Gostou There is a special feel to the walled garden. Lovely, generous grass pitches and space to wander around like the Lord of the manor. Very nice attention to detail at the Hub, fully equipped kitchen, large open fire for colder evenings, seating under cover, clean toilets and showers.
It was surprisingly quiet with not even half of the pitches occupied. In August.
We also had a nosy at the glamping "tents", set hidden in the woods. Very cool, tamed wilderness experience with no hassel. It's perfect as introduction to camping and remote locations, I can see my city friends being happy there.
Walking up the nearby hill Rubers Law is a pleasant outing of about two to three hours. The views are fantastic, take a picnic!

Não gostou We would have liked to buy the local applejuice but the shop was closed in the morning.
The luggage trolleys are a bit lopsided, which leads to general amusement when people place bets on it toppling over.
And just maybe the toilet capacity would be tight if all pitches were booked?
And the pitches get allocated, which is fine, but if they are not all occupied I would probably give people more space and leave pitches in between free. Instead we were all camped cosily together.

Perfect adventure for 2 little boys They were able to go for adventures round he walled garden,woodland paths to explore, .look for dragonflies in the pond. Apple trees to get Apple's . Vegetable garden growing huge courgettes . Lots of fruit bushes feeding numerous birds to spot. We had a fabulous night away.

Gostou I felt really safe, it was my first time solo camping, as well as my dog's! So I wasn't sure how it would go for either of us.

I needn't have worried, even with some very rainy weather we both had a brilliant time, my pitch was secluded away which I was very grateful for but close to the facilities so trips over didn't mean trekking past other campers. Facilities were spotless, staff were brilliant and clearly taking care of both campers and the gardens and the thought that the site has put into making it easy to set up and have a nice time was really clear.

Other campers were respectful of the quiet times and it all had a nice atmosphere.

We'll be back again for sure!! Thank you all for a lovely first time camping!

Não gostou Nothing it was great, even pitched in very wet weather!

Gostou Everything. Super clean, tidy, well organised site. Well equipped kitchen with fridge and freezer. Toilet/shower block spotless. Plentiful supply of logs for the firepits. Pleasant, friendly, helpful staff. Pitches are well proportioned and nicely spaced out. Lovely sheltered garden for all to use.

Gostou I thought the facilities were outstanding. Showers, toilets, wi-fi, phone recharging, sinks, kettles, fridge etc. The surrounding woodland area was nice.

Não gostou You should probably secure your dog with a dog lead stake or the camp manager will get rather dramatic and claim that you are frightening the children. No matter how cute & gentle your dog is

Gostou Love this site, it's absolutely massive but well planned so that there are small areas set far apart so it feels intimate. Fabulous facilities, kitchen area with fridge and freezer, kettle toaster, microwave. Undercover seating area. Walled garden area perfect for using these facilities, so nice to pop the kettle on without all the fuss of stoves. Even though you can't park your car next to your pitch, trolly's are provided to move your gear but the car park is super close to pitches anyway. Lovely to have a Fire on your pitch and you get a decent amount of logs that last all night for £10 which is a reasonable price. You can walk for around the site as its huge. I felt very safe. Loads of woods for kids to play. Midges were out in force so definitely take your repellent. Great for dogs. Walks from the site, although loads of tracks exist that are not marked on the map. Walk to Denholm is nice where you can go for food or pub but uphill on the way back. Staff were lovely and really helpful. Toilets and showers were clean and functional, I did like the underfloor heating. If you chose to camp in the woodland part it's a 15-20 min walk uphill but they will transport all your kit for you.

Não gostou I thought it was quite expensive.
Can't understand why the woodland section is more expensive when you don't have easy access to all the facilities.
