Peace Place Pilgrim Bivouac

Понравилось I didnt stay because of the obnoxious behaviour of the owner.

Не понравилось I arrived and was relaxing but the owner came ranting over frightening my child with his aggression.
Apparently Id parked in the wrong place because unlike any campsite I have ever been to you can't park near your tent. The place had a very bad vibe.

Понравилось Very peaceful site in a rural setting. This is not your run of the mill site, being very organic and quirky which we liked. We tried the new shower which works well but does run rather hot, there is a sign to warn of this. The owners are very pleasant and helpful and always make time to stop and chat. Would come again.

Понравилось Excellent location; used it as a base for hiking the surrounding area. A back to basics wild camping site with minimal but more than adequate facilities, such as a compost toilet, shower, hot water urn and mains water outlet. There were also some domestic farm animals on the grounds, including a goat and chickens. The individual pitch I set up on was flat and secluded, which suited me. Overall I had a very pleasurable experience on the farm and would recommend it to anyone looking for a nearly wild camping experience.

Не понравилось Nothing. All was good.

Понравилось A wonderful experience. Took my kids, 4 & 2 years old camping for the first time. Teddy and Elizebeth were so kind and helpful. I highly recommend this place. We all loved it and will definitely be back!

Понравилось Owners were friendly enough. Help you out if they can. The location is close to the beach and a convenience store up the road.

Не понравилось Moment I arrived (around 1pm) till around half 8 at night all I could hear was awful loud music coming from another camper close by. It went on for hours and ruined the first day. Could see other campers weren't happy but owners said nothing about it. This place is billed as peaceful and quiet but I received nothing of the sort during first day.

От менеджера: Thank you for your remarks. We very much regret that you enjoyment was spolied. I was, however, very confused by your description of the circumstances. I have no recollection of campers on our site ever playing loud music.


You are quite right about our rule of ' no loud music to be played on site' and we have found that our campers follow this rule and we have never had to bring it to notice and to enforce it. Yet you clearly state that the music was coming from another camper 'close by'. On re-reading your post and noting the times that you helpfully include: 1pm till 8pm I realise that you must be referring to an event which took place on the neighbouring caravan park, Eastland Meadows. This was a one off, so called 'Family Day' which was unprecedented in our eleven years at this location. This event seemed to take the form of a festival at which live bands were playing and which involved the use of substantial amplification. The location of this P.A. was about two hundred and fifty yards from our solo camper pitches. The sound may have been mistaken to have be nearer than it was due to the clarity and lack of distortion. On being taken by surprise by this unwanted and intrusive sound this latter quality did, however, help in allowing it to be tolerable for many.

I do wish that you had consulted us on the day, whether complaining or just asking for an explanation. Through the course of the day I spoke to many of our campers and, although most would have preferred to do without the background music, everyone I spoke to felt that they were shocked at the start up of the music but found that it was within bounds of toleration, being fairly innocuous easy going tunes sung in by competent and dedicated vocalists. A small number of our guests found the music to be decent quality and enjoyable once they resigned themselves to it.

WE did not approve and were taken by surprise by a situation that was out of our control. Our frustration was eased and we felt reassured by these comments from guests. No-one complained directly to us and those who did ask for an explanation seemed satisfied. Nevertheless we will be in dialogue with Eastland Meadows management about the issue.

Понравилось Great place, close to nature. Lovely walk to the beach. Good place to relax and rest, peaceful and quiet

Понравилось This was actually an electric camper van pitch called Hector in an amazing organic smallholding. I was next to a shedding eucalyptus tree in an area of stunning biodiversity on the Dengie Peninsula. The chickens roam free and of course they crow in the morning which I loved. Elizabeth and Ted are great hosts who have kindly offered the opportunity to share their amazing space. I suspect the place will get mixed reviews depending on people’s expectations. It is indeed back to basics and that is much to its credit. It is quirky and individual and welcoming. The passages between the pitches were even hand cut with a scythe. I sincerely thank my hosts for the opportunity to stay and would have been happy to pay more. My phone signal was strong and I had uninterrupted wifi. The ground was uneven but that was not a problem to me.

Не понравилось I have my own facilities (including shower, toilet and hot water) onboard and therefor was not dependent on the compost lavatory. There was some noise escape from the neighbouring site (which is beyond the control of the hosts and I do not say a a criticism of this site). I would have preferred a larger pitch but recognise the sizing allows more people to share the experience. My view was interrupted by a fixed tent but I am grappling here to find criticism as the experience as a whole was wonderful.

От менеджера: thank you very much indeed. for those thoughts. Hector pitch has been extended taking into account your experience. The hot shower unit is now up and running, and we will look forward to seeing you again.
