Lotus bell tent
Liked: Nice quiet location, plenty of space and not overcrowded at all. Fire pits available. Perfect view of sunset from our bell tent. we arrived during heat wave so extremely hot! Not a lot of shade to shelter from sun, a small umbrella was provided for shading but the lack of showers was really noticed on our stay this time to cool off. Showers would make the site 5 star but it is basic camping and the compost toilets are brilliant. No smell at all even in the heat and kept really clean and tidy.

Liked: Nice quiet location, easy (driving) range of Ilfracombe, Eco-Toilets surprisingly good.
Disliked: Not really a dislike, but a shower or two would have been a plus.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. Due to the location and nature of our pop up site we are unfortunately unable to provide showers, but this fact is clearly advertised prior to booking and guests are welcome to bring their own shower tent to site on their pitch.
