Liked: Only stayed one night but absolutely loved the site. Quiet and peaceful. Lovely views. Facilities excellent, only trailer type toilets/showers but very good quality and clean. Would definitely stay there again. Very easy access just off A303. Lovely village, walkable albeit down a steep hill.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Liked: Beautiful location, close to A303 but little traffic noise, clean toilet and shower block, plenty of space, two nice (if pricey) pubs about 15 minute walk away in pretty village of Hindon. Well maintained grass. Option of electric hook-up if needed.
Disliked: There was a party of young people over the other side of the field in several large tents who were quite loud with shouting and music until past 1am which wasn’t ideal. Hopefully we were just unlucky and normally the site would be quiet overnight.
