The Hop Farm

喜欢 I had my wedding next door at the shires oast, so I used little bell tent Hotel to pitch me 6 tents and I brought my motorhome and a few others pitched their own tents. We had two night here, first night campfire and second was the wedding next door and both was amazing! Sue in the office was amazing from booking start to finish. She has been helpful with putting my our separate bookings together and my constant emails getting it all sorted! Would highly recommend!

来自经理: Thank you for choosing to stay here and that everything went to plan.
We hope to see you again.

喜欢 Only thing good was that it was close to where we wanted to be. Not sure how this place got a 4 star rating- that must be years old.

不喜欢 Everything is the best description I can give. From arrival onwards this site does not know what it is suppose to be. First all you see are trucks full off cars, an outdoor car wash and cordoned off fields, follow the road and you come to a reception barrier. Staff were prepared for sign in, so that was okay but there was a big warning sign when I was asked if we are part of the wedding party. No we were not but there was a group of around 20-24 people in a couple of bell tents set up just in front of us. Why we were placed behind a big group I can't understand as there were plenty of other empty pitches on other camping fields. But no, we were right behind the biggest group. First night, the noise continued and increased due to drinking to well past midnight, although to rules stated quiet time is from 10 pm onwards and started again from 7.30 am on when they prepared breakfast... Toilet/ shower facilities- never seen anything so dirty. We were given codes to access the facilities but the lock to the Women's block is broken, door permanently open. When I first checked it out, I noticed mud, leaves and dry dirt around the entrance which was still there when we left 2 days later, I didn't notice anyone cleaning the toilet/ shower facilities in the time we were there or saw anything different between morning to ev, same dirt was still there. No privacy to wash yourself, all open space and with an unlocked door I didn't feel comfortable to go there to wash. Showers- even worse. You open the door and you are in the shower, no space to put up your clothes or towel yo keep them dry unless you leave everything outside on the hooks - not an option for me - again unlocked door one reason but I really don't think leaving my clothes outside is appropriate nowadays.
Camping field - that's what it was a field with a trail track for cars/ caravan or motorhome to go around and then done waterpoints and electricity hook ups, grass not even mowed.

来自经理: I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay the weekend of the 12th September.
The car transporters, car wash and car boot field(also used for hot air ballooning) are before you enter the campsite.
As you had put on your booking form that you wanted to be close to the facilities C field where you were is the best option, however had you asked to move to either a non-electric field or the other electric field (which is prone to flooding) when you looked at your pitch we would have happily moved you.
There were 6 bell tents on the electric pitches and 2 motorhomes on the hard standing with electric pitches where the bride and groom were staying.
There were checks at 10pm and no music or loud noise could be heard, had we been notified there was a disturbance after this time we would have come out, our mobile number is printed on the front of all check-in cards.
As there had been a lot of rain, the facilities which had 2 daily cleans, the floors will become muddy due to constant use.
Every shower and toilet has a lock with a hook on the inside and outside for hanging clothes and towels.
The grass was cut on the 28th August but unfortunately not since due to the wet weather we have been experiencing.

喜欢 Very friendly place to stay, it was quiet not many campers. Toilet and shower block very clean, lots of open spaces

喜欢 Relaxed vibe, huge fields with loads of room. Great walks along the river and local countryside

不喜欢 Could be more toilets further into the fields but... Not the end of the world

喜欢 Beautiful site, lovely to walk around and walk along the river
Water point right by the pitch
We were near the facilities but the site is so vast, a lot of people were driving from their pitches to the toilets etc.

不喜欢 Our pitch was next to the path which in itself was fine, but the EHU point for our pitch was on the other side of the path so our cable was on the path. This upset a couple of people.

I will pass on your comment re the electric point and cable to the manager and seif it is possible to change this.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

喜欢 99.9% of the place

不喜欢 The large family opposite our patch was quite disrespectful with noise talking like it was 12 o’clock in the afternoon when in fact it was gone 1am was meant to be a child’s birthday party but turned out to be more for them to have a party

来自经理: Thank you for choosing to stay with us and that you enjoyed yourselves despite the loud talking, unfortunately some people do not realise how far noise can travel in an open field.
We look forward to your next visit with quieter neighbours.

喜欢 A HUGE site so didn’t feel too crowded. Great for group gatherings and free and easy launch access to the river for SUP, kayaking or a dip.
Good position for visiting local sites of interest.
Toilets/showers were clean and pleasant to use. I had EHU and water on pitch.

不喜欢 Not a dislike but for awareness, a longer than average EHU lead may be needed - I had to park “badly” half on grass and gravel to attach mine 😂.

I will check the length of cable required as on Pitchup it says "a cable measuring at least 5 metres is needed for the electric hook-ups " and if a longer length required this can be amended.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

喜欢 Nice flat pitch

不喜欢 Maybe more to do

来自经理: Thank you for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to leave a review as they do help people when deciding where to stay.
When you book on Pitch-up we do not advertise as having any entertainment. We have country and river walks with the emphasis on being outdoors enjoying each other’s company.
We hope you will visit us again despite there not being any entertainment.

喜欢 As good as always, good facilities, friendly reception.

不喜欢 Road has gone really bad. Need fixing

来自经理: Thank you for your loyalty in choosing to stay with us and that you enjoy your visits.
Maintenance are going to fix the road way to the Americas field as soon as possible.
We look forward to welcoming you again.

喜欢 Fields were well cut and mostly flat. Toilet block and showers were clean.

不喜欢 Driving between fields, ie the Americana field had very deep potholes full of rainwater. None too pleasing when my new vehicle had only just been purchased the day before. Had the potholes not been there I could have used my mobility scooter to access the toilets etc.
