Unpowered grass and earth tent site
Liked: Amazing campsite!! So peaceful, we felt extremely safe and content. Gliding club not too far away so amazing to watch. Clean facilities, toilets had a light and large mirror which was great! Very clean! Would definitely return. We were slightly lost, our own fault on taking the wrong turn and missing the sign but Carol found us and helped us locate the campsite! Grass not too long & soft ground great for pegs!
Disliked: The only one thing to suggest would be fairy lights or a few little lights on a timer for late at night. Due to being surrounded by hills it was very very dark and it would’ve felt a little cosy to have a few lights. There was only 2 others on site so if this was busier it would’ve been lighter so maybe just use lights when less campers are on site.

Unpowered grass caravan site
Liked: Nice little site. Virtually no traffic passing so very peaceful. 2 clean portaloo type toilets. Local pub - good for food 20 minutes stroll away. Walks from site up to the White horse and onto the Cleveland way - trails in the woods aren't signposted so easy to get lost in the woods.
Disliked: Feel it's a bit overpriced at £25 a night as no shower or washing up sink ( which we did know before booking) but nevertheless would stay again for the location.

Liked: This is a lovely campsite! It is simple - a field with two immaculate loos, a standpipe for drinking water and a rubbish bin - and it is charming. It nestles in the valley and feels enclosed, calm, safe, quiet and friendly. The owners were also very nice. The location was great for breaking our journey from Tyneside down to the south. And the horse is amazing!

Liked: This was our second visit to Church Farm, it is absolutely gorgeous. Especially this time with the cows visiting! The children loved them. Great views, flat land for pitching, great facilities and good price. Other campers were friendly. The friendly owners make a point of popping round to see if all is ok. What more can you ask!
Disliked: Nothing!
