Hidden Hideaway

Понравилось Small site, large pitches, quiet, excellent very clean facilities. Friendly, family run business.
Hope to have a return visit next year.

Понравилось Great location! Out of the way with amazing views. Facilities were perfect, 2 separate bathrooms with toilet, sink and shower. Made it much easier to get ready than in shower cubicles. All facilities within short walk of all pitches. Ellie was lovely and felt very looked after. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Понравилось Beautiful views, clean toilet and shower room, exceptional host. Animals around too which is amazing! This is a working farm so please be aware.

Ellie is so accommodating and gave us loads of tips of things to do, places to eat etc. You can even ask to see the tractors and be shown the farm.. great education for kids. Fire pits can be hired and wood purchased.

Ellie was even kind enough to lend us an electric hook up as ours broke on arrival. Such a small gesture but made our stay better.

The farm dogs, Fern and Bracken are an absolute joy.. beautiful dogs who love fuss but are also very respectful of you if dogs are not your thing.

The chickens think the lane is theirs so be careful on arrival and departure.. afterall, it is their home!! You are just a visitor.

We plan to visit again next season.. absolute 5* site for a peaceful and relaxing stay

Thank you Ellie 😊

Понравилось Great pitch sizes, lovely toilet and shower blocks in a wooden cabin, playground area for the kids and a lovely view.
Ellie was in touch regularly and popped over to see us each day to check on how we were and if we needed anything.
Will absolutely be going back next year!

Понравилось Stunning views, large flat pitches

Не понравилось Road through the farm yard not the best, owners dogs wondering free constantly trying to go in the tents and begging for food.

От менеджера: Thank you for your review we do read them and take all in to consideration, however it is always nice if you tell me things when you are on site and we can sort it even quicker, nothing was said to me during your stay.
My dogs are the bain of my life and unfortunately cant tell the difference between the guests that want them and the guests that don't, i do try and keep them away but when other guests actively call them up there it is very difficult.
The road through the farm, you are the first person to say something, it is a farm track i apologise it was not flat/level enough but I'm not sure i can really do anything about that and it also keeps people from going too fast through the yard where there are children and animals.
This was obviously not the site for you so i hope you find somewhere more to your taste for your next trip.

Понравилось Large pitches, electric included in price, central graveled access to all the pitches, rural location, minimal road noise if any. Friendly welcoming owners. Clean toilet/sink/shower cabin + washing up station and freezer. Everything you need.

Не понравилось This isn't really a dislike but the drinking water tap to the side of the shower cabin isn't in a very convenient location for filling up the on board water tank on most campervans unless you have a very long hose or drive your van onto the adjacent pitch. A tap on a free standing post closer to the driveway would be better. Luckily I had brought my own water and didn't need to fill up during my two night stay.

От менеджера: Hi thank you for your review. I hadn't actually thought of the location of the tap for motorhomes before and hadn't been told so it will be something that we add on for next year, and place in a convenient place.
Thank you

Понравилось Very peaceful considering it is a working farm. The toilet block and washing area were impeccably clean and everything worked as it should.
There were only 3 out of 10 pitches full during our stay which was a great pity. This delightful little site deserves more visitors. A beautiful rural area with some really nice walks in the local area and local villages.
The primary reason for our visit was to observe the eclipse and to look out for the Perseid Meteor shower and 6 planet parade. The sky is far darker than home but Leicester, Loughborough and Market Harborough give off a glow at low level. Nontheless we saw an amazing display of stars, shooting stars and satellites.
Loads of wildlife to observe, we watched groups if Hares at dawn each morning. Ospreys, Red Kites, Buzzards Barn Owls all put in an appearance as did Swallows, Swifts, Lapwings, Linnets and many more.
We will be back to this lovely little site, hopefully it will have returned to green grassland and recovered from the drought.

Не понравилось Nothing to fault here.

Понравилось Huge pitch & a 6m gap to the next pitch.
Clean toilets/showers.
Peaceful, other than a 5.45am wake up from dozens of mooing cows being moved (only 1 of our 2 night stay). Is a working farm.
Nice friendly owner.

Не понравилось Would be nice if fridge had freezer section for freezer blocks for coolboxes.
No real shade, so bring a gazebo.

От менеджера: Thank you for taking the time to write a review, we do look at them all and take notes of things to improve. Just to let you know, there is a freezer for guests to use in the honesty shed along with freezer blocks for you to borrow, if you had asked i could have pointed you in the right direction.
And yes we are a working farm so sometimes the cows are going to MOO unfortunately there is nothing i can do about that, but its better than a motorway or flight path so you can t have it all ways!

Понравилось The wide open spaces, the glorious views, the accessibility to Rutland water, melton Mowbray and other areas of interest, the friendliness and helpfulness of the owner …. Excellent

Понравилось Peaceful setting
Fast response to any issues
Was happy for us to have friends over for the day

Не понравилось Showers went from freezing to dangerously hot (especially for children) and just dripped when other taps weee on

Very, very windy!

Owners dogs were free to roam which for us was fine as we have dogs (although not with us) but may not suit all campers. They were very friendly but not sure I agree with campers dogs having to be on lead at all times when owners dogs were free to roam. If we weren’t there to keep an eye the dogs would have been in the tents!

От менеджера: I apologise for the showers at the time we were struggling with the water pressured and lack of water, due to the continued drought in the area, we have though had a booster pump fitted so water pressure is back up to full force and the showers working as they should.

Not a lot i can do about the wind I'm afraid and as far as i am aware it was like it for the most of the country.

The dogs, the bain of my life as guests keep feeding them and actively encouraging them on to site, even though i try and keep them away, unfortunately they cant tell when one set of guests that have been feeding and playing with them leave and another set of guests that don't want them arrive.
