Alpaca Area - Ash bell tent (four person)
Liked: Wow, what a lovely place this was! Great little (almost off grid) site with a cute little pub, nice food and drinks and a great atmosphere. Child friendly and the pool table kept our older child entertained, he even made some little friends. We stayed in the Ash bell tent in the alpaca paddock - highly recommend. Our 6 and 3 year old loved it so much and really enjoyed interacting with the gorgeous alpacas, as did we! The tent was spacious and the beds were made up ready which was ideal given that we stayed with young children as it saved a lot of messing about. Can't fault the location - felt like a real adventure and was so peaceful in the most perfect surroundings. The river was perfect for paddling in and in the warmer months great for a swim. Lots of beautiful woodland and far enough from busy roads so was quiet and peaceful. Our son described the site as "paradise". The staff were really lovely and made our stay extra special. Great hospitality and really friendly. They told us about the alpacas, other local wildlife and always made a fuss of the kids which they enjoyed. We've already booked to stay again as we loved it so much! Thank you for a fantastic little break away!
Disliked: Compost toilet didn't really bother me and the kids and I loved reading about the reasons why it's more eco friendly but my husband wasn't keen!

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch (family, maximum 6 metres)
Liked: The serenity of the area. Next to the river. No music rule was good. Gave us time to sitback and relax. Alpacas were great, just get to go at feeding time.
Disliked: Take your own toilet. Remember, there are young boys who cant aim straight. You have been warned.

From the manager: This is a real shame as we pride ourselves on maintaining our facilities to a high standard. We have an hourly rota on the toilets to ensure they are nice and clean but obviously this is not a fool proof system and we do require our guests to share any concerns with us immediately. Please be reassured, we would have 100% acted upon any information given if there was a problem with either sets of toilets. We are sorry this impacted on your stay.

Kingfisher cabin (seven person)
Liked: A beautiful spot next to the river, the pub has great beer and food, the compost toilets were really clean (and don’t smell), our cabin was clean and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our 2 night stay and will definitely return.

Non-electric forest floor tent pitch (small, two person)
Liked: What a beautiful spot this is: great welcoming owners, alpacas up close and personal, river just by the side of you, great location and even had pizza delivered to our tent. The pub being there was a cheeky bonus too, the price of the pint made me happy! Will be coming here again! Amazing price
Disliked: Not a dislike more of a warning that we had the woodland pitch which is gorgeous but is small, a bit of a walk from your car and toilets. But I’d be staying again as this is not off putting.
