Liked The hosts were incredibly welcoming and very proud of their site. They also championed the local area and see real potential in what their gorgeous site can become. They should also be very proud of what it already is.
The butterfly farm is well worth a look in (pre book) and the cafe on site probably has the best pizza around. Oh and the milkshakes are dangerously good.
The site itself is simple, a very slight slope but flatter than most sites I’ve stayed in and I slept very well.
The facilities are good. The lot wash station is just right and the shower block is set up in the stable building. They kept the stable aesthetic which I thought was really cool.
Disliked I didn’t dislike anything, but people read this bit and it’s worth mentioning some things.
The site is growing, currently it’s an amazing hidden spot in a county that’s a tourist hotspot. The road in is a little bumpy, that’s ok. There isn’t a pool and a karaoke night. If that’s what you’re after you may need to look elsewhere.
It’s the kind of campsite that I went to as a kid. The kind of site that got me excited about going outdoors, under canvas. These sites are rare and should be cherished.

Liked A simple approach to camping. Everything that we NEEDED and nothing more. A diverse group of fellow campers and short walks to amazing views. A soul cleansing site and the staff kept the place spotless.
