Nightingales Rustic Camping

Likte The site itself is in a pleasant rural location and I appreciate that a refund of £20 was provided, despite my pitch only costing £15. An alternative field was also offered later in the evening.

Likte ikke Unfortunately, my stay was ruined by the behaviour of other guests. I repeatedly reported anti-social behaviour and felt increasingly uncomfortable and unsafe as the evening progressed. The situation became serious enough that I felt compelled to contact the police.

As a lone female camper accompanied only by my dog, I was disappointed by the way my concerns were handled. I felt unsupported and, at times, dismissed when trying to report what was happening.

By the time an alternative field was offered, it was approximately midnight and I had already dismantled my tent in darkness in preparation to leave. Having already experienced the events of the evening, I did not feel comfortable remaining on site and did not consider it reasonable to move all of my equipment and re-pitch my tent elsewhere in the dark.

Whilst I appreciate the refund, the overall experience left me feeling unsafe and unable to enjoy my stay.

Fra bestyreren: Hi Dave,

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that our campsite wasn’t the right fit for you.

As a rustic countryside campsite, we aim to provide a peaceful environment where guests can enjoy nature, wildlife, woodland walks, beautiful views, and stunning sunsets. Many of our visitors choose us specifically for this experience, so it’s disappointing to hear that it didn’t meet your expectations.

You arrived after our advertised check-in hours, but I still took the time to personally welcome you and show you around our family-run campsite to ensure you were settled in comfortably.

Regarding access from your pitch, there are two routes available: one involves a small incline, while the other follows a flat lane. Guests are free to choose whichever route best suits their needs.

In terms of facilities, we believe we offer a good range for a rustic camping experience, including a kitchen area with a fridge, kettle and microwave, two showers, drinking water, and both flushing toilets and portable toilets. All of these facilities are provided free of charge for our guests.

At £12, we work hard to provide a simple, affordable countryside camping experience with no extra charges for using the facilities on site. While we appreciate that rustic camping isn’t for everyone, we’re proud of what we offer and of the positive experiences enjoyed by many of our guests.

We wish you all the best with your future camping trips.

Kind regards,

Charlotte

Likte Beautiful farmers field, stayed for one night. Charlotte is lovely & made us feel very welcome. Farm shop, wood, toilets, showers, kettle, microwave, fridge and hot water. Was so nice waking up to the little calves grasing in pasture in the morning. Would definitely recommend & return
