What visitors say
Good points , nice clean camp site . Staff pleasant and courteous., small shop on site . Good for walking and cycling. Bad points We had 3 e bikes stolen , two at the beginning of the holiday, and my son joined us and his was stolen on the last night of staying . Please be aware that there are two small gated entrances in the bottom field . These lead onto the forest track and then onto the main road out of the site. There is no CCTV whatsoever . . Last but not least it’s a free for all for pitching in the bottom field opposite the toilet block . There seems to be no staff directing and showy campers where to park . Dogs not on leads and roaming round the units .

Super campsite, great location, plenty of walks and cycling trails. Toilet/shower facilities were dated but clean. Stayed on a hard standing pitch, reasonably level. Grass pitches looked like they were on a slope. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Busy over the weekend but midweek days were lovely. Took the grey route down to the river - be warned it's very steep and there are no easy routes up from the river. 20k steps to and from the Saracens head! Bathrooms were kept clean. And the great range of icecreams were most welcome.

This is a great place to pitch-up. Ample facilities on site for every level of camper. Great little on site shop and pizza van on a Saturday which accommodate for dietary needs. What makes this site really nice is the staff particularly Keith and Ann who offered lots of support and tips for things to see and do. We have already booked to come back.
