The Meadow non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Nice quiet site, with plenty of open space, great not to be looking onto another pitch. The owner was really friendly and helpful. The toilets were clean and within easy reach of our pitch. Shame it rained, but we will be back.

The Meadow non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Peaceful field next to horse enclosures. Nice walks around the farm for the dog. Basic off grid facilities, but clean and presentable. Didn’t see anyone from the farm so left alone. Allowed a campfire. Field level enough if you stay a couple of meters in from the fence line. We didn’t bother with levellers. Very little phone coverage so no Spotify but nice to be away from tech.
Disliked: Little pricey for one night off grid as had to join a club, but as it was our first outing in the camper on the last weekend of the Easter holidays we were grateful to get somewhere last minute that was a lovely setting.

From the manager: hello thanks for visiting i really appreciate you choosing to come and it is a lovely spot to find especially for a first park up really happy to be that part of your journey..Now that you are a member it gives you access to lots of other sites around the country that you can book direct with so hopefully you'll be making a nice saving and supporting smaller sites.. thanks again and look forward to welcoming you in the future...

The Meadow non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Nice area, lots of things to do locally. Ground was dry (finally!) and the site was not too busy so we had plenty of space.
Disliked: Road to get onto the pitches was very very bumpy and narrow. Facilities were not good - the shower was dirty and unusable. We were also told there was water but couldn’t find it. Owner was not to be found.
