Kedvelték Easy to find, very helpful lady on checkin.

Nem kedvelték Arrived on a Sunday, the toilet/shower block was in a state... Strong smell of urine and dirty. It was cleaned the next morning and fine after that. The electric hookup pitches for tents was very cramped and everyone on top of each other. The pitch next to us had a caravan on it with an abandoned car parked next to it...

The key is to book a non electric pitch as there was loads of open fields and space. Of we stay there again that's what we would do. That would be a more positive experience.

Kedvelték It’s a big site if you’re off grid camping

Nem kedvelték This place promises a lot, but delivers very little. We’ve stayed at many sites across the country and unfortunately, this was probably one of the worst we’ve stayed experienced

First impressions weren’t great. Reception was dowdy, the welcome completely lacking in personality, and the so-called shop was barely worthy of the description. Sadly, things didn’t improve from there.

The river was one of the main things that attracted us, particularly as the site is advertised as having a river running through it. Technically it may do, but the main field is so far away that you realistically needed to drive to it. Definitely not the riverside camping experience the description suggests.

The shower facilities were another low point. The cubicles were postage-stamp sized, with nowhere sensible to get changed privately. You were effectively expected to shower in the tiny cubicle and then dry and get dressed in a communal changing area. Not something I’d expect from a campsite of this size.

The whole place felt sprawling, unloved, dowdy, with very little to no atmosphere.

If you’re off grid, the one positive is its sheer size. If you want to disappear into a field away from everyone, you could probably find a very isolated position and be perfectly happy, but you’d need to drive to use the facilities. We walked around the perimeter one day and found a few feasible human turds!

For us, it promised considerably more than it delivered. We left wondering how somewhere that sounded so good on paper could feel quite so disappointing in reality. No farm, no shop, no restaurant (closing down). We certainly wouldn’t return.

Kedvelték I didn't go.

Nem kedvelték I booked this site without checking reviews.
The next day, I watched Bongo Bens review on U-tube which I found appalling, and decided I would forfeit the £124 that I had paid, rather than visit a site in such a squalid state.
You live and learn.
Obviously, I fidn't go, so make up your own minds.

One of the fields has not been cut recently and due to the extreme dry conditions if cut with the tractor it would cause too much of a dust cloud.
The toilets and showers had 3 daily cleans, however in-between cleans the facilities can become messy, we do ask guests to tidy up after themselves unfortunately not everyone does this.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

Kedvelték Location is very good, great for walks

Nem kedvelték The condition of the pitches , size of the pitches and demarcation of each pitch. Nothing better than a farmers field

Kezelői megjegyzés: The electric pitches are small compared to non-electric and close together, as you were on non-electric you had a lot of space.
You are the first to say we are nothing better than a farmers field however you will recommend us and visit again.
We look forward to your next visit where you can enjoy the country and river walks and the Chinese restaurant located next to the exit barrier will be open.

Kedvelték Very nice place

Kedvelték Huge site with plenty of space. Lots of room for kids to run around safely. Easy friendly check in,secure site with entry barrier. Small shop with a few essentials and sweets / ice cream.
No need to cook if you don’t want to as local takeaways deliver to the site.
The toilets, showers and washing up area were kept clean.
The main draw for us is the access to the river as we have an inflatable boat. There are wooden steps down into the water which were great for the kids. Nice shallow area by the steps which the grandchildren loved.
