Gostou: Having the Watercress line literally on your doorstep. The views were spectacular and the site in general is a lovely little spot. The cleaner in the evenings did an absolutely fantastic job in cleaning the shower and toilet facilities considering she had a pretty tough job!!

Não gostou: That campsite users have to share toilet and shower facilities with the public. Makes it feel like you have to rush about early in the morning to get yourself washed etc. Also toilets became extremely busy and untidy at times. Also disliked that the public were able to access the campsite and have free reign to have picnics etc

Gostou: Lovely location, nice pitches, fantastic toilets, showers and wash up facilities.

Não gostou: Supposed to be a dog free site, but a family had two dogs running up and down the pitches chasing balls when we were trying to set up, then another person walking his dog on the second day….

Gostou: Excellent site, great pitches, really nice location, washing up, toilet and shower facilities are all top notch! Deffo coming back to camp here again!

Não gostou: Only sight dislike was the wooden steps leading down the slope from the pitch need a little tlc, slippery wooden steps when it rained and a bit of a depression behind the steps starting to form, nothing major though.

Gostou: Location was perfect for myself and my teenage son, gorgeous views over the countryside and sounds of the wildlife and the watercress line steam and diesel locos right next door for my son. Toilets and shower block was clean and well stocked as well as the washing up area, good lighting on the paths after dusk. Good local information was displayed. The first of our many visits I feel, to this gem of a place

Gostou: Good campsite, good location. Excellent toilet block with hot showers.

Não gostou: No-one available at check in, did not pick up the phone. Just assumed where I could camp and pitched. I had no contact with any site owner all weekend, which is fine if there were some instructions emailed or available on site. No working water taps and none of the washing up taps worked. I had to wash up and get water from the bathroom sinks which was not ideal. Probably great in summer but if it is open all year round then basic provision like a water tap and wash up station should be available.

Gostou: We booked a safari tent called Annie for two nights in the last weekend of September and were lucky to have good weather. The tent was comfortable, well equipped and warm especially in the evenings with the wood burner burning. A couple of minor issues were quickly and politely addressed. The shower and toilet block was clean and warm (yay) and the site was attractive and well maintained. The safari tents also had allocated parking nearby. We had a great time travelling on the Watercress line steam trains, walking in and around the villages/town around the train line and meeting friends for lunch. Once back at the campsite in the early evening it was lovely to kick back, relax and read, play games, chat etc. We did not even use our phones much.

Não gostou: The only reason I have four stars was the minor issues. We will definitely be visiting again.
