The Shottisham Campsite

Ik was blij met Lovely leafy site with large pitches. Love the chickens walking around, the alpacas and other animals.

Ik was niet blij met We have been coming for 4 years and the facilities has deteriorating over the years. The showers need a good scrub, the showers are too hot for me to use, the wood tiles outside the shower cubicles can’t be cleaned. The washing up area needs a new roof and a daily ( at least) clean. We see that the campsite still advertise a Cafe, well in 4 years it has never been open and I don’t think it ever will open. The electricity supply is very iffy. We don’t think we will be back again.

Ik was blij met A lovely open site with lots of room between vans/tents ensuring privacy.
Fabulous walks nearby, long or short which was lovely for the dog. Children will love seeing alpacas, sheep, goats, chickens etc and able to attend a guided feeding occasion. The Sorrell Horse pub close by was lovely. Only a 10 minute walk. A lovely weekend break, thank you.

Ik was niet blij met Would have liked the cafe to be open and maybe a small shop.
My early afternoon shower was tepid but probably my fault for leaving it so late.
We will be back!!

Van de manager: Thank you for your lovely review and I am so pleased you liked staying on the campsite and enjoyed all the fabulous walks nearby.

Sorry about the showers, as we are not yet that busy I didn't have them at maximum capacity, but I have remedied that now. Unfortunately, as we are so rural we only have 2-phase electricity which means the water heats up more slowly and it can run out at busy times. I'm hoping to invest in some more solar panels over the next year which should help.

Similarly our rural location means it is hard for the cafe to sustain itself when it is not peak season - I also need to get some more help ion running it - more plans for the future.
hope to see you again soon

Ik was blij met Spacious pitches.
Quiet & peaceful.
Loved the animals
Great location

Ik was niet blij met Had a cold shower on the 1st night.
After that shower was lovely & hot.
Facilities could struggle on a busy weekend

Van de manager: Hi,
Thank you for your lovely review and I am pleased you enjoyed the animals and the peace and quiet - we are so lucky here.

Sorry about the hot water - as it isn't very busy at the moment I didn't have the water heater at maximum capacity. I have remedied that now and hopefully it solves the problem. I wil also ask the electrician to double check the immersions in case one of them is broken.

as we are very rural we only have access to 2-phase electricity so we are limited in how much water we can heat up at once. While the tanks are continually heating it does mean that sometimes in busy times of the day it can run a bit cold. I'm hoping to get more solar panels which might help with this.
hope to see you again soon

Ik was blij met Lovely campsite with clean facilities and beautiful surroundings. Shame the cafe was closed, will be back to try it next time.

Van de manager: Thank you for your lovely review. I am so pleased you had a lovely time staying at the campsite. The Friday night pop-up wood-fired pizzeria will be open from late May onwards. Cafe will hopefully re-open for weekend brunch and lunch next year. Hope to see you again soon

Ik was blij met Quiet site, big spacey pitches. Showers are lovely and hot and very clean, along with the toilet facilities . Lovely location in a sleepy rural village, but with facilities like a pub and a large kids park.

Ik was blij met No check in. Clean site. Lots of room per pitch. Easily accessible toilets. Toilets clean and spacious. Showers also good size ( didn’t use as we stayed one night but looked clean).Park for children. Very easy and relaxed entry and exit to the site. Didn’t get to use a lot the site had to offer but will return in the future and would recommend.

Ik was niet blij met Not really one to add. I guess WiFi could be better but doesn’t matter if you want to escape the tech world. No signal for my phone either but it’s good to disconnect for me.

Van de manager: Thank you so much for your lovely review, I am so pleased that you enjoyed staying on the campsite and I look forward to welcoming you back again in the future. The phone coverage is awful - one of the downsides of living in such a rural (but beautiful) spot. I am still struggling to sort out the wi-fi system I had installed - there appears to be no ongoing support which is disappointing, but I might try and change providers in the hope that it will help

Ik was blij met We had a lovely time and the host Anya was fantastic. The site is very clean and nicely spaced out between sites. Great access to a play park for the kids and they loved the animals. Great location for getting around.
