Liked: Friendly chilled atmosphere. Eco friendly toilets which were clean and well maintained with toilet paper provided. Had a fun stay. Nice to have a fire and fire pits and wood provided if needed. Would definitely come back again.
Disliked: Only dislike was you could sometimes hear the main road, but this didn't impact on sleep.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Great to hear you had a good time. And pleased you want to come back again. I think the traffic was slightly busier than usual as it was a bank holiday weekend but also pleased to hear it didn’t disturb your sleep. We have increased the number of fire pits we rent out so more people can have one.

From the manager: Thank you for the review. I think as we have a small campsite it does stay pretty quiet. We make a point of checking on the compost loos to make sure they are well stocked with loo paper and sawdust and sweeping them so they are pleasant to use

Liked: The field is quite big, enough space for everyone, the bio loo together with bio shower is a great idea, (water was cold, but that wasn't a problem). Not that far from the beach, peace and quiet. First time from very long time I had a good sleep 😃 Definitely we'll return.

Liked: It's a beautiful scenic location! Wild flowers, hawthorn and blackberries in abundance, swifts and sparrows soaring. Wide open space to look at the stars and sunset. Very clean and private compost loos. The outdoor shower was wonderful to use in warm weather. The firepit we rented was perfect. Staff incredibly friendly and caring. Not to far from lovely farm shop and beach (by bus or cycle). Close to bus stop. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Liked: Great campsite with lovely owners. We really enjoyed how peaceful this place was. Breakfasts were spent sat watching the horses across the field and there are nearby pubs within walking distance for an evening meal. The eco friendly approach of compost toilets and a cold shower over a stream should definitely be copied by other sites.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. How lovely that you had the time to enjoy watching the horses. Peter was pleased you like the shower and the compost loos which he researched and then built.
