Daisy Mays Farm

Ik was blij met We had an overnight stop here on our way home. Our dog was fascinated with the goats. We had a warm welcome and were told we could park where we wished. It was a busy day so there weren’t many spaces available. We didn’t notice any hard standing pitches. It would be a great stopover for young children being able to access the animals when the farm has shut for the day.
The toilets & showers are ‘rustic’ but it is a farm and we had read about this before we arrived.

Ik was niet blij met There is nothing to dislike about this campsite. It is close to Stansted airport so you have to expect planes going over frequently.

Ik was blij met Open fires

Ik was niet blij met The fact there's only 2 TOILETS one with a lock that was broken and a light that would turn off after 30seconds. the day we left (early) there were around 40-50 pitches being used, they had emptied the horse field to be used for pitches. We left a night early. The que for the toilets were ridiculously especially with young children. One volunteer moaned at me and told me to "tell the other campers to stop taking the toilet rolls" but the fact was they were placing 2 in each toilet for over 150 people...
These toilet are also used for non camping day visitors to the petting farm which increased the numbers.

The volunteers were all teenage girls that would walk around shouting crying and vaping. One girl would continuously whip the horse whilst the other stood asking each other why's she whipping him so much.
The only staff member who was welcoming was a young girl called Amber who worked in the petting farm area, all other members had 0 customer services etiquette.

This place felt completely lawless.
The animals enclosure needed work, we had to untangle a few goats in our visit alone.

The train ride was £2 per person, ridiculously overpriced. The task was to count the carrots which were mostly mouldy old teddies. There was an abandoned train cart right next to the track with Christmas decorations inside.. try explaining that to the kids in August?

On our first night we had to get the kids to stay inside the tent as there was a unannounced out of control horse galloping around the tent and open fire being ridden by a teenager screaming "don't you dare disrespect me" whilst whipping it non stop.

I understand this is a working farm, but the whole camping aspect seemed just like a money grab. No rules. No staff seen. Not enough facilities for the amount of people.

Avoid if you want a quiet peaceful camping experience

Ik was blij met Freedom to pitch where we liked and animals
Sandpit and stream area

Ik was niet blij met Toilet and shower facilities - not enough for the number of campers as well as an open farm during the day.
Either no hand towel or no toilet paper on every trip to the loo.
Needed another bin point for rubbish not just at the entrance.
No den building as advertised
