what did was do so wrong ?
sorry pete if
we did not a score to expectations you should have told us !
just a warning to other visitors if we don’t max expectations we need to know when you are on site and we can do something about it
bank holiday when you visited was really busy
Ruth my beautiful wife and i did everything to accommodate our guests in
quite frankly the toilets and showers were left it a shit condition
maybe we need to retire and stop sharing our special place with outsiders
I am more annoyed at a one digit downward review on a weekend we worked so hard to make great for all our visitors
i don’t think we are a site for you to revisit or recommend to friends
I am sorry but
i am really offended
Better you kept the review to yourself

A aimé Absolute gem of a site. Wonderful setting, great local produce to buy on site, beautiful yard bar, clean facilities, good water pressure, lots of animals (sheep, cows, ducks, geese, chickens, even a Harris hawk), I had ear plugs which I was grateful for otherwise I can imagine the animals would wake you up early! Owners are funny and helpful, nothing too much trouble. Lots of dog walking areas, pretty woodland. Other campers happy to chat and very friendly. Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend

A aimé Fabulous farm setting with huge pitches. It was very quiet during our stay but I can imagine some weekends can be very busy. Norman has a wealth of Knowledge and is happy to answer any questions you have regarding farm life. To the rear of the farm is a circular walk that is lit during the evening and is a wonderful place to walk the dog (should you bring one). A word to the wise, this is a working farm and letting your dog off for a crafty lead free run is not an option (regardless of how well behaved your pooch is) with farmyard animals all over the place things could go very wrong very quickly.

N'a pas aimé I'm struggling to find anything wrong with Roundoak farm, the proximity of the unisex toilets & showers to the washing up facilities might not be to everyone's liking, and the addition of a shelf/wire basket in the unisex showers would be helpful to put your soap or shower gel on but that said the facilities are very good and are kept very clean and there are other places on the farm to wash up, have a shower and toilets to use.

A aimé Thank you to Norman and Ruth for a very peaceful stay on the farm. The highland cow calves were delightful and we thoroughly enjoyed our lambs chops for dinner which we bought on site. We were treated to the most beautiful sunset over the grazing cows and sheep.
