Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you for your kind review and I am glad we were able to offer everything you needed! You make a valid point about about the metal baskets and you may find it hard to believe that I replace these quite regularly but water and metal do not mix! You may have also seen the white plastic basket in the shower room too - but even that is not lasting very well. It is a problem. If anyone has any advice or tips on how to keep these metal shower baskets looking good - please let me know! Or maybe there is a brand that does not rust. I may take them down completely. Hopefully this won't put you off returning to visit! Best wishes Tina

Kedvelték: Very welcoming. Everything you needed for a relaxing quiet break. All amenities clean. Honesty shop had everything that you may need. Dogs were welcomed. Had a thoroughly enjoyable stsy

Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you so much for your kind words and review. I am very pleased that you have used the word 'relaxing' as I definitely see my site as more of a retreat which is why we are always mindful of noise and don't allow music etc on site. We love dogs too and they are very welcome. Hopefully they found the doggie treats! I look forward to welcoming you back. x

Kedvelték: Everything about this site. It was exceptional!

Nem kedvelték: Electric hook up would be the icing on the cake.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Exceptional! What a lovely word to use. Thank you for your kind comments. I know everyone asks about electric hookup but sadly - with the hideous energy costs - I don't think this is something that I will be contemplating in the near future. I only hope access to the plugs and electricity inside the facilities made camping a little more pleasant for you. I look forward to welcoming you back. Warm wishes Tina

Kedvelték: Neatness of site. Cleanliness of facilities. Honestly shop fully stocked. Although non electric they provide hairdryers, fridge freezer, toaster, microwave and an area you can charge your phones.

Kezelői megjegyzés: What a lovely review - thank you for your kind words. We work very hard at ensuring the site is always clean and welcoming - and it has been hard work with all the rain we have had and endless mud being carted into the shower/toilet facilities. I am so pleased you appreciated all the little electrical items. They can make such a difference to a stay - especially if the weather is poor. Thank you again and I look forward to welcoming you back. Warm wishes Tina

Kedvelték: Absolute Gem this place a proper home from home and more

Nem kedvelték: Having to leave

Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you for your lovely review and I am so happy that you enjoyed the peace and quiet. I like to think that we are VERY motorbike friendly, especially with all the added extras on site. I look forward to welcoming you back. Kind regards Tina

Kedvelték: Fantastic campsite, easy no nonsense system to find a pitch. Facilities well looked after and clean. There is an honesty shop, we just bacs transferred what we purchased. Nice and quiet being an adults only site. No electric points, but we are self sufficient so not a problem. A nice Pub just a short walk away. Great for a relaxing break away 👍

Nem kedvelték: Nothing, other than the price, like a lot of sites in this area, the price has hiked way too much in the last couple of year's. Tolerable for one night, but puts you off staying any longer.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Dear Colin - Thank you for your kind review - I am very grateful to you. Bless you. You are always welcome to return. Whilst you haven't reduced your overall score due to your thoughts on the price, and I do appreciate this, I feel I must comment on this as it is not the first time that it has been commented on. Firstly, I do keep a check on prices in the local area and yes, some are cheaper than mine; but these sites don't offer all that I offer and they are often family sites. Most of us are around the £30 per night mark. Family sites means that there is always a guaranteed level of campers staying on site whilst adult only sites reduces this guarantee considerably and therefore often my site can consist of a handful of campers. But campers come here because they like the quietness of the site and I plan to keep it like this. Just because on occasions I only have a few campers here, I don't suddenly reduce the facilities or the cleaning to reflect this; there will still be access to everything and showers can be taken throughout the day and night - the system runs constantly, like all the gadgets in the kitchen, including the fridges. I believe that some people may look around and think All this money just to stay in a field! But there are many 'background' costs that you don't see. There is the insurance and memberships, websites and booking systems, commission taken from each booking (I don't see that £30!!) there are bank charges, bookkeeper and accountant and staff costs, the daily running costs, the electricity of the social area and running of the shower unit and hot water ALL day/night long. There are cleaning costs. I have to maintain the site to ensure that the buildings are in good order and there are costs in maintaining the grounds. I recently had the pergola built to keep my campers dry in the rain and then sides put onto this (in total, this has cost me close to £10,000),and I am always looking at ways to invest for ongoing improvements and new projects to enhance campers experience. I had the showers re-done last year, (£16,000) When my accountant sends back my figures every year I always query where have I spent all that money! And I do spend hours going through the income and outgoings, and I can always see what it has been spent and vow to cut back another year; but I don't because I want to keep up the standards and facilities here. But times are hard for us all and general living costs have risen as we all know. Even going out for a coffee and sandwich can cost around £7-10 so I think perhaps £15 per head per night to stay in a lovely quiet location is perhaps in line with daily living costs. I am not sure where else you would stay for that amount of money - not even a youth hostel! Like all other campsites, I cannot guarantee a regular income. I am shut for 6 months of the year; if the weather is bad - like it was this year - income drops - if it is hot - income can also drop as camping is weather dependent so income is never guaranteed but I continue to guarantee the high level of services offered here. The prices will not be increasing again next year and discounts are in place if you plan to stay 7+ nights. Thank you again for your review. I really appreciate this. T.

Kedvelték: The place is very clean, quiet, and also has a nice comunal kitchen where you can boil water, hav toast, and a little shop. The owner is very friendly and attentive.

Kezelői megjegyzés: Thank you so much for your kind review. Most campers appreciate the kitchen area! And there can be social banter and gatherings there too. Tx

Kedvelték: Well kept site. Friendly and attentive owners without being intrusive. Level grass pitches which are well marked out. Fire pit is a bonus. High standard of decor and cleanliness in the showers and toilets. Lots of hot water. Love the honesty shop and the kitchen amenities. Use of the fridge to keep our cider cool was great. Hope to see you again soon.

Nem kedvelték: Nothing to dislike

Kedvelték: Fantastic site, the owner is very welcoming, and the facilities are spotless. We booked last minute as the site we had booked became unsuitable. We are so glad to have discovered this site, definitely coming back

Nem kedvelték: Nothing. Hopefully get some electric hook ups in the future.
