What visitors say

Sarah Kennedy

The campsite is nice and it's very easy going, the booking process was easy and simple and I like that you just turn up and pitch up and left alone and to it. Very quiet and peaceful campsite, a nice relaxing place to get away. Family and dog friendly which is always a win in my eyes. Nearby pub only opens on certain times and days so be sure to check before going down! Disappointed the cafe was closed and looked as though it had been closed for a very long time maybe we are out of season for the cafe?.. a few areas of the site are overgrown and look derelict, only one block of toilets/showers were open but the open ones are very clean and showers are lovely and warm. The walks and veiws around the site are beautiful. All in all we had a lovely stay and we would book here again just some areas let the campsite down.. the website tells a different story to what you find when you get there.. if you can overlook that it's a lovely site.

We only spent 1 evening here in our motorhome, and it was absolutely lovely and peaceful, the pitch spaces are more than generous, and seeing the chickens roaming around was wonderful. A slight mechanical issue in the morning resulted in an SOS call to Claire, and she came to assist straight away, and couldn't have been more helpful (once we managed to work out how to open her bonnet :) ) We can't wait to go back and spend a bit longer there.

We booked a pitch well in advance as we were going to be camping over the August bank holiday. The booking process was straightforward and Claire's communications and instructions were excellent. The campsite is divided by rows of trees and shrubs which helps to break up the site, makes it feels smaller than it is and reduces sound bleed from the other pitches. At night the trees provide a perfect frame for a star filled sky (as long as there's no cloud cover). The facilities were good, toilets and showers were clean and there was always hot water. There are 2 fridges, a freezer and power points for campers to use. Electric hook ups are available too. The Feed the Animals sessions and adventure playground were very popular with the children on the campsite. The playground is away from the camping pitches so the sounds of children playing doesn't intrude those wanting some peace and quiet. The rural setting means there is an abundance of wildlife large and small, the dawn chorus was a joy to wake up to each morning. There is a campsite 'shop' which sells their eggs and honey, logs, kindling and fire pits for hire. Claire was very helpful and friendly and was keen to make sure we had everything we needed. We loved our stay, it was very relaxing and peaceful, we will be back.
