Electric optional grass tent pitch
Liked: Lovely working farm Campsite is very well looked after Nice and spacious Clean toilets and showers Alpaca farm up the road is cute Beautiful mountain views
Disliked: Shop is only open short periods of time although there is a doorbell for needed. We got a camp fire for £20 yet on the second night we couldn't pursue wood. The fire kept the midges away at night. For some reason we had alot flies in our tent.
