Brook House Farm Camping and Caravan Site

Lovely welcome & facilities. We did drive straight passed the entrance so I wish I had called for directions. We didn't use the facilities but did use the onsite pub/café for drinks and cake which were very nice.

A lot of families onsite, it was a very nice atmosphere and not at all noisy.

Views were lovely and made a nice base for trips out.

Would have liked a spot that wasn't next to the shower block though as we were looking forward to a lie in so the chit chat outside woke up up (not before the birds about 2 hours earlier, but that's to be expected in the countryside)

Loved the people there, the owners couldn't do enough for you. Have us a choice of pitches and on the first night they invited us to sit with them and some others who have their caravans pitched there in the bar and had a great night. The toilets and showers were nice and clean and the afternoon tea and breakfast were amazing. Can't wait to go back with friends very soon. Highly recommended.

Quiet site. Nice pitches.

The lodge itself was really nice, the bed was comfy, has a telly with freeview, everything you need in the kitchen to make food, outside the lodge was nice with a fire pit especially for the nighttime and for cooking aswell as having a cafe/bar with drinks. The staff and owner were really friendly and helpful, very welcoming, gave us leaflets of where to go with different actives and made sure we settled in, really reinsuring and approachable. The food was really nice, and the drinks were well priced with a nice new larger that they gave us a free sample of before purchase. Lots of scenery to be explored.

Feel like the toilets could’ve been cleaned more, (overflowing bins). The postcode took us a few minutes out of the way which was confusing however not their fault. Feel like the cabin itself is a little bit over priced.

We liked the campsite itself, the main field where we stayed was very pleasant and spacious, with a nice relaxed atmosphere. Useful to have a bar/cafe on site, which had a nice outside seating area. A great area with loads of excellent walking and places to visit. Owner was helpful.

We rented a bell tent which was close to £100/night. Whilst the tent is spacious you just get a bed (made up), a spare mattress plus an outdoor table and two chairs. I don't think that's amazing value, bearing in mind you could stay in a pretty nice B&B for that price! Admittedly prices are high everywhere at the time of writing, but next time I think we would go for a cabin or a standard pitch.
The site could also do with more washroom facilities - it has two rooms with shower/WC/sink, one with WC only (no sink!), one washing-up room and a portaloo, which gets dirty quickly.

Great Location, friendly people, clean facilities and great location. Nothing was to much trouble.

Everything was perfect

Location is Lovely. Camped on the river bank, field nice and flat. Bar and gardens are very nice with plenty on offer and a good amount of outside seating. We didnt have our kayak but it looked like it would be easy to launch from the river bank as a path goes down to the waters edge. Wood and fire pit available on site which we loved.

Camping facilities left a bit to be desired. Toilet block a bit too far from camping field and wife really didnt want to use the portaloo located a bit closer as by saturday it was a little smelly and had a wet seat. 2 showers which also have toilets in (not nice if somebody has just done a smelly one) and only 1 extra toilet which didnt have a sink for hand washing. Toilet did have a sink in room next door but this was for dish washing really and on the morning I used the toilet for a sit down visit somebody was next door with a bowl of washing up so couldnt wash my hands. Also the showers had tiled floors with nothing for anti slip so as soon as somebody has showered the floor becomes quit slippy.

The booking said Adults Only which is why we booked. (no young children on camping field) but unfortunately there was a crowd of 3 or 4 families in the middle of the field, all with young children. For the price we paid ( a little on the high side for the facilities) we didnt expect to get woken up early by a very upset screaming child on our adults only field.
