Hoad Meadow Camping

Kedvelték Friendly owner and great to have the animals for the children and liked the segregated pitches with the fencing

Nem kedvelték Toilets and shower facilities need to be better been this should be the first investment once you get really established as a site

Kedvelték Unfortunately, I can't think of any positive comments.

Nem kedvelték I wouldn't call Hoad Meadow a campsite—it's more like a scout camp. The site is untidy and poorly maintained, with a generally chaotic appearance. We didn't dare use the toilets or showers. We were glad we only had to stay for one night.

Kedvelték Dan, Stacey and Eva are so friendly and accommodating. It was our first ever glamping trip and we're glad we picked this beautiful, peaceful, rural and fun setting. Our children enjoyed the freedom of biking around, seeing the animals and playing in the park with Eva and other children. It is a safe and secure campsite. We had pizza and cheesy chips on our first night which were delicious! We only booked one night but we loved it so much we stayed a second night. One of our favorites were Derick the snoring pig, so funny! At night you can buy wood for the fire pit, sit and relax till late in the warmth of it.
We have put Apraca retreat on our list for a visit every year.
Thank you so much!

Nem kedvelték Nothing to dislike! I have read some comments about the composite toilets and open top showers. The toilets are cleaned regularly, it's only some users that don't follow the instructions to use them and make a mess. Dan is quick to clean up after.
The one star review is not a true representation of this lovely campsie, very unjustified in my opinion.
It is an eco friendly site, the facilities make it even more unique. If you like the outdoors and camping then this is the place for you.

Kedvelték My family liked the animals especially the alpacas. Their fur was so soft it was like a stuffed toy.

Nem kedvelték The condition of the toilet is not good. My children hesitated to go.
There was no light in the showers. We can’t take the shower after dinner at night.

Kezelői megjegyzés: We’re glad your family enjoyed meeting the animals, especially the alpacas, who are always a highlight for children. We’re sorry you felt the toilets and showers let the experience down. Our compost toilets are emptied and cleaned daily and are part of the eco-friendly, rustic style of our site. We understand they are different from conventional facilities, but most guests find them clean and quirky once familiar.

Lighting is deliberately kept minimal at night to reduce disturbance to wildlife and protect our dark skies. However, we do recommend guests bring a torch for late showers, as part of the off-grid camping experience. We are also reviewing options for subtle solar lighting to make it easier for families in the evenings.

As a small, family-run retreat, we constantly balance sustainability with comfort, and feedback like yours helps us make improvements while staying true to the eco character of Hoad Meadow.
