Liked: Lochside pitch was beautiful. Ducklings wandering around the van. Recently chipped, huge pitches, all well spaced amongst the trees. Fabulous cafe onsite (open Wed to Sun, 10 til 4) which was very reasonably priced.
Disliked: Toilet block needs updated but we knew this when we booked and mainly used our own facilities.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The cabin was great - had everything we needed, easy to regulate temerature. The flexibility of the boooking. The location is amazing - in the this quiet valley away from everything, really. Beautiful walk nearby along the river. Use of the fire pit and lots of wood to burn. Friendly, helpful staff. The whole site is spacious and spread out. Great if you're trying to get away from society!
Disliked: Could do with some shelves in and outside the bathroom to rest things on. Especially in the shower where there is nowhere to put your clothes or bag. The Wi-Fi in the cabin was mostly ok, but did drop out sometimes and was low-bandwidth. A little annoying as the TV didn't work, so we were reliant on the internet connection to watch Eurovision

Liked: We were here with our campervan for our second visit, we absolutely love it here. So peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Right next to a woodland walk, you can fish on the pond or just watch all the ducks and wildlife like I did! The cafe served the best coffee and cakes (I didn't try the menu, but I will next time). As I was informed on arrival, the shower block is a bit dated but it was spotless and the shower was powerful and hot. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Liked: Pitches and location fantastic. We have 2 dogs and the walking is very accessible with gorgeous walks along the river with impressive gorge and through mature beech woodland. Staff very friendly and cafe on site was excellent
Disliked: Toilet and shower block and dishwashing area. Clearly done a huge amount of improvement work on the grounds but site a bit let firm by the facilities.
