What visitors say
Booked a last-minute overnight stay at this new site and was really impressed. It’s a lovely, pretty location with fabulous views. The site is small but really well laid out, and we were greeted at the site house and shown to our pitch, which was a nice personal touch. There are still a few bits being finished off as it’s a work in progress, but that’s easy to overlook when everything else is so peaceful and well thought out. Definitely one to watch as it develops further — we’ll happily return!

Be aware! I stayed for only one night. I had booked through Pitchup.com for 4 nights. The second day we were asked to leave based on personal concerns with our ‘wellbeing’, regardless the campsite had been unavailable for days to arrange adequate assistance for a disabled person or amend the booking prior check in. In the end, we were promised a full refund processed immediately and pressured to leave so it ‘would make the owners feel better’ because of the poor weather conditions, not because of personal fault of ours or breach of policies and from that moment we never saw that refund again. Tried to contact the campsite for days and they keep ignoring communication. Don’t fall for this if it should happen to you. Very likely our booked spot was given to others, while we were charged for 4 nights and forced to stay 1.

Great views and location . Hardstanding elec hook up pitches are very close to owners house so didnt feel private. Toilet block wasnt the cleanest and looks like its been half built for quite some time now . No hand dryers or paper towels to dry hands, bins were overflowing the 2 nights we stayed so obviously hadnt been cleaned or checked in that time. Shower screens dirty , toilet & shower room floors dirty . Has potential to be a great site with some pitch upgrades & renovation of toiket block completed and cleaned regular but as it stands its overpriced
