Pool Bridge Farm

Ik was blij met: Lovely setting, excellent friendly staff. Idyllic swimming lakes. Large flat field. Plenty of space. We did have a lovely weekend stay, Swimming, Sauna (paid extra), local walk, running, pub. Would recommend the swimming, not camping.

Ik was niet zo blij met: No tap, showers, toilets washing up, at the camp field. Significant walk to a small, shared block shared with day visitors. Only one shower! One washing up sink. The cost for this is far too high. The most expensive campsite I have ever stayed on. I have had better amenities on £5 a night farmer's field. My score is just for the camping and value for money.

Ik was blij met: Great pools, handsome & mature planting of trees and around the lakes and Meadow, relaxed admin, distance of Meadow from facilities, bird song, carp in ‘secret’ pool. Staff in café very friendly and helpful.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Rough roads, distance from Meadow to facilities (!), insufficient facilities (I can see new buildings being started though). Lake access points sometimes difficult for the aged & infirm, improvements would be welcome.

Ik was blij met: Pool Bridge Farm is a very special place. It is a beautiful peaceful place to relax and unwind. The camping field was flat and dry surrounded by trees and birdsong. The swimming lakes that are included for camping are truly spectacular. So well kept with basic but great facilities. The saunas were also gorgeous.

Ik was niet zo blij met: The camping field is due for a toilet and shower block soon. This will make a real difference as the water tap and showers are a long way from the campsite and the portaloos were dirty and smelly.

Ik was blij met: The camp is tranquil and I got to combine 2 hobbies at the same time wild swimming 🏊‍♂️ and camping 🏕 as iam new to the swimming part I found allmthe other participant's welcoming and had so much knowledge to share. A great 3 night break for me and my camping friend. Glad they are investing in both sides of my hobbies to make all stays e joyable for all. Loved that Jack the ja know joined us for hot chocolate and cake after our swim.

Ik was blij met: Pool bridge farm is delightful, it was great to have access to the swimming lakes included with the camping; they were really beautiful and great to swim in. The onsite cafe had really good food and staff were lovely.

Ik was niet zo blij met: There were no real facilities included with camping except for three portaloos on the campsite. A particular omission was the lack of water points with camping. One main block had proper toilets and a washup/sink & water point, but this was a 5 minute walk from the campsite. The website said shower facilities were available for campers, but there was only one shower and it wasn't open during our stay.

Ik was blij met: The location- it was easy to find and very convenient for us. Nature- it was fantastic we saw a barn owl, kestrels, a heron, ducks, as well as the cheeky resident jackdaw. Being able to swim in the lakes as often/ much as we wanted whilst there was a real tonic. Having the camping field to ourselves was amazing too, I felt so relaxed by the time we left. There were picnic tables dotted around the field which was really helpful and the campfires and logs were great too.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Portaloos, but they did put some lovely pictures in them to try and spruce them up a bit! I think they're aiming to have a new amenities block in the camping field in time for the summer. I think the lack of facilities made it quieter though, so in that way this was a plus for us. Lack of bins/ recycling facilities. This wasn't really an issue for us because we were just staying 2 nights and don't mind taking our rubbish home but it could be an issue if you have a family and are staying longer.
