Ridgeway View Campsite

Mi è piaciuto The Location with its beautiful view and silence.

Non mi è piaciuto That the water from the showers went directly to the ground. There was a lot of litter lying around and the bins at the Loos were full eben as there has been No other campers

Mi è piaciuto A lovely location, perfect access to paths and tracks, and plenty of space (even on a busy, good-weather weekend). The very simple facilities are described accurately on the website, so as long as you are not expecting luxury, this site does the job perfectly.

I was not expecting to enjoy the cold showers, but there is something wonderful in having the sky as the roof to the shower cubicle!

I plan to visit again sometime soon.

Non mi è piaciuto There was a problem with water supply on the site for a few hours, but the problem was dealt with efficiently and those staying on site were kept informed about what was happening. Bottles of drinking water were supplied while the repairs were going on, so I thought it was well handled.

Mi è piaciuto Liked the informal feel of it: our visit didn’t feel “managed” or commercial or supervised, and yet everything was well planned and executed from check-in, fire pit and wood collection, instructions and expectations, check-out.
Everyone on site respected the rules on music, no cars and silence after 10.30pm, etc. so we could all just enjoy what we were there for - nature, the big skies, awesome views, and countryside peace and quiet. Wonderful!
Also liked that we were able to just book for a single night.

Non mi è piaciuto I would’ve liked to be able to bring our own raised fire pit and fuel. Having to buy this onsite was almost half the cost of the total visit.

Mi è piaciuto Great venue well maintained - toilets were fine despite there being quite a few campers… I didn’t have a shower but they looked clean and usable. Very easy to find/get on to - very easy going campsite with mixed groups, but in our experience no loud groups or music, so very calm. Lovely views - spotted some hot air balloons in the distance.

Non mi è piaciuto We pre booked a fire pit kit but didn’t get any info about how to get it. Text the number it said to text but didn’t get anything back. Luckily some other people who bought some on the day got responses pretty quickly so we asked them for the code and showed them we had paid so were able to give the kids their marshmallows so all is well that ends well.

Mi è piaciuto We had a mixed experience. The location and setting is lovely. The facilities are very basic, but's priced in. The water stopped one morning due to failed water pump, but the camp management alerted us by sms and drove round soon after issuing generous bottled water to all - excellent service.

Non mi è piaciuto My complaint relates to the "no groups" policy, which implies a relatively quieter location, or at least moderate-size groups that respect the "quiet after 10pm" policy. Our second night one end of the field was occupied by over 200 Duke of Edinburgh Award young people, which though I won't say were raucous they generated a lot of noise and changed the atmosphere quite a lot. Also, one of the kids defecated all over the seat in the portaloo toilet between our tend and their area. I feel that other campers deserved to know that such a group was going to be sharing the location and facilities with such a large group, and their responsible adults should have taken on responsibility for checking the state of shared facilities.

Mi è piaciuto It is what it says on the tin!

Non mi è piaciuto Could some consideration be given to charging less for single people? I paid £22 for each night for the site but would have paid the same amount if there had been 4 of us. it seems unfair to single people, normally in a small tent.
